StarCraft 2 Announced!
If you’re a gamer like me, then this is probably the biggest news you’ll hear this year… Finally, a sequel to one of my fave RTS games of all time, Starcraft.
Blizzard Entertainment announced this sequel just now, although they’ve been hinting at it for almost a year. And the game’s slated to come out in 2008 – almost ten years after the original Starcraft was unveiled. Wow, that’s a long time to wait for a sequel, man 
Just saw the cinematic trailer for Starcraft 2… kinda boring but it somewhat picks up near the end when they showed that montage before the marine says “Hell, it’s about time!”
Apt words, indeed. Can’t wait to get my gnarled, quivering hands on a copy of the game, bub…
The screenshots look sweet:

If you wanna see the cinematic, you can also download it from there:

(I would’ve uploaded it here on Multiply but the video player doesn’t know how to handle widescreen videos… kinda looks like those old chinese movies where they try to fit a widescreen film into a 4:3 ratio TV… )
