I'm hoping for another StarCraft after they get done with World of Warcraft, the MMORPG that is coming out hopefully sometime in this decade.  Hopefully WoW will come out well after Galaxies so I won't have to worry about paying two online subscritption fees.

I thought Starcraft already gave Blizzard a license to print money...
Apparently now they'll have two of them

By then I would not be surprised at all if the subscription was bumped up to $15 just because they know they can.

I thought I read around they were going to try and make it more affordable. Think about it - they have probably hundreds of thousands of set customers, more than enough to meet cost, and if you compare sales of previous games, I think they'll end up with up to a million worldwide.
Hopefully, they'll try and "give a little back" by way of lower rates. I want to buy it, but I hate damn monthly rates. I'm an english major, not a damn trust fund baby!

Here's a nice little review by Games First that gives a bit of info on the game and some screenshots (speaking of Worlds of Warcraft here). It's nothing new (the article is form before WC3 was released) but still gives us a welcome glimpse at Blizzard's ambitious next project.

Right now, as I am really getting good at Night Elves, they're really good against any race... with Undead being the really only hard one to fight back.
Late game, Night Elves do good against Orcs with Dotc to combat the melee units they have, and the Dott to cyclone and storm crow just in case of air. Dryads help to take away bloodlust which is good, and do some good support too.
Against UD, you really repeat the same strat with a good mixture of both Druids and Dryads. You just gotta be able to micro good too 
Early game though, as we all know, huntress rush is infamous.. very..

I wasn't too intent on playing Warcraft III being a CandC fan but then I played a pirated version from a friend and the game was awesome! So I went out and bought it and I have to say it was well worth the investment.
Right now I am constantly playing Arkguil Tower Defense 3.11 on Battle.Net. I have to say that I am getting to be quite an expert at it.
Anyways, what are your B.Net names around here?
I'm on as ArcticRain.

SC was really fast paces. I can't speak for WC2, because I don't own it and I've only seen it in action a few times, but I think it may be even faster. WC3 is a bit longer, but nothing next to the time it takes to play an AoK2 or Galactic Battlegrounds game. C&C games are almost in another genre, so many things are different than with other RTS games. Things I don't really like Besides, the action is neater in Blizzard's games.
Not to diss AoK2, its pretty fun, but its not my favorite. I never got into C&C though, but I can see how some people can like it over Starcraft. So, Blizzard = King of RTS.

Warcraft III really doesn't take that long. Most of the games I've been in on Battle.net have been over in less than 30 minutes.
