Blizzard to make Diablo, Starcraft, or Warcraft Movie? Can't Post

With the new year approaching and Blizzard hitting 15 years, what can we expect from the publisher? Perhaps movies of the famed games?

"We do want to expand and create additional universes... but at the same time, we want to support our current universes," answers Mike Morhaime, Blizzard's President, "Generally that happens is that we have ideas for the next game, and think about what would be the best setting for the game. If we have a universe which fits the game, our first instinct would be to use that. But if we have a new universe which would be a better fit, we would go with that".

And what about the next generation consoles like the PS3 and Revolutiona and 360?

"With next-gen graphics hardware and the power of the system, there's a lot more we can do visually. There's a lot more you can do from a processing standpoint, in terms of game-logic. And of course connectivity, as what you can do from a multiplayer standpoint is going to be better to. We're going to have to look at how those things will translate"

Morhaime also alluded to the possiblity of movie releases of the popular games, "I would love for us to release feature-length films in each of the worlds. I think that the universes are rich and strong enough to support that kind of thing, and it'd enhance the connection that players have with the game. I think World of Warcraft has opened a lot of doors for us, being so popular and having such a large community. And I hope that we'll able to see something happen in the next five years."
