Blizzard's Mike Morhaime - we can expect both SC2 and D3 in 2010

Read the article carefully. He is all but predicting Diablo 3 will be released in 2010:

Despite the delay of StarCraft II into 2010, Blizzard says the release of Diablo III will not be affected by the shift. "I will confirm that the move of StarCraft into 2010 does not affect the release schedules of any of our other games," said Blizzard president Mike Morhaime.

When asked whether that means Diablo III and StarCraft II could both be released in 2010, as Blizzard had previously said to expect a major Blizzard release each year, Morhaime's response implied that possibility."We haven't announced any release dates on any future title. And I'll also reiterate that the [move of] StarCraft into next year does not impact the schedule," said Morhaime, who then, with a slight laugh, added: "And so it would be correct to conclude that you could expect two releases of Blizzard next year. But I will not make any conclusion as to what those titles will be."

Personally, I expect D3 to release in 2011 given Blizzard's history with or without a SC2 delay. Blizzard games usually take 2.5 to 3.5 years from announcement to release. Anyone believe this is realistic?

I think it will be SC2 and Blizzards new MMO just to disagree with you.

A new MMO would be an equally exciting release. But I highly doubt Blizzard would release a brand new MMO next year that has not even been announced yet. It just isnt like Blizzard.

get the peoples hopes up and shatter it like a cheap vase i say they'll come out when they do and won't belive any date until its less then a week off

I can wait...

says d3's RD will be unaffected. so i'm thinking sc2 and their mmo in 2010. xmas = d3. (or that stupid 9/9/09 theory)
