How far do you think this thing is going to go? I mean, since Blizzard and Activision are on the same side, could future Modern Warfare games or other Activision titles link in to battle.net? Or will bnet just be Blizzard's play ground so long as the WoW money keeps rolling in and allowing them to support services like this?

Ooh, it looks especially shiny, and great so far. I haven't had the SC itch in a long time since its gameplay mechanics are horribly outdated (compared to DoW), but this is actually getting me slightly excited for SC2.

I might be dropping my money on this instead of Alan Wake, depending on what happens concerning the platforms and who releases first. Hmm.

It looks incredibly easy to skin. And knowing Blizzard the whole GUI part of it will be a gold standard for this sort of thing. Why wouldn't Activision want to put a CoD skin on it and use it in CoD or whatever other game? But I don't see that happening for a long time. I'm sure Blizzard wants to keep this as their playground for now.
