Blizzard announces new game: STARCRAFT 2!!!
STARCRAFT 2!!!
Sorry everybody, it's not Diablo 3, but one thing we Blizzard fans are used to is WAITING. Diablo 3 will happen, in the meantime, let's all enjoy the Starcraft 2 news because Starcraft was one hell of a good game.
Big thanks to all of our faithful forum members who've been following the story over the past week!

I think he's right, i still haven't played but just seeing the screensshots i can tell that it looks the same just 'upgraded'. But maybe the're will be a lot more
, but for now... it looks the same.
I loved the intro.
I just read through the entire Medusa Demo thread and most of this thread, seems the general consensus is that SC2 is not as welcome a piece of news as Diablo III would have been. But anyway, I think we've had enough discussion pertaining to this. Afterall, this is a D3 site. Well, happy happy for the SC2 masses...my fellow D3 groupies, heads up high!
*hands out amulet +20% chance of announcement of Diablo 3 before end 2008 to everyone*
Tsk tsk, such profanity. If it weren't for the 'bitches', you wouldn't have D1 or D2
i happen to like RTS's so this will work for me
I was so right.
Look, I may be in the minority here but I never liked Warcraft III. It just didn't have a good feel to it. Sure it was polished and had some cool graphics but it never set well with me.
All this is, is Warcraft III with different graphics; it's nothing new or original.
They should have skipped to Starcraft MMO, yeah I know many of you don't like that idea. But NO ONE, has put out a good futuristic (space age) MMO. Anarchy just sucked from day one. Blizzard should have gone ahead and made the MMO.
I'm tired of the LOTR elves, dwarves, ogres BS, it's the same theme over and over again. Same with Diablo 1 and 2; sorry guys diablo was a great game but diablo 3, would dia-BLOW! It's a worn out story, where as the characters in Starcraft haven't been developed. Many of which I think are more complex and interesting than any of the characters they've previously written.
WORLD OF STARCRAFT should have been the announcement. This is a sorry attempt at developing Warcraft III with different graphics...its probably the same damn graphics engine!
personally i think it was a mistake to make sc befor d3. for every 1 devoted sc fan there is 20 diablo fans. yes im sure plenty of people are fine with the idea of playing a new sc game but with the attitude of "well i guess sc can hold me off till d3"
idk for me i get the feeling sc2 is gonna feel more like a big polished up expansion then a new badass sequel. much like d3 would have been (or atleast i like to think so =P).
i think that was the greatest 10 second intro ever..
then i watched the whole thing....absoultuley incredible
What happened to Medusa? Was it just a codename for Starcraft 2? They said there would be a demo.
If Starcraft 2 was in development in 2003, that means Ghost+Starcraft 2 were both being made at the same time? And why does it take them 4 years to just announce one game? That means a full 5-6 years just to make a game.
Also I don't like what I hear from their multiplayer. "Most of their concentration is on battle.net" and they won't comment on whether it's free or subscription based. I don't like what I hear atm.
Also, Diablo 3 WILL be announced at BlizzCon. Just like the first BlizzCon which they used to announce WoW, they will announce D3 here. I don't see Blizzard hosting a huge BlizzCon without announcing a game. If they were to announce a game, it would be Diablo 3. I don't see another Warcraft for another year at least, so that just leaves D3.
