Some companies innovate, or at least try. Blizzard just churns out the same pap. If you like the taste, fine, but don't expect me to shell out $XX.XX for the same game but with 3D. I expected more, but shouldn't have.
Bugger that. Give me the original game that can be played at higher resolutions, and I'll be happy.
I normally like ground-breaking games, but the low-resolution is the only real problem with Starcraft when played on modern hardware. Might as well go 3D while they're at it. I'm sure they'll have more story to tell, but I never played through the single-player mode, anyway.

come to think of it if SC 2 doesn't have a form of point capture victory or resource gain like DoW/CoH I think I will be way to frustrated with uber turtlers to get much fun from it (turret/lurker D etc ftw here, probably all i will play if it is the same as SC1)

Probably not official, but very complete site
There's a Trailer out, and I'm d/l now.
First thoughts? I'm worried. Very worried. The screenshots section looks like a starcraft mod for warcraft. everything is very cartoony.  In fact on one of them I can see background planets through holes in the ground and it made me think of worms. 
Not enough grit. Hopefully won't stay that way
www.blizzard.com send u to www.starcraft2.com..
it IS official :)

Starcraft is considered by most to be one of the most well-balanced RTS games ever made. Why mess with perfection? They're changing quite a bit, sure, but why throw it out of whack with something new? They tried it with Warcraft III, and, while 5 years newer, doesn't have as many people playing it today as Starcraft does. That's saying a lot about this one game.

you guys realize that group of ppl (bout 90% of em) who created the original Starcraft, diablo (I & II) and Warcraft (I & II) no longer work at or for blizzard and have nothing to do with SC II. ffs, bill roper is gone and has been for years.

Blizzard should:
1) Take the original
2) Put it all AS IT IS in a new graphic engine (something less cartoonish)
3) Add all the various GUI and command interface options that RTSs have developed in 9 years (order queveing, unit behavior switch etc.)
4) Beef up the AI (although it was pretty good to begin with)
5) Add a new set of campaign
6) MAYBE 1 or 2 new units per side.
That is all.
Don't frakking reinvent Starcraft, it is perfect as it is!

I am quite dissapointed atm. I have seen everything realeased, but to me it just looks like Warcraft 3 with new skins.
What is funny is that if you search on Starcraft 2 on youtube, it'll find A TON of mods to warcraft 3, and they look pretty damn much like Starcraft 2.
Really crappy, also, battlecruisers seems to have like 4 hitpoints or something, they're going down like freakin frigates(eve language ftw).
Another thing, how the frack can a MOTHERSHIP be balanced? Starcraft is about building an army, and then have a huge fight with slow progress. But this new "ship"(SuperShip) will destroy the enemies army with a blink of an eye.
YET ANOTHER THING: The shield that the protoss mothership has is not a "shield", its a time disruptor that makes EVERYTHING go REALLY slow, so you have enough time to kill the enemy, before the shells hit. When you kill the enemy, the missiles then for some odd reason, looses their thrust and drops to the ground.
And take that from a person who plays Starcraft with his school mates during lessons. :P

You people who complain about turtling, any fool can easily beat a lurker turret combo, I have done it dozens of times, just take out the turrets then use detector units to find the lurkers (fricken noobs >.> )
And for those of you who complain that starcraft is WCIII with different skins, maybe it is in your dreams. I played WCIII and it doesn't look at all like the vids from scII, and besides they only announced it like a week ago, I have been waiting like seven or eight years for SCII and when it finally does come out all people do is complain. Complain complain complain, why can't anyone actually enjoy a game for once?
