yeah, it is pretty damn cool. Man, I really hope they do this -- Diablo II would rock as a DS game -- the stylus was MADE for hack'n'click. And I never got to play Starcraft, so that would be equally cool.

Agreed - D2 is awesome, and this would be highly welcome.

Starcraft was a great game - I just suck mightily at RTS games. :P

I'd be interested in either game. Though hopefully they will be new games and not just Starcraft and D2 for the DS. Those are the types of games that will finally get me to upgrade my gameboy to a DS.

Hell, I'll take a straight port of either game -- I've still only played 2 or 3 classes in Diablo II, and never played Starcraft, but new content with the same engine would be better.

There's supposed to be an Age of Empires turned-based DS port coming out soon too, which could be really cool (I liked Age of Empires, but got my ass kicked by the RTS setup -- I might stand a chance if it's turn based. :))
