I had that dilemma a while back when diablo 2 came out. Again when NWN hit. Then BioWare decided to start making games for consoles and that just killed them from the competition. Blizzard almost made a console game (Ghost) but thankfully nothing happened of it. As such Blizzard wins hands down. In fact they win the worldz.

^well unless you count handhelds then bioware is also making sonic rpg,but yeah both are awesome devs and bliz doesnt rush out the games like alot of companys which i like alot from them

Blizzard, they never put out a lemon. That is why they teased us with Starcraft Ghost for what? 4 years? Before putting it on "indefinite hold" or whatever, where it isn't canceled but not being worked on. Bioware can't claim the same.

Blizzard, when they release a game, you know it is quality.

Diablo 3 is already 4 years in development. Just how the hell they put the lid on for so long and then blew up the intarwebs with screens and vids?

I like their way of "it's done when it's done".

I personally have to go with Bioware since I never played Diablo, don't like MMO's, and played more C&C then War/Starcraft. Plus I absolutely love Mass Effect. Since both Starcraft 2 and Red Alert 3 are due up soon we'll see which I get more into. Maybe it'll affect my opinion.

bioware

Diablo is not an RPG and is in no way similar to Baldur's Gate.  You have skills, but it is essentially an action game.  There are no choices to be made other than picking skills and swapping out weapons.

I give that post a 9.3.

blizzard would dunk on bioware, kick em in the face and have sex with thier mommas

right now, Bioware, after Starcraft II, well we'll see.

Blizzard easily , I've played Starcraft for atleast 6 years and I'm still playing Warcraft 3 - never got into BG
