After SC2 is released, Blizzard will probably have all 3 of their big franchises in the top 10.

It is quite sad to see how many people are seriously throwing their lives away, i mean if World of Warcraft is always in the top 10 then that is so many people wasting their lives on one of the most addictive online games on the planet...
