Just about any Blizzard game is a GOTY candidate by default, if only because of their rabid  fanbase.

I'll still wait on Starcraft 2 until they release all three parts in a bundle, though

 

I guess mark down 2014 on your calendar. You won't be getting a sc2 battle chest before then.

Nah, I'd wager they have released all of them by early 2013 since they won't redo the engine, so it's fair to assume they'll bundle them later in the same year.

Besides, I have around 50 games lined up, so I'll be busy for a fair while regardless.


Well, someone from Blizzard estimated that Heart of the Swarm (next game) will take 18 months from the release of Wings of Liberty. With how long it took for SC2 to actually come out and considering their 18 month estimate for the next game, you'd be foolish they will have it out by early 2013, let alone out by their hypothetical 18-month per game estimate which would put Legacy out by mid 2013. Like I said, 2014 at the earliest for a battle pack.

Which, as the interviewee said, is pure speculation (and it's taken them around a year to produce expansion packs in the past), so it could go either way.


And nothing's stopping them from bundling all three once they've all been released.  Chaos Rising was bundled with Dawn of War 2 just about immediately after it was out, and it's certainly not the only example - bundles seem to be all the rage these days.
