So, we actually have a guy on our team — actually several guys on our team — who are actually working on a side project to do something like that in some form or fashion. We're fans of Warcraft 1, Warcraft 2, Warcraft 3, and we'd love to replay those games for sure.
That was World of Warcraft's Production Director, J. Allen Brack, talking about the updated titles. So yes, it seems as though it isn't exactly a top priority for the people at Blizzard but at least it's being worked on. Right?
Played Warcraft 1 & 2 and loved them. I tried playing it on a "modern" PC (a few years ago) and the entire game moved at lightning speed. Good times
