It’s official! Okay, no it’s not. Blizzard has been teasing the gaming world with its evolving homepage ice picture, and after this latest update, the planets certainly appear to be aligning for the announcement of World of StarCraft, or whatever they decide to call the new Massively Multiplayer Online game set in the StarCraft universe.

The StarCraft MMO has been rumored for a long time. It was reported as a sure thing for a brief moment in time back in May 2007 that it would be unveiled in South Korea at a Blizzard event, but that didn’t happen. Now with the upcoming release of StarCraft 2, what better time to release the StarCraft MMO than when they already got StarCraft on the brain?

Looks pretty clear to me. If that’s not good enough, take a gander at this:

The rune to the bottom left of the “face” is quite clearly the exact same as the Protoss symbol. Blizzard has already stated that they will be announcing a new game at their Worldwide Invitational, so it’s not just indicating StarCraft II again. They’ve also had job openings listed for “Next-Gen MMO” on their site for a while now. This all seems to point very rigidly in the StarCraft MMO direction, don’tcha think?

Damn it. I really wish this game would be Diablo 3, but they want to stall us with WoW sequels and StarCraft II.

Well when they probably make more money off WOW than they made off Diablo, Diablo 2 and all the Diablo expansions combined why wouldn't they want to make another MMORPG and release as many expansions as they can? And it has been much longer since Starcraft saw a new game than Diablo so it makes more sense to make Starcraft 2 than Diablo 3.
