    Yea I'll admit I still play starcraft every once in awhile it really is one of the best games ever. I remember years back they had screenshots for a supposedly new starcraft 2 but it never happened. I hope this really will be released.

    Also a fan here! But somehow the most revolutionizing RTS is Warcraft III, with the combining of Role Playing Action game with Real Time Strategy. It's a pity they had to leave this out in Starcraft II.

    NONETHELESS I'm ALL EXCITED !

    Yeah I think they released this too soon, or didn't show enough. I mean so far it looks like they just made the Protoss uber-powered and have been neglecting the Terran and Zerg. I know they aren't finished, but that means that they have a looong way to go if they only have a few Protoss units ready.....

    One of the things that set Starcraft apart when it was released was the fact that all three armies were completely different, yet totally fairly balanced. I'd be surprised if Blizzard didn't make sure that was also the case for the sequel.

    Oh I know. I played Starcraft for many years myself

    It just seems like this was released too early or something considering they've haven't even finished one race yet. I'm actually surprised - I thought they would make the races together and balance it that way, instead of making one, then the next and ironing out any imbalances after that.
