Is There Going To Be Starcraft 2?
I'm sure most of us, if not 100 percent all of us, hve played Starcraft before in this lifetime. I must say that it is the best game I have ever played yet. Did you know that it is still the most popular game being played online?

But after so long, I'm sure some of us are wondering if Blizzard Entertainment would ever get down to doing a sequel for the game. So far, they have always concetrated on Warcraft series.

I was wondering if anybody here has any thoughts or rumors to share about this topic?

P.S: I know it is off topic. No need to remind me.

nah, don't think so: warcraft and diablo both sold well, so they mad a sequel (and they both had an open ending), Starcraft is not different. There will most likely be a SC2, but knowing blizzard, there's no need to wait for it, coz it won't be soon.

Well SC dosn't suck, but yes im going to buy hw2 anyways. Everyones sick of asking of sc2 is comming out, Blizzard has 2 projects going on right now, and the team that would normally work on sc2 is working on war3, i got that strait from the source. Maybe when war3 is finished they will start sc2, but more likely they will help the WoW team however they can to accelerate her launch date.

The difference, of course, being that Blizzard's publisher isn't looking to screw them over.

Oh, and Earth 21what? Is that another Starcraft (and therefore Dune2) knockoff? Pass. Gimme Starcraft, a friend and two networked PCs and life is good. Who needs anything else?

actually E2150 is unrelated to StarCraft. The only relations are the common RTS concepts (build building, build units kill enemy) and the fact that it has 3 factions (not species unlike some of the corny SC ripoffs which always have an organic, advanced and terran race)

I'm actually not going to say E is better than Star Craft because I like both of them . E for its new look and Star Craft for its nostalgia.


Oh if you want a cool RTS in developement go to www.teridianshadow.com  (it looks quite cool)
