Actually this is all just a big hoax - a new visual update to Starcraft and Brood War.

The REAL game announcement is actually World of Hello Kitty: Adventurers Isle.

FTW.

I was excited for this...and the cine looks very nice...but judging from the in-games posted a few posts back, it seems they are taking SC2 down the cartoon path. I really had hoped that they would have gone real and gritty with it.

IGN released in-game screenshots, but their site is currently loading pretty slow due to the demand. I hosted them so that people can view them without the slow load times.

Well, here is to Blizz...judging by all the accompanying artwork (cinematic and site) they seem to be thinking 'dinky and cold' so lets hope that it rubs off ingame. A game artist myself I know how much can change in even the last few months of development.

But in any event...'bout damn time! ;)

YES! After almost 10 years. Its good to see they are going back to their roots Even though they are going for a more cartoony look, it might change depending on the phase of development they are in. But it still looks cool!

BTW, the name is actually Starcraft II, just like the old blizzard sequels - roman numbers ftw.
