    Some more to come later I suppose. Guess I'll edit in more info to the post, assuming there is any new info worth posting about (the event where they announced this is not over yet...still talking about the game).

    Is there any doubt as to which is the best PC game company in the Biz? When have they ever deliver a subpar game?

    You know if EA was doing starcraft ghost, they'll push out a half a$$ version just to recoup some losses. I don't ever remember Blizz putting out a game that wasn't near perfect in any way.

    My grandchildren will look forward to play it.

    Stupid IGN...as much as posting the only chick at the convention sounds like a good idea, it's another way to tell readers that you have no substantial pics worth posting.

    They're about 5 years late?? Maybe more..

    I remember hearing rumors about this since the original Starcraft's heyday.. In 1998-2001

    I'm glad SC2 will look similar to SC1. Good news for me. And hopefully, this thing will be released sometime this year and not 2-3 years later. That video made me feel giddy, I wonder what those Korean words were and what the Terran said.

    Blizzard releases perfection, not just an updating of graphics from it's previous version. When have you ever played a game by Blizzard and thought to yourself "what's so different about this game than the last one?"

    Other company are basically releasing patches and graphic updates to their games while blizzard actually keeps things fresh every time.

    Oh my god... The video looks CRAZY!!

    The Marine says at the end: "Finally, the day has come.."

    Or something of that sort.. "It's about time"

    And gets the crowd pumped up..

    pshhh...but 5 yrs? you kidding me, if anything put off the other projects and focus mainly on SC 2, hell i'm debating if i'll even get SC2. I havent played SC in the longest time. If SC 2 would have came out sooner there would be no doubt i would have it.

    Much more info and graphics at starcraft2.com.

    IMO, what made StarCraft 1 great was the single player, and Big Game Hunters melee. Those were the days...
