 Best Buy

Circuit City

Gamestop 

 Could this be a hint from Blizzard? 

If you guys want to send a


If you guys want to send a message to Blizzard, don't buy it. Make them wait a year or 2 before you get it. Serve them right.

You shouldn't let your


You shouldn't let your frustrations with the release delays of this game, tempt you to boycott Starcraft 2. I am a long time fan of Blizzard. They've always produced fantastic titles, and IMO, never slacked the slightest into making sure the game was created to its fullest potential. If Blizzard needs extra time to insure the upcoming titles will be just that, than all the power to them. I'd rather the game take longer to produce, and come out the best it could be, rather than it being released earlier and being lesser of what it was capable of. Keep doing what youre doin, Blizzard!

I actually wonder what they are working on for that long, I mean...they said they would be working on the storymode but the game is already out in korea, so doesn't that mean they are just translating the rest of the game if the modeling and desining is done ...?

I mean look what they are doing over there,the game is so complete that Blizzcon starts to do tournaments while we wait ourself stupid

im pretty sure that the release date will once again be post poned making our dicks softer and softer until it gets to the point where it doesnt even turn us on anymore

Its not like its going to be


Its not like its going to be completely diffrent from the first game. All you people who say that its going to suck compared to the old SC arent thinking through it. sure a few units might be taken out but they will be replaced with dozens more that we will come to love. i read somewhere on the site that the edditior will contain all the units they took out while developing the game and the ones that where from the original so no worries, you guys will still be able to see the awsomenes of the firebat. it would be nice if it came out quicker but i really dont want one of those games that come out half made and need one gig patches and the like. those types of games really upset me.

even if it becomes laggy


even if it becomes laggy they are still going to fix ie before it comes out.

well then its gonna take


well then its gonna take even longer.

well i hope we aren't


well i hope we aren't rushing them because then it might become laggy but anyway i do hope it might come out soon enough

rumors are that there is a


rumors are that there is a "new race" but it is not a playable race. you only face it in the story. I have a few friends who work for blizzard so I'm able to get some inside info... they've told me that they don't even have a set release date yet. it is all depending on how fast they can finish the game and finish the testing. they're hoping to have it done a few weeks before christmas but they aren't promising that it will be out before then. so you might be looking at a spring release. but you never know

by chance theres a new race


by chance theres a new race its gotta have its place in the univers it cant just be some random thing

cmon guys u rly gotta stop


cmon guys u rly gotta stop lookin how bad its gonna be just imagin the campain editor is gonna be like theres gonna be so many awsome custom game people will make i mean really look wc3 it has anime games with skins sc have "fireworks" its gonna be awsome be positive

It’s true that the game is


It’s true that the game is going to be stunning. People have burst into tears when they saw SC2 on the Blizzcom exhibitions, but will all the things that we love be in the game. I talk about little things such as the parasite that the queen used to spit, or the mind control of the Protos. These things sometimes are what make the game enjoyable or not.

When sc2 was 1st anouced i


When sc2 was 1st anouced i was so pumped but now its jus boring if it comes out late 2009 i prolly wont even buy it

Dudes Sc was a really sweat


Dudes Sc was a really sweat game and i doubt Sc2 wont be as good as we hope jus cause every 1 is exspecting soooooooooooooo much from it

I tend to agree. SC1 was a


I tend to agree. SC1 was a game in a million. Games don’t really impress me much, but I’m hopelessly hooked to SC for the last 10 years. We had to see if SC2 will meet expectations.

dude i have defentailly been


dude i have defentailly been an sc gamer sence the first expansion pack came out like 11 years ago and ya it might not b as we hope because we do expect alot out of it because its been in the process of bein made forever and like what happen to cr ghost?

I'm sorry but stores dont


I'm sorry but stores dont just set a random release date on games. How could that possibly make "noobs" more likely to buy a game? If someone is going to preorder starcraft 2, they're going to preorder starcraft 2, it doesnt matter if theres a release date or not. And in fact, it would be more beneficial for blizzard to come up with a random release date and tell stores like these so they would get some early, guaranteed sales to those chains... However, if this is the release date listed on those sites, i'm sure blizzard is hoping to release the game around that time. Whether or not they are actually able to is an entirely different question.

Actually stores would likely


Actually stores would likely lie or make up release dates, especially near christmas so that more people buy things as christmas presents. Fans of the game will buy even if its the middle of january. But even non-fans might hear about it and preorder it for someone for christmas.

In addition, pre orders get marked for that fiscal year for the company so that, for instance, amazon's fourth quarter fiscal performance is higher than it would be had they listed a more accurate release date.

All the stores that I ask


All the stores that I ask when StarCraft 2 will be out, they refer me to the Internet. It is easier, because then they can go on with their lives and you can do it yourself.

I agree. As long as the


I agree. As long as the product is bug free and working well, it will be worth while waiting for it. I just hope we will see the game in our lifetime.

when has any computer game


when has any computer game ever been "bug free"? every component is made in a different factory slapped together by machines or geeks, all running various non-compatible software running off of problematic versions of windows, and if the pc's ever been connected to the internet, it carries dozens of viruses, all being monitored by terrible tools like securom. I hate to say it being a pc fanatic, but the computer gaming business is dying,...let's kick it.

the pc game industry wont


the pc game industry wont die untill the entire gaming industry does which is... well it might... maybe in like... okay so it might happen when we all die out or somthing. its the only game system that allows users to do... what ever the fuck they want. upload content, download content, look up a guide, download entire games.. for free, upload viruses disguised as content, go to forums, rant about release dates, spend insane amounts of money on the new geforce or radeon card, go to icanhascheezburger, laugh at dumb animals. besides that, when you buy a game for pc, it has endless content, via modders. especially games like fallout 3 or oblivion

its not gonna be release on


its not gonna be release on that date, blizzard isnt trying to hint anything. stores put predicted dates up so they can have garunteed sales from noobs like you guys

A Spokesman from Blizzard


A Spokesman from Blizzard said they are only done with a third of the characters or SC2. That mean we will possible only see SC2 late 2009.
