"Hell, it's about time"--damn right!
Fuck yes!
Yeh! Finally!
I wonder if it will use Battle.net?
:(
It'll probably like War3, and it'll probably suck. Everybody will migrate from Starcraft because it's *gasp* 3d, and ruin that too.
I'm not looking forward to it.
Looks amazing.

I've looked at the screen shots, and this 3D shit looks enjoyable.

That's what I'm worried about too, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. :\
It's too early to draw conclusions though.

Well as long as the game play is the same as the old one with a few new expections Iam happy.
Am I the only one who likes war3?

Doubt it. Look how different War2 and War3 are.

Yep.
It better not be like WoW & have to pay, that'd be gay.
It's NOT a MMORPG! It's an RTS that will be played of Battle.Net
mmorpg = ? multi blah blah blah player game?
rts = real time strategy?
I'm skeptical, but hopeful. I don't really have any games holding my attention right now, so a new one that actually interests me would be nice. The UI looks the same, the units look similar... if it can capture the same kind of 'feel' that the originial game had it'll be great.
In the FAQ, they said they wanted to create the same feel. There will not be new races :(? But there will be additional units. We shall see.

From the screenshots and the website in general, I very highly doubt it will turn into WC3. The UI is very similar. Hero units are present, yes, but all of their pictures have been from the single-player campaign, so there will obviously be hero units there.

MMORPG = massively multiplayer online role playing game (WoW)
RTS = Real Time Strategy (SC and SC: BW)
From the Gameplay Videos, it looks more fast paced than Starcraft.
Mobile Pylon like structures, Zergling Suicide Bombs, etc.
Protoss (for now) seem to have the ability to wage war on an unprecedented scale.
looks like halo in a way :)

Ditto. And yeah, I'm afraid the 3D will ruin it too.
Furthermore, Starcraft presents a much higher bar than War2 and Diablo. It's simply the best RTS of all time. They said in their FAQ that they topped War2 and Diablo, which I agree with, but those tasks are child's play compared to topping Starcraft =\

This deserves to be in the gaming forum due to GAMING nature of the discussion.
Merged. :)
As long as it's not in 640x800 I'll be happy with the game. Although, after watching the demo it seems like this game requires an entire relook at strategy, for there seems to be a counter to everything that used to work. This might make balance, which Starcraft had, oh boy did it have it, very hard to do.
I just watch those video, and well, unless other races get special stuff as well. Those protoss mothership makes this game sooo unbalance lol

Zerg/Terran do not get a mothership-like unit. It said so on some IGN article.
Some guy said something really smart:
QuoteI personally think that the reason Blizzard made WoW is so they don't have to charge jack shit for Starcraft 2.

Sounds promising.
Excellent! A "true sequel to Starcraft." That's great to hear! :D
Dude, those comments are freakin' hilarious.
New leaked video. :D

EDIT: Look towards the back after the gameplay of the Archon and you can see a reaver. :o
The new archon looks awesome, and I also really like the Tempest (ie: carrier).

Interesting read.

lol.
QuoteWill any familiar characters from "StarCraft" and "Brood Wars" be returning to "StarCraft II?"
Yes. The storyline will follow the main story arc that we left off in "Brood Wars," just a couple of years after that. You can certainly expect to see many of the returning characters.
President of game design referred to SC at "Brood Wars." ;D
Some more goodies (may include spoilers):

Man..I NEED this game.
QuoteThe only thing I can give you [that's] concrete is it's not going to be this year. Some people were hoping, because of how advanced the game looks, that we'd have it out by Christmas, but that's definitely not happening.
DAMN!

My opinion remains the same. Terran just have too much of a forward advantage in SC2 so that zerg are no longer as attractive as they once were.
Hell, even Protoss can have a quick forward with Warp in Units at Pylons.
I think the intent is to make the game more fast paced, with shorter matches (much like they did with Warcraft 3).

Average War3 game lasted... ~20 minutes? Starcraft games lasted longer? :|

Not your games. You suck.
Starcraft II is probably going to suck.
StarCraft 2 is most certainly going to be a different feel, but I don't think it's going to suck that much. It'll still be fun to play, imo.

Something like that is less of a "you crossed the line" and more of a "oh no no, look behind you".
