[PC] (StarCraft 2) Apparently Blizzard Still Makes Games!

I wonder what the chances of them making a new franchise is.

Maybe it'll be a Starcraft FPS and play like Natural Selection for Half Life. I'd buy that in a second.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

And Grawl, they're notorious for delays. Probably the worst I've seen (spare Duke Nukem Forever). Compare it to any Zelda. Any Metroid, any Unreal game. 2010.

Heh, last night my friends and I were joking they were going to announce Duke Nukem Forever since they take forever on their development times. Anyone else have the insert in their SC CD case for Diablo 2 with a scheduled release date, like, two years before when it actually happened?

Also, for anyone that cares, I just got an e-mail from EBGames this morning, and Hellgate: London has been pushed back from the beginning of September to the last day of October (lollin at how it's Blizzard people working on this too).

There's nowhere I can't reach.

If they're developing a system that's hoping to appeal to the same base as WoW it is kinda not the best thing for them since they'll have to support two different MMORPG server systems, have two separate dev teams for very similar projects, and most likely won't draw many people that weren't into MMOs to start with.

Of course, since it is Blizzard, if a game is announced they'll probably have plenty of time to phase out WoW before anything gets released.

Oh, and to whoever said MMORPGs aren't popular in Korea; aren't games like RO and the hundreds of other similar ones (ROSE Online and Maplestory to name two that I regret playing) popular over there?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

How many people play online games and never gave Starcraft or Diablo a shot? The only people I can think of are FPS gamers and they might get their chance with the Hellgate: London character where you play it like a FPS.

(Also, for the record, I played SC, BW, and D2 forever and I never tried WoW. My old online hangout before Gamingforce was the Open Tech Support channel on b.net. A bunch of us in the channel actually got invites to E3 as guests from Blizzard but I was only around 13 or 14 so my parents wouldn't let me go. )

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Well, pretty much any tweaks to Starcraft has the potential to make the that suck ass if it's not done properly.

I was speaking idiomatically.

There was an advanced unit editor someone made for SC that allowed you to modify pretty much anything you want about all of the units, so I imagine as long as there's enough units around you could change them to fit the stats of original SC units.

How ya doing, buddy?
