Few games far into the horizon can capture the collective imagination of QJ's Games For Windows team, but StarCraft II definitely more than cuts it. It's been almost a decade since the original came into the scene and every PC gamer who's ever played it is more than ready for the sequel. This video has Blizzard developer Chris Sigaty talking about the game. Check it out:



If you've been listening to his short discussion, you'll realize that the whole game has changed to an extent that you'll still probably feel that you're in the StarCraft RTS universe but with everything smoother and richer than ever. If we know Blizzard as well as we do, they hardly ever miss their targets.

The sad news is the release date's details. This game will come out "when it's ready" and we know what that means. Still, that's the Blizzard School of Thought for you: it's always an ambitious project with years of polishing. Say, is anyone thinking of Diablo III? We'll probably get to play that with our kids.

you have to buy different technologies to use in game!!!! thats a real let down. I always liked the fact that everythings open to you pretty much all the way through. and if they implement this online i am not buying the game. on the other had it looks great! keep up the good work.
