YouTube - Starcraft 2 CGI announcement trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUXoekeDIW8)

looks like its about time to make the sc forum alittle bigger

Yah Mat and Skid...I love you too....another area to watch.....>.<

Nice you should have posted the gameplay video also. The nuke effects were sick!

Yeah I think I am the only happy person here. Im awesome at StarCraft its my main game basicly ;)
So I really cant wait for SC2

Yeah it's gonna be badass, even though the trailer showed nothing.

Did you look at the gameplay video? The gameplay video looked sweet.

Metal Head... it said this on their site.

Please check back tomorrow (5/20) for the Gameplay Video!

StarCraft II (http://www.starcraft2.com/movies.xml)

my friend IMEd me sayin sc 2 was announced and i was like wtf? so i go to battle.net and i see Starcraft II, Hell its about time

i was like LOL LMAO YEA GG GG YEAA GG NO RE FINALLY

what happened to the fourth race??
if yall remember, there was a bonus mission where you saw duran? mixing together zerg and protoss to create hybrids.

will the online play be a monthly fee? i doubt they make any more games with free online playing. im sick of d2, except for open hack dueling, and this might be just what im looking for

if they do that... i think it would piss alot of people off.
in the article it said that blizz is still tight lipped over that issue. but i really hope online is free.

^same. i don't care how amazing a game is, i won't pay monthly to play any game. ¥

Why would they do that? Their asses get enough money from the WoW monthly fee. They don't need anymore.

^well, if you had a choice of either 20 million dollars or 100 million dollars being placed in your bank account, what would you choose. you have to think about it as they would.

its all about more money. who wouldn't like more money?
but lets not forget.. if they charge, and that pisses off the koreans, and they dont play, and likewise we dont play, we could in effect force them to go free again. power of the consumer unite!!

this looks like a RTS, and it wouldn't be very smart to make a RTS P2P, WoW was turned into a RPG, so i dont see SC2 being P2P at all.

(wow look at all abbriveations)

ugh now i really need to update my computer when this thing finally comes out -.-

Why the **** would they make you pay a monthly fee for a RTS? There is a big difference between a MMO and a RTS. All MMOs have monthly fees(GW doesn't count as MMO) and I've never seen a RTS with a monthly fee.

And glorious blizzard will make it the first RTS monthly pay game.

I mean cmon they are Blizzard they have to set records.
