Isn't Starcraft an RTS? That makes it look more like an RPG.
It is an RTS,but blizzard have always been known for kickass intros for years now....They actually have their own dept for it and have put over 100 million developing Starcraft 2 since 2007.
Can you imagine if an RPG version was made though?....Dust 514 would have a tough time against this for sure.

I was under the impression dust was an FPS.
Dust is more like a combo of FPS and RPG,since it's not just the question of killing other soldiers in the opposing team,but also either defending or attacking/destroying installations that belong to pod pilots who are up in orbit too,so there's role playing elements too....The soldier is part of a bigger picture and his/her performance affects how events unfold too.

I dont think it could possibly be more cheesy even if they hired a cheese salesman as their script writer, its like cliche line after cliche line.
True,some of the dialog is cheesy,but Starcraft has a hell of a storyline to begin with....Even today,there's still plenty of hard core starcraft players playing the original game,and that was released about 13~14 years ago.

I picture DUST having a lot in common with MAG on the PS3
With the amount of first person shooters on the market as it is,and likely even more of them by the time Dust is actually available,i have a feeling it'll get lost in the woods to be honest,as we already have battlefield bad company 2 on consoles,and destructible environments rock,there's Crysis 2 coming up in september~october,and sometime in 2011,id software's rage game,using their latest graphics engine,which the game has been in development since 2004.
So dust 514,using the not that cutting edge UT3 engine(it was a few years ago),might only interest those that also play,or have played in the past,eve online and know it's storyline,because when isolating it for it's FPS experience exclusively,i think it'll be hard to make it standout from the rest of the FPS games out there,or even match the latest crop from developers who have more experience in making FPS games(id software and dice and infinity ward on the top of that list).

Starcraft should have had a movie based on it and not Starship Troopers. Starcraft has a far superior plot and universe to set a movie into.
that said i loved Starship Troopers for a good ole switch off the brain plotless violence, alien bugs and shoulder fired nukes.
Mecha suits missing though,and they were in the starship troopers comic book..
Sending foot soldiers against bugs is suicide,as the movie clearly showed...

Just checked the starcraft 2 box(no DVD inside of course),and the game also comes with it's own map editor to basically make custom maps...
