I hope they spend all that time redoing the graphics. I really, really, REALLY do not want the Big D to look like another steaming pile of WarCraft. Don't get me wrong, I loved the WarCraft RTS games but a cartoony Diablo (which it looked in the videos to some extent) is the last thing we need. Diablo needs to be a dark, blood-soaked nightmare of an action RPG.

P.S. You're right about the Korean power, that will make SC2 sales genocide D3's.

Personally I think Diablo will sell better. I mean it's not for the fact that Diablo II was bigger then Starcraft I, because over time I think starcraft became bigger anyway. I just feel that more people are going to want see what Diablo III will be like and what it has to offer.

Who knows, the mass majority might just go with Starcraft 2, I know people overseas love them some Starcraft, lol.

My inner gut feeling tells me D3 will sell more copies then SC2. They have been waiting a decade for the D2 sequel so just the hype in itself will drive more sales than Starcraft 2 will see.

i think over the years diablos fan base has gotten pretty big. i think it might be close.

I went for Diablo only because it'll be more approachable to casual gamers of today, unlike RTS's.
