How long has that been there?

Haha that's cool. Blizzard really puts references and cameos everywhere, I love that. Now if only they didn't take 10 years to make a game every time.

Haven't visited the site in a while, but it was probably added after they did the redesign.

Anyone ever figure out why they put that gem in the middle of the D2 chat screen?

Meh, I don't know if that is fake or what.

Let us recap:
Command & Conquer is getting a sequel.
Total Annihiliation is getting a (pseudo-)sequel.
...

E3 soon, right?

SC needs a damn sequel. When it is released in Korea, the people will be in such a frenzy that they will spontaniously SCV-rush North Korea and win.

Blizzard is such a trend follower that I suspect that SC2 will only have decent gameply but with all the bells a whistles that are included in any current RTS games. I'm actually more excited for the UMS aspect of a Blizzard RTS, maybe someone will actually make a good game.

I think Starcraft will be good if and ONLY if, they have NO heros, and they have no upkeep system. Put the emphasis on strategey and macro with some micro, instead of all micro strategey and if your lucky, you get to macro some because your beating your opponents face in.

Warrik · 05-01-2006, 06:17 PM

they should just take WC3 and reskin it. Walla...SC2.

Rezz · 05-02-2006, 10:24 AM

And that is probably exactly what will happen, if it ever does.

FuckYou · 05-02-2006, 10:26 AM

"Walla"

you cant be serious

It's a large violin, right?

if you beat each campaign of WarCraft III on hard difficulty then you will have access to a SC2 trailer roughly 2 or 3 minutes long, based off the WarCraft III engine.

Now this is fact. Sadly it wasnt really a trailer as it was Blizzard showing off the engine of Warcraft 3 with SC units (Marine, Zerg, Hydralisk, and a Chaos Space Orc). Blizzard claimed then it would be 18 to 22 months till release of at least a beta. Personally I gave up on this game like Duke Nukem Forever.
