i just did sex wee.

Hmmm. I'd guess we're going to see the Xel'Naga as a side in this, could that be what some of those odd units on the screenshot page are? What about the Zerg/Protoss hybrid they hinted at? Surely they can't balance 5 sides as well as they did the original 3, which they got pretty lucky with in the first place.

Those graphics do look nice though. Not too over-complex, and it looks to handle a ton of units on screen. Here's hoping it runs nice and responsive.

EDIT: Or not. Looks like the units I couldn't identify are some kind of Protoss mini-Dragoon.

"battlecruiser operational"

afraser2k · 19 May 2007 at 10:00

but it seems like Blizzard didn't want to mess with SC's underlying formula very much

Sounds like the Starcraft fans are going to be happy.

Bah i wanted Diablo 3! Starcraft 2 doesn't look any different to C&C 3 TW if you ask me.
