Nice! It's about time they decided to make StarCraft 2!

[Samada]

Who didn't see this coming. Now for Diablo III to be announced.

Okay...

Why the **** do we need to download a Blizzard Downloader just to get the video? It would have been alot ****ing easier just download the god damn video like you would off of any other site. Shit.

Well, Blizzard thinks the Downloader works best. :/

I just get my WoW Patches and all the other stuff from other sources. <.<

Here's some clearer audio versions of the units explanation stuff (by stob2000):

Looks like it came from a TV broadcast or something.

I thought the units video cut short, thanks for posting longer better versions.

[Howard the Duck]

The Blizzard downloader is basically a Torrent-type thing. Pretty lame, I just ended up grabbing it from MiniNova.

Looks fly as hell, my friends and I have been waiting for years. Too bad I'll suck at it, just like I (still) do at the original StarCraft.

[moomoo]

Heh, I suck at every game I've ever played, which is a bit of a problem cause I love playing them all the same.

I'm not so good at RTS games either, I move as fast as a snail in these types of games.

Here's some news from GameSpot:

Last Resort

OK, considering how long Blizzard has ignored StarCraft and it's fans, I maintain this is just to compete with Command & Conquer 3. Thoughts? (Although agree, it's about damn time! Now I need a new compy, ARG!)

Also, how was C&C 3? I don't have a system that can run it now.. Or an OS for that matter.
