World of Starcraft News Summary [edit]

An article published at TradingMarkets.com points to the chinese Caijing Magazine that claims that an “industry insider” was quoted as saying that China’s leading online game operator Netease.com will be responsible for Blizzard’s next big MMO project *drumroll* Starcraft Online.

Netease CEO Ding Lei didn’t confirm the market saying, adding that the company is observing [...]

Blizzard’s Vice President of Development Itzik Ben Bassat says “When we announce our next MMORPG, it’s not going to be another WoW.” [Full story]

The Blizzard World Wide Invitational 2008 is over and as we all know Diablo 3 was announced.
