Uhmmm... beta of Cataclysm hasn't even started yet, Cata is not going to be out before October.

It isn't likely to be out before November.

Ok, I didn't see your second comment until now.

World of StarCraft? Are you serious?

They have already said their new game isn't an existing IP. Secondly, they wouldn't put out StarCraft 2 then put out an MMO afterwards. Thirdly, I wish people would stop using "World of StarCraft". StarCraft has 12 worlds. It wouldn't be "World".

Not only that, Alpha hasn't even started. then again they started development b4 Wotlk. I think they're doing pretty well for what's basically wow 2.0

"Secondly, they wouldn't put out StarCraft 2 then put out an MMO afterwards."

Let's do a bit of creative editing here.

"Secondly, they wouldn't put out WarCraft 3 then put out an MMO afterwards."

See what I did there?

WarCraft 3 was released in 2002. WoW was announced in 2001.

The difference being is that the game came out in 2004. Working on a game and releasing it is different.

They are also redoing Battle.net for StarCraft 2. They will be making a new interface, and they aren't going to pull away attention from that.

They aren't going to put out StarCraft 2, then announce an MMO immediately. And they have also said their new game isn't an existing IP.

As far as the whole "Starscraft has 12 worlds, so World of Starcraft wouldn't apply" (slight paraphrashing), if we want to be technical World of Warcraft takes place on more then one world as well. Yes, it focuses on Azeroth, but there was the whole detour to Outlands(remains on Dreanor), and I've heard rumors of a final expansion occuring offworld as well.

Space of Starcraft.

It keeps the same ring, SoS instead of WoW. It totally works.

Umm 'World of Starcraft" no, starcraft galaxy(ies) or adventures. They'd definitely have to copy SoE here. Then again they could be orginal and call it like any of their other starcraft games and expantions past the first one which didn't have a sub-name IIRC.
