Our Blizzard Battle of 2006 continues and approaches its end. Which two games will make it to the final round? Not Lost Vikings! Last week we put all three WarCraft games and their expansions up against just StarCraft and its Brood Wars expansion. Here were the results:
- StarCraft: 27 votes - winner!
- WarCraft I, II, & III: 6 votes
As expected, StarCraft proved to be the most acclaimed of all the RTS games, leaving a WarCraft game just one more chance at going to the finals. Here's this week's debate: World of Warcraft versus Diablo II. Yes, include all expansions and money involved. As always, weigh all the pros and cons, pick which game you enjoyed the most, tell us why, and get some friends of yours to vote too!
Check back next week to find out which game will go head-to-hydralisk-head against StarCraft in the final round of Dtoid's Blizzard Battle 2006.

Contest:
I have to go with WOW - I think in one week's timespan I could enjoy D2 far more than any one week in WOW, but WOW will continue to get updates forevers and foreverz. Plus, i honestly do think I could get tired of playing Diablo 2. Even WOW's camera makes it more immersive. Damn, now I want to play WOW real bad..
my vote - WOW
My vote goes to Diablo II.
Diablo II has endless playability, free online play, and it's easy to just pick up and start playing.
Without LOD, my vote would go to WoW, even if I haven't played it yet. Speaking of which, Fronz, did you know Ron finally decided to bite the bullet and buy the game? Now he's complaining because he has to deal with a bunch of character customization options and can't just run around "hitting motherfuckers and stealing their swords."
Because it's cheap and polished, and it's still fun to play through a decade later. I'm probably going to start another game right now.
World of Warcraft gets incredibly dull for me somewhere around level 30. After I tried all the character classes and had my main one around there, I cancelled my subscription and haven't really thought about it since then. It was fun while it lasted though.
Diablo II
If they'd release a patch to iron out most of the remaining kinks and finally resolve some of the crazy server lag that still exists for a six-year-old 2D game, I'd probably still be playing on a near-daily basis.
I loved D2, but it got old after a while. I've yet to get sick of WoW.
Diablo muthafucking II
Never did really get into Diablo, though I am looking forward to an eventual Diablo 3.
World of Warcraft!
