The guy makes some valid points but it is still anyone's guess.
So, the codename “Titan” is official. I first heard it a few weeks ago when a leaked timetable surfaced on the web although at that point I dismissed the whole thing as a fake (understandably so considering how unprofessional the thing looked). But now Blizzard have owned up and admitted that the codename is genuine, not only making the leaked product slate a lot more believable but also casting a lot of (renewed) speculation about what the new MMO will be. Clash of the Titans the MMORPG? Something involving Saturn? A MMO set on the Titan…ic? Erm, well, yes…
Personally I’m not interested in Blizzard’s future release schedule because, I have been wrong before.

I've been thinking that Blizzard's new mmo would be a Starcraft mmo since they announced it would be based on a new IP. Those sneaky little buggers want to pull off a total shock and awe campaign on their fans. I can just feel it.

I think if blizzard is going to make a FPS science fiction MMO, like many people believe, it would be Starcraft, I mean...why would they make some other Space Shooter MMO if Starcraft is already such a big RTS, probably way bigger than Warcraft was...seems sort of ridiculous to me. The only FPS Sci-fi thing it could be other than Starcraft is Halo, which I doubt.
If it truly is a new IP it sounds like maybe Time Travel...lol *shrug* I don't know . I agree with Cecropia, Blizz is just pulling our strings, for all we know we could see a Lost Vikings MMO, or Cupcake MMO coming from Blizz...LOL.

Not possible, they said the new mmorpg was a new IP.
I remember a long time ago blizzard saying the new mmo is a new IP. Dont have the source though, so I guess this post is moot.
As Blizzard has said before, this mmo will be a new IP and not based on anything Blizzard or (hopefully) nothing Activision has done.
I think it would be great if they did something new because of the fact they haven't done anything new ever. On the other hand this is Blizzard, not the most innovative company out there and they milk the heck out of their current franchises.
There is already a thread discussing this topic. Please post there. Locked.
