It's too bad that newer is equated with better. But I guess some noobs who aren't hardcore sc1 fans would be put off by reviews that blizz is using "old" 2d graphics.

you dont know much about game development do you?
developing a 3d game, modelling 3d figures are much more flexible then drawing sprites.
You would need high resolution sprites which look good on high resolution screens [this is not 640 480 anymore], making those is years' work. If you want to modify something on a character, you have to change that on every directional sprite [omfg thats disgusting to even think about] but if you use 3d models this is a simple job.
Thats why even fighting game developers slowly crawl toward 3D.
