oh wow, I remember seeing that a year ago and thinking how awesome it looked and now watching it again it doesn't look nearly as good. I think SC2 has much better in game graphics. D3 looks like it is using an upgraded WoW engine, where SC2 may be using something else. IDK either way, but I just remember that video looking better before.

yeah, I was on the website yesterday trying to reignite the fire for Diablo 3, regardless of the engine I'm still excited for it. Warcraft 2 and Diablo were my intro to gaming. I'm always excited to try the latest in these series.

Blizzard has never been known for it's 'graphics' so i guess it's not too terrible to see that it hasn't improved much. Even the graphics of SC2 are sub-par as far as I'm concerned. But they do have to take into account playability and the fact that a lot of their players will not have hardware capable of modern graphic design..
That said, I think the game will be fun even if it looks like crap (although, my bet is it will look substantially more pretty than that trailer leads us to believe).

If SC2 isn't looking awesome for you then I suggest You're Doing It Wrong. That game looks great.
Looking at the way the animation functions and the textures and stuff in the D3 video it just looks to me like a modified WoW engine, whereas SC2 appears to be using something else. Just my perceptions.

SC2 looks ok. I have never been distracted from game play by something stupid looking. However it doesn't look great. It's functional and everything is easy to see. For an RTS it great that nothing stands out as bad but everything is easy to differentiate from other units or the background.
But it's not awesome looking dude. As p00p pointed out no blizzard game is.
D3 looks awesome to me not because of the graphics. It just looks like it's going to be tons of fun to play. I am a blizzard fanboi of sorts though.
