If you're a hardcore gamer, 2010 promises to be a great year for you with 3 of the hottest franchises coming up with new releases. Let's take a look at what's going to keep you up all night.

1) Starcraft 2

The award winning Starcraft series is back and Starcraft 2 is right round the corner. In this space themed real time strategy game (RTS), you once again take control of the Terrans, Zerg or Protoss as you lead your forces across the galaxy. Not only is Starcraft 2 updated with kick ass graphics, you also get more than 30 new weapons and units to choose from. Battle.net too has also been revamped and multiplayer mode will be more addictive than ever.

2) Civilization V

Sid Meier is one of the most successful game developers today with his Civilization series the greatest of his creations. Everything you loved about Civilization is back with better graphics and game play. Take control as the leader of your people, build cities, world wonders, make new scientific discoveries and conquer lands and put your name in history. Come its release in September, gamers all over the world will once again be awake at night telling themselves "just one more turn, one more turn".

3) Diablo 3

10 years ago, Diablo 2 broke all records and became one of the most successful role playing games (RPGs) of all time. In fact, the game is so popular that you can still find it on the shelves today, an unbelievable achievement considering the fast paced nature of the gaming industry. Diablo 3 brings back all the things we loved about this franchise with 4 character classes announced so far, the Witch Doctor, Barbarian, Wizard and Monk. Not much of the storyline has been revealed except that the game takes place 20 years after Diablo 2 and players once again set out to destroy the forces of evil on the world of Sanctuary.

Part of Diablo 2's addictiveness is on the multiplayer Battle.net system and Diablo 3 will feature an enhanced Battle.net for online cooperative play as well as player vs player (PVP) competitions.
