@lstormy10, wow this is huge news. Business Wire is as credible as it gets as these are press releases from the companies.
This doesn't increase the likelihood a Blizzard game is on console at all. Blizzard has been trying to break into console for years. They have been making GBA games for a long time. They were working on Starcraft: Ghost for years which was going to be exclusive for consoles, but it fell through, likely because the Xbox was no longer popular and the game wasn't even ready (Blizzard games take a long time to develop, so a console cycle could be over by the time they are ready to put the game out).
Starcraft came out for the N64 and it was a flop. Blizzard has said they have no intention to port WoW to consoles because the game play would suffer, not because they don't know how to make console games.
