 Really looking forward to SC2 for me, i love how the story evolves ( maybe im simple :)  ) .

 But sad that there's no new race, because im really looking forward to what Duran have said about a new and more powerful race (maybe a mixture of zerg and protoss, rem they are created by the xel'naga) coming, and sarah looking blank waiting for the new fate that awaits her.... all the build up to sc2... hmm... maybe it will be out in sc2 expansion i guess....

I played original starcraft many years. Then I got bored with it and the genre altogether. SC2 is just redecorated SC1 with few gameplay tweaks. No thanks. RTS game is soo 90's.

You mean the Hybrids that the Protoss discovered on one of the moons?

Exactly. This is Starcraft 1.5 at best. The same game with a graphics overhaul and a few new units thrown in does not make a whole new game. Oh well I'll just stick with MMOs and let the Koreans have their fun with this one. I hope Blizzards next announcement isn't as disappointing as this one was.

Exactly , I wasnt impressed on any level what so ever. They are going to have to do better then that.

Dunno bout you guys.. But I won't be touching SC2.

Don't get me wrong, it looks great - balanced and all, but RTS just isn't my thing.

I have a feeling the MMO they're developing is Diablo, seems like a natural progression of the series.

Check it out yourself.  The series starts up again with the 2nd version.

What will the other announcment be though, a new MMO?  a graphic upgrade to WoW?
Hope they destroy WoW

This is exciting news

I support the emulation of video games.

A few more units radically changed SC when Broodwar came out. Medics changed a lot about how one used infantry. Lurkers and Devourers created a new layer of economic management for Zerg. Dark Templer and Corsairs changed a lot of priorties in build orders. All together they added more dynamism than what could've been found in vanilla craft.
