After seeing LOTR: FOTR , it kinda seems like WCIII is a partial ripoff of LOTR.

mostly Arthas and the death knights.

actually, Warcraft is a rip off of warhammer ( grinskins, steam tank, countless stuff in fact ), which is loosely based on tLotR. Funny thing is, warhammer40k has evolved a lot for the few last years, and has obviously taken great inspiration from starcraft :) ( don't believe me? look at the new tyranids :p )
Well they're all great, so they can't copy each other as much as they want if they're doing it smart, they only become even better.

Maybe now they'll make StarCraft 2...and stop dicking around with console games and get back to PC!

I hope......

Kind of funny thing is that SC was originally based on WH40K if I'm not mistaken...

Probably, I remember seeing concept art with either a marine or Raynor that had "warhammer40k" scrawled on it.

The guy sitting at the box next to me, his head just exploded, and a pair of little midgety type things crawled out of the neck stump and ran away. Should I be worried?

Hey, that was what my friend said also! He is a really big fan of the Warhammer 40K series. He collects almost everything from that game.

yeah, one of those, I wonder if it's not Lightbringer tho. there's also a lot of lines from starwars and other movies in WC3.
