Ok, so I talked about the debut of Diablo 3 coming up but I just heard of another Blizard project. World of Starcraft.
Here's a little description of Starcraft via Wikipedia.
Set in the 26th century, the game revolves around three species—the Terrans, humans exiled from Earth adept at adapting to any situation; the Zerg, a race of insectoids obsessed with assimilating other races in pursuit of genetic perfection; and the Protoss, a humanoid species with advanced technology and psionic abilities attempting to preserve their civilization and strict philosphical way of living from the Zerg—fighting for dominance in a distant part of the Milky Way galaxy. The game has been praised for pioneering the use of unique factions in real-time strategy gameplay and for a "compelling" story.
Many of the industry's journalists have praised StarCraft as one of the and most important video games of all time, and for having raised the bar for developing real-time strategy games. StarCraft's multiplayer is particularly popular in South Korea, where professional players and teams participate in matches, earn sponsorships, and compete in televised tournaments.
And now, much like Warcraft, Starcraft is becoming another mukltiplayer world.The Saga Continues:
StarCraft: Brood War continues the award-winning saga of galactic warfare as the Zerg, Protoss and Terrans struggle for their continued survival. With the shattered Zerg hive torn apart by fierce in-fighting, the Protoss seek to reunite with their Dark Templar brethren and begin the rebuilding of their homeworld, Aiur. Terran Emperor Mengsk I, having achieved his goal of total power over the human colonies, must now turn his attention to both the rising power of the woman he betrayed -- Kerrigan, the infamous Zerg Queen of Blades-- and a conspiracy deep within his own ranks.
This New game Features:
Three all new campaigns continue the epic StarCraft storyline
New worlds to explore, from the Dark Templar twilight homeworld of Shakuras to the blasted and barren deserts of Korhal
Original cinematic scenes and new music tracks
100 new multiplayer maps
Honor, Valor and Glory! Visit the Hall of Heroes!
Get ready for W.O.S. Wow that's weird. :)

I'd like to credit all my knowledge of these blizzard games to my insane extended family who all play and encouraged me to play these games when I was young and dedicated at least 50% of my day to playing those games.
