Yeah.. so pretty much Battle.Net will probably become another "portal" type device that will either be similar to Steam in terms of community and handling all of Blizzard and probably eventually Activision games.
I can hear cash registers ringing in the future...
Aint nothing new about the world order..it's been playing since the day they put George Washington on a quarter
85's face the truth you're too dumb.
I hope this doesn't adversely affect PopCap's output.
See, that's what I thought when I heard this news...two months ago.

Ahhh... now the Peggle / WoW connection makes a lot more sense.
Actually, wait.

Haven't they been swapping employees for a while? I feel like I remember hearing that the guy who made Plants Vs. Zombies worked at Blizzard for a while, first...

It's not Blizzard anymore, it's Activision. You can tell because they're not including LAN play in Starcraft 2.

This is assuming "Blizzard can do no wrong" ? I think Blizzard feels like they missed the bus when Steam came out and want to compete with battle.net 2.0. I have yet to see anything happening at Blizzard that makes me think Activision has anything to do with their decisions.
