It has been posted around several sites dedicated to Blizzard and their game. Rumours are saying that the Starcraft players might have something really fun to look forward to.
A well known game designer named Dustin Browder have been recruited to Blizzard. In his merit list one can find several high quality RTS (Real Time Strategy) games such as C&C: Generals (2003) and its expansion C&C: Generals: Zero Hour (2003) as well as C&C: Red Alert 2 (2000). He will leave his current employer, Electronic Arts, to join the Blizzard Irvine team. The very same team that has created the Starcraft and Warcraft RTS games.
In the SCLegacy article it says that "Browder will be working out of Blizzard's Irvine office and will answer directly to Rob Pardo. Pardo was a lead designer of Brood War, Warcraft III, and is involved with World of Warcraft and Starcraft: Ghost.". There is also a chance that Blizzard wants to introduce the Diablo series as a RTS game, but that is almost improbable, Medievaldragon writes in his post on BlizzPlanet.
Browder himself said to Gamespy in the article Medievaldragon built his thoughts on that he does not know what the project he will be working is. Although, he assumes that it is going to be an RTS game because of his background. To the question "Could it possibly be Warcraft IV or StarCraft 2?" he answers "I hope so".
Dustin Browder, I can tell you that you are not the only one who hope so.

Since we have not posted about this before, and it might mean something really wonderful for everyone loving Starcraft, I decided to make a news post about it, despite the fact that it might not be really fresh news.
