We won't see this game for years and years. So stop caring about it right now. He probably called it a next gen mmo because it's for the next generation of consoles after this one.

LOL I'd play it.

I've been hearing about this for a while now, but I've been hearing that it's a new IP.

In all honesty though I'd have to think it's Starcraft (hell yeah...I'll take it over Warcraft any day).

I know that the phrase "next-gen" is a general industry buzzword, and people apply it to PC gaming as much as anywhere else, but it's concievable that Blizzard's next MMO project is aimed at the console market.

It would make sense.

Yes, World of Warcraft's combat system is immensely boring. That's why it has 8 million subscribers -- good logic you have there.

Why another MMO? Perhaps Blizzard could make a decent single player game with a multiplayer feature for once without charging us a monthly fee? Or perhaps i'm just being cynical?

I can't wait for a new MMO from blizzard... I have been trying to replace WOW for years and tried 6-8 games so far and none have come near WOW. The expansions and crap ruined WOW for me, nothing worse than working months for gear and than seeing an expansion over the horizon and realizing you just wasted months of time for nothing.

New? MMO? Won't happen because it wouldn't make sense. One of the main draws of WoW was the familiarity of the land, lore, and characters. When you have brilliant environments like Diablo, Startcraft, and... Diablo (I love the Diablo world)why would they do something stupid like make a new environment no one knows anything about?

Well, they did work on 2 WarCraft games at the same time.
WarCraft III set the stage for WoW, so StarCraft 2 could be doing the same...

I hope it's not a Diablo MMO. I say leave Diablo as it is, or create another Diablo game with better graphics but mostly the same gameplay. Besides, fantasy MMO's are tired, and there's too much competition in that market. I would be really excited if it turned out to be Universe of Starcraft, with similar gameplay to WoW.

I kinda feels like the old dragon slumbering quietly, and suddenly, an adventurer which you spare some decade ago come back at your lair's entrance.

The adventurers are taking baby steps, double checking everything, taking forever to advances throught 3 rooms filled with baddies (supposing they don't wipe and the project comes to fullfillment).

The adventurer better's have good poetry, cause after I eat his group, this will determine if I keep him to entertain me (and pays him), if I send him away, or if I want a desert! For now, it seems I have quite sometimes to sleep before he enters the final room...:P

I, personally, would like to see an updated Diablo from an FPS perspective. Starcraft might be interesting, but how could you work a military RTS game into an MMO from the perspective of the individuals? It will be interesting to see where they go with this. I like WOW and currently play it, but it is looking quite dated. Something new would be welcome. I played both Diablo games quite a bit and would like to get a new and fresh look to it instead of the isometric perspective they currently have. *shrug* Guess we'll have to wait and see what they do and where they go.

with the exception of the excellent EVE Online. There is a black hole of good Space based MMO's. and even EVE is considered to be too complex for casual gamers. so the real niche is an easily accessible space based MMO.

that leads one to believe that Starcraft may be the front runner. Hopefully it's not just WoW with new new textures. Since the abysmal mess that is SWG, i'm dying for a space based MMO that has some real space combat in it. The thought of flying corairs or the carriers is pretty appealing to me.

although a Lost Vikings MMO would be awfully sweet.

Didn't everyone pretty much already know this? Other than a release date or what product branding they are giving it (Diablo, StarCraft, Warcraft, new IP (haha)), it's been known for some time that they are working on an "unanounced MMO that is not a WoW Expansion." This is not really new news.

I wonder if by "next gen" he means console generations or maybe he is just referring to the PC hardware that will be required to run the game.

Please further explain your dumb ignorant sentence. How exactly has Blizzard fallen? They're all ridiculously rich and on top of that they're having a movie made for their game by Peter Jackson. Good job on your logic there.

3 weeks are already more than enough forANY game to prove itself. there's nothing wrongwith his decision.to think that somebody can't criticize wow just becoz he neverwasted his life togo all the way to 70is the stupidity common among narrow-minded fanboys. is that what you have in your mind too? hope not.

I think we desperately need a good, new, sci-fi MMORPG.

Let's pray, therefore, that Starcraft is the IP.

3 weeks are already more than enough forANY game to prove itself. there's nothing wrongwith his decision.to think that somebody can't criticize wow just becoz he neverwasted his life togo all the way to 70is the stupidity common among narrow-minded fanboys. is that what you have in your mind too? hope not.

It takes about 3 weeks for most illiterate children to get fed up of wow, they sell all their characters clothes to buy something from the AH in the belief its going to make them all powerful, it doesnt, then they spend the rest of the time wandering the major cities begging higher lvl players for money, then they get bored and stop playing because their sub ran out.

To say Wow got 8 million subscribers even though its been around for 3 years and according to you sucks through marketing and advertising is incredibly stupid, you think its that easy, if it was how comes the might of Sony couldn't make a Wow beater?

Its also nearer to 10 million subscribers than 8 million.
