I've come back from the grave for one reason, to bring you the great news of SC2! With all the rumors and such going around lately, there was doubt of Starcraft 2's coming, it was thought that it may have come off as just another way to get people interested in something different, but it's real, no more lying, no more hiding, 100% confirmed SC2.

Just found a new link too that some people may be interested in considering it's blizzards site and it just came online.

3:44 - As for initial StarCraft 2 impressions - the game looked very similar to SC1 with nearly identical user interface, graphical style and unit proportions nearly the same. There was more flashy lighting effects but it seems like Blizzard didn't want to mess with SC's underlying style very much. The screens they showed the video on didn't display the video very clearly, unfortunately, but the game still looked pretty with some nice animations. We'll have to wait to bring you any updates on what kind of story elements are in SC2 - hopefully they're in the panel discussion.

3:16 - showing space platform environment, land mass floating over planets / nebulae. Showing phoenix units failing to destroy terran battle cruisers - new protoss unit - warprey - flying unit that does increased damage the longer it hits a target with its continuous blue laser.

3:14 - Protoss colossus - huge unit that can blast out dual lasers and use long legs to traverse differences in terrain height - in the demo two of them obliterate about fifty or so zerglings.

3:00 - FMV sequence in a spaceship - looks Terran - zooming in on a metal door - door opening - reveals a guy with a cigar in chains - prisoner - door shuts behind him - there's so much bass the room is shaking - guy steps into some kind of metallic devicce - legs are strapped in - guy rising toward ceiling - Korean text on screen got people very excited - another part of the machine is dropping metal arms on him - machine whirring - applying armor to his torso - extremly detailed visuals here - now guy is strapping on gloves - armor is finally coming together - seems like a Terran marine - rocket jets turn on - zerg now onscreen - Marine delivers a line in Korean - StarCraft 2 officially announced.
