According to a Korean newsletter partially translated by Teamliquid.net, "StarCraft 2 will be revealed for the first time to the world at Blizzard's World Wide Invitational (WWI)." According to the letter, Blizzard will also use the event, which takes place in Seoul, South Korea, on May 19 and 20, to show off the game, which reportedly has full 3D graphics, a revamped combat system, and a new race.

Back to the good ol' marine/medic/seige tank combo.

With enough of them moving slowly forward (leapfrogging each other in groups) everything goes splat.

Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Until Blizzard confirms it, they are a bunch of assholes.

Yeah atm this is just speculation. Blizzard havent said anything about it other than they will announce a game. Which could mean many possibilities.

Yeah, but if you think about it, it must be Starcraft 2 if they are announcing that in Seoul.

I hope it's true. I've been waiting for a new Starcraft ever since I stopped playing the first one.

Warcraft and Starcraft are traditionally RTS's.

So does Doom, but it's classic beyond belief.

Hope it's D3, although I doubt it.

Unless Blizzard wants their HQ firebombed by angry Koreans I'm thinking it will be SC2...

If only...I have heard (nothing reliable) that Diablo is more or less dead. Nice to know there's still people that want a D3, though.

Well of course it looks like shit. It's old as hell, doesn't make it a bad game.

I'm excited. I never enjoyed Warcraft as much as StarCraft for some reason. Hydra drops were so fun when they worked. OMGZERG! (Terran is my favorite though.)

The game was worthless compared to TA{total annihilation} at the time, as the new one with be worthless compared to supreme commander. Blizzards advertising kicks butt though, it will be a hit with the old fans.
They really disappointed me though as I was expecting diablo 3.
