NOW is the time to talk about it

Whoopee! I'm so happy!

I may actually start playing games again and upgrade my PC just for this.

Great article:

"blow-by-blow" updates on what's happening over at Blizzard's Worldwide Invitational, plus a lot of descriptions on what Starcraft 2 contains.

Protoss colossus - huge unit that can blast out dual lasers and use long legs to traverse differences in terrain height - in the demo two of them obliterate about fifty or so zerglings.

poor zerglings

[shaoron]

*and the starcraft fanboys yell in unison*
FINALLY!


errr.. no.. i'm not a SC fanboy... i'm a CnC fanboy but i do enjoy blizzard titles as well.

three words:

NAK NAM PU!!!!

pc gaming is cool again!

[rave]

Hehe... I finally have a good reason to get a new PC.

I hope they won't change much of the classic formula. In particular, I'd be disappointed if the gameplay ended up relying on heroes and auras. I prefer squads and fleets. I'd probably even be happy if they stuck with the Terran/Protoss/Zerg lineup.

[boredtoday]

^ me too. according this article, we're gonna get what we're wishing for. no heroes, and same races. ayos!!!

here's the announcement trailer
and an actual gameplay video

aaaaahh... can't wait.

Starcraft is my all time favorite game ..... playing it again now, after years of not playing. Good to see SC2 now coming along.

My Life For Aiur!

One of my all time favorite game ( behind Diablo ) will arrive soon!

Way to go, Blizzard. After 10 years!

From Gamespot:
The panel also confirmed that the sequel will have only the three factions of the protoss, terrans, and zerg--there will be no fourth faction.

WTF??? FINALLY!!!! I've been waiting for the 2nd version!!! YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's probably like 7-10 years wait??

[Verbl Kint]

Very very very nice. The best justification for a new box has finally come. Sana mura na ang Core Extreme by the time SC2's released.

Starcraft 2: Hell, It's About Time - right you are Blizzard

The Official Starcraft 2 Site - finally!!! (I cannot stress that word enough)

SCREENSHOTS! purrrty...

I just hope that this won't be one of those games that will sacrifice gameplay for graphics and effects. Please no... Please not Starcraft 2, of all games!

[d00dz]

I'm pretty sure that Starcraft 2 is in good hands with Blizzard

Blizz isn't known for sacrificing gameplay and overall quality in their games. They are gonna keep delaying the game's release if they feel its not up to expectations

Oo nga pala, let me remind everyone not to post images that would make horizontal scrollbars appear on browsers running on 1024x768 resolution. An image width of 800 would probably be enough.

[irate]

Starcraft 2 has the cinematic and artwork trailer but http://gametrailers.com has much faster dls.

[shaoron]

sooo... lemme get this straight...
the full title of this game is...

"Starcraft II: Hell, it's about time!" ???

Yup. And the screenshots + vids don't really show a super eye-candy type of game (I mean in this day and age, the graphics aren't really topnotch, right?). Also, Starcraft 2 is monumental. Blizzard should know that and put extra care into developing this game.

Ooops. Noted. Cutting it close na pala yung image na nilagay ko.

sooo... lemme get this straight...
the full title of this game is...

"Starcraft II: Hell, it's about time!" ???

I don't think so. The "Hell, it's about time" phrase I think is just to refer to the extra-long wait that fans had to endure since the original game came out.

For the Horde!

Whoops, sorry. Wrong game hehe.
