I honestly hope this isn't true at all. I can see Blizzard suffering massively.
First splitting SC2 into three games... Then charging money to play online?
Fuck that.

Blizzard shoots themselves in the foot if it is true.

"How Blizzard will be seeking to "monetize" is unknown, but Wilson said it was necessary to keep the financially crippled Blizzard alive and kicking."
Ya they need the extra cash because WoW isnt making them any money at all!
Its ridiculous I highly doubt bnet will cost money and if it does count me out too. Who wants to come over to my house and play 5 finger shuffle with me?
