Starcraft 2
Wow Blizzard is finally making a sequel to Starcraft. It looks fucking awesome. When this comes out, sign me up for a copy.
I should note that if I wasn’t going to do science for a career I would be as a 3d animator either for Blizzard or Pixar. They do the best work in their respective fields.

Yeah it looks super sweet. I just hope it runs smoothly and is easy to visually parse… a lot of 3-D games like this are either slow to respond becuase of all the 3-D animations, or are hard to visually parse because of all the complicated stuff going on at once. The original starcraft did a really good job of making very iconic, clean, cartoon-like images for every unit and thier animations, so it was always easy to keep track of what was going on; I hope they won’t lose that going to 3-D (though I htink they’ll probably be good).

i just hope they manage to make it different enough from the old starcraft to keep things interesting.

If you see the preview you will se in one battle there are these protoss units that can traverse hills. So while zelots are walking up a hill these behemoths climb the cliff on the other side.
You could say it will be different enough.
