    Anybody knew about whatever happened to Starcraft Ghost? Was the project discontinued by Blizzard? It's no longer in their website

    Holy Shoot, it's STARCRAFT 2!!!!!!!!!!

    YEEEEHAAAAA!!!!!!

    Sorry the moment I saw this the fanboy in me got really excited. I was part of the beta test of the original Starcraft (yes, playing it from Manila on a 28.8K modem in 1995) and I really really loved this game, been playing it up to last year pa yata i think. Lotsa game hours spent here.

    Hell, it's about time!

    yeah, starcraft is one hell of a game. I can still remember running it on a 486 machine, way back years ago and am amazed that it still runs even on a core 2 up to now with no compatibility issues.

    Can't wait to continue the starcraft saga!

    I wonder if this'll run on an iBook when it comes out? Looks like I may have to get a new desktop for this...

    The FAQ page on the starcraft2 website says that like all previous blizzard games, the game will be compatible with windows and macs. But would it run (or at least run decently) on a PPC mac?

    blizzard is one of the few gaming companies that makes hybrid (pc+mac) installers :)

    Wow, Starcraft was launched 12 freaking years ago... enough time for me to graduate high school, go to college, shift courses, and have 6 years of work experience.

    If there was any reason for me to buy a PC, playing Starcraft without worrying about performance issues would be it (unless I can afford a Mac Pro hehehe).

    All For Aiur!
