StarCraft II On Target For '09 Release

[TaborMallory]

Sounds solid; but knowing Blizzard, they'll hold the game until next year...

Ah what the hell. Fuck yeah, Starcraft 2!

I'm with the rest of the doubters, it'll be a Spring '10 release at the earliest.... which I'm ok with with that means more possible free beta action.

To Blizzard, from my favorite artist Salvador Dali:

?Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it.?

Starcraft II coming out in '09, huh? Yeah, so is Duke Nukem Forever... I'll believe it when it's sitting on a shelf at my local store.

Nah, Blizzard are actually capable of making a game inside of 10 years, heh .

Anywho, I'm looking forward to the continuing of the single player story, hopefully they won't have completely ignored it in favour of the multiplayer.

Huh, I should really get back to completing Brood War sometime soon...

I thought I had until at LEAST 2018...

Set aside a weekend, it's time well spent. <3
I replayed both SC and BW about half a year ago.

The game's been playable - and awesome - since at least last year's BlizzCon. Honestly, I have no idea what the hell they'll have been doing in the year since I played what could have passed for a final product in Irvine

One word: perfection. In 2006 I played a perfectly release-able Starcraft:Ghost demo on the E3 floor, but that didn't stop them from scrapping it altogether. Now, that's definitely not to say that there's any chance in hell that they'd scrap SC2, but it tells you a lot about their storied work ethic and when they say "it's done when it's done" they damn well mean it!

Duke nukem forever s on it`s way and it awesome ,just watch yahtzee review XD

It's about effin time... but did we have to wait about a decade just for sequal? I know the time is given to polish it but Halo made a trilogy, and improved greatly (gameplay wise) before Starcraft made a sequal. Also look at Starcraft: Ghost... that was trashed after years of anticipation. But I'm looking forward to Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3, I want those games so bad.

Please tell me you guys are joking. I really hope you're being sarcastic, because otherwise you not only believe what Yahtzee said about the controls (X to pick your nose, bumpers to wiggle your ears, etc), you also can't read, which makes me wonder you can write... You do know that Yahtzee's review was a joke, right? It was his way of commenting on the fact that Take Two has had enough and is suing 3DRealms for not developing the game that they've been payed to develop. 3DRealms is going out of business. DNF is dead.

Sorry for going off topic. Please don't reply to this in this thread... It's supposed to be about Starcraft II.

Should we start unfreezing all those rich Starcraft players now?
Free up some space in the cryogenics labs.


It better be PRETTY.DAMN.GOOD.
11 years is too long a time to wait for a game.

"Hell... it's about time."
Remember those words? I first heard them a little over two years ago. It IS about time.

Sadly, I agree here
