Looks legit, apparently heads have rolled over it already.

Certainly some interesting stuff in there. For example, they have apparently planned X4 and X5 for WoW, and WoW X5 is scheduled to release at the same time as "Titan", which is their next-gen MMO project that is apparently not WoW related - but I'd bet there's still a link planned.

Also, SC2 X1 hits in late 2011 (as we've feared), along with something known as "SC2 Phoenix". SC2 X2 isn't scheduled until early 2013, which is a ludicrous amount of time to wait for them to finish a third 8-hour campaign mod.

Diablo 3: late 2011, and of course, expansions hitting about once a year.

Oh, and there's a WoW movie.

The WOW movie has been slated for ages. Titan was their big secret. You can't pry Blizz secrets out of their employees for anything, wonder how this happened.

Pricks ive been waiting for that for ages, i bet it'll clash with ESV due 11/11/11 depending on delays]
What do you want to bet the guy who quit/was fired did so out of honor rather than actually being the guilty party.

This kind of BS is what drives the crazy document management programs and email clients at these kinds of companies and trust me, all those products suck to use.
Bit of an old topic, this was making the rounds a month or so ago. Anyway, not sure why people made a big deal over it as there is nothing on that chart that isn't obvious from educated guesses.
Interesting picture. They tend to release expansions around 1.5 years after the release of the previous expansion / game, so it seems that Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm is going as expected.

No idea about a fifth WoW expansion, but it has already been announced that they are working on a new WoW expansion. My guess is that it will be something about the Emerald Dream or something about Sargeras. Maybe the fifth will be something about these two things.

I don't mind Blizzard's expansions actually, in contrast to the crappy DLCs that we have been getting about other games. So I have nothing about a possible Diablo 3 expansion if they make Diablo 3 a great standalone game.

About the WoW movie, well, I'm not into movies, but I'll get it once it gets released.

Starcraft 2 Phoenix... I really have no idea what that thing is.

Titan, well, right now I couldn't care less, we have Starcraft 2 and Diablo coming before it, so it doesn't matter much now.

Blizzard leaks more often than my friends old car. I bet that's where Assange got his ideas from.

Definitely not, I think they're scared, or they've drunk the "team koolaid".
Now there's a product idea. Blizzard Slate, an HP Slate, with World of Warcraft, Diablo 3, and Starcraft 2 preinstalled, also three included covers for the device and Windowblinds skins with designs matching the games. I bet it'd sell millions, disregarding the fact that at least World of Warcraft really needs a mouse and keyboard to work well (the other two can probably work half-decently with a touch-screen).

Damn, I left out the previous part after I edited the post...

No reason to be scared, Blizzard unlike some other well known products, have a high quality working place. Plus, with all the freedom they get in related to game development, I don't see a reason why would one risk his job to leak some stupid picture.
