@AS: they will more likely keep all their stratagy games (exception of D1 and D2) free online…. they are making enough money from WOW to do that… even then before Wow ever came out. having the games free on battle Net. they been doing pretty good. So more likely it will be free online

WOW, I can’t wait to see the new units. The protoss units are so cool!!! They have units that can actually teleport & charging in!!! Wonder do they still have the Dragoon? Can’t wait to see how the Dark templar, High Templar, Arkon & Dark Arkon look like.

I also want to see the Vulcan & other units from Terran. Wonder did they still have the old Fire Bats? “Need a light?”

As for the Zergs, wonder they still can infest the terran base & create infested marines? Really can’t wait to know more!!!! (^__^)

@ Adun: If SC2 goes the way of SC: Ghost, Blizzard better prepare for a KEKEKEKEKEKE ^_^ Korean rush on their headquarters.

@ AS: Blizzard is known for developing games for a generation back, so I’m sure the requirements won’t be too steep.

I’m expecting great expectations for this game. Kind of reminds of C&C 3 Tiberium Wars. Hopefully it comes out on time. I just hope my laptop can handle it and they will permit free online play, but probably not with everything becoming p2p.

This is definitely the best news of the month for me. I’m also expecting a 2008 release as I don’t think we’ll get a disappointment like the SC:Ghost announcement. There is a lot of backing behind SC2 now that it would be stupid for Blizzard to back out of it now. But then again, WoW’s expansion did kept getting pushed back…

@ Psi: Hmm, true about SC: Ghost. But that’s the exception rather than the rule, Blizzard knows that everyone is pining for this game, another screw up in the SC franchise would mean its death, they can’t screw it up.

As long as they get it out eventually, all is well.

@ Karry: That’s the direction that newer RTS are taking, though in SCII’s case, it doesn’t look all that bad. Even in the last video between Terran and Toss, I could identify each unit and what was going on, and my micro skills aren’t great.

On the other hand, when I play Supreme Commander, I have no clue what’s going on and often my units die without getting put to good use =(

Don’t know about that prediction, Starcraft Ghost was supposed to come out so long ago and it was delayed to a point of no return.
