Well, finally we can all see what Ex-Swingin Apes have made for this game!
http://www.blizzard.com/

Ghost site redesigned.....it's for our current gen consoles so dun look the best.

Anyway it takes 4 years after brood war.

The graphics are not nearly as cartoony as nihilistic had em :)!!!!!.

Well I'm not really looks to forward to this game but whatever ^_^.
 
/me agrees with Shens on this one.
 
looks very unexciting... i think i wont be buying anymore xbox games.
 
Man...This game was a bad bad baaaaaad move to make.
Scrap it, and make Starcraft 2 god dammit!

You know very little about ghost..
Just until...a day or 2 ago... Blizzard was only overlooking the project.
Meaning they just announced stuff.
A diffrent company was making it.
Now Blizzard acquried that company and took all there staff...so now when the game is released Blizzard will gain more profits though the same people are working on it.

Thus Blizzard could have been working on Sc2 for a very long time considering this game had no real effect on there development teams.

The game was still a bad move, to SC fans though.
Sure, I know very little about it...But so what?
I admit that the multiplayer looks intriguing.
 
Make World of Starcraft!

This looked exciting back when it was Gamecube exclusive and billed as a launch title. Now it looks....unexciting. I think we have been spoiled in all honesty :p

They did not make the move.
I am an SC fan. The fact is that yes alot of Sc fans see it as a bad move because most SC fans are very uneducated about Sc:G. Nihilistic was the one who made the bad move. They made a bad game which led to it being delayed more and more and really(Blizzard wont let a crappy game get released with there name on it)... Blizzard only controlled Annoucments and out of game cinamatics, who made it, and if it was up to standards to have there name on it.

Okay, fine.
ffs, I don't want to argue about it.
I still want Starcraft 2. :| :frown:
 
I think we all want Sc2......I think we all crave Sc2....
 
IMO starcraft gosht is a very cool idea cuz give another look to starcraft

but still the delays hav make this game unexciting now but still I am waiting for it

and whit the hell say that looks like halo?

now a shooting game cant hav vehicles cuz everybody will think that is like halo?

the idea of drive vehicles was since the first anouncements of the game
 
Because it does. The trailer really reminds me of Halo and UT2k4. The textures, models, etc. bare a slight resemblance.

What, did I ever say it looked bad? No, I did not.

It's Blizzard damn it.

The only reason most people seem to not like this game is because it's not Starcraft 2.

Frankly, those people are all fools.

The game looks good. Not excellent at this point, as there's still quite a bit of polish to put on, but good. The graphics are nothing special, but have Blizzard's stamp all over them. It's not Halo 2, but it still looks good and there are some nice effects and animations. Sound seems to be great, considering the voice acting and Blizzard's consistent quality in this department. The game seems to be a little more action-oriented now, something I'm not surprised or even annoyed at. The game uses some concepts from Halo, as some have said, but every game with vehicles in it is suddenly a Halo clone in their eyes, so that's total BS. The stealth kills look remarkable, as do the buttom combinations. Seems to be very different than Metal Gear and Splinter Cell in how it plays, not just in how it looks. All in all it's shaping up quite well, and when it's released I'm sure we'll see a game of the quality we've come to expect from Blizzard.

Now stop complaining about Starcraft 2. It's coming, dammit, and this game is not it.

I think the fact that is only in consoles is the principal reazon
 
I am absolutely buying this game. Blizzard could vomit into a plastic bag and i'd still buy it.

Thank god they're still making those kickass fully CG cutscenes, that's my favourite thing about Blizzard games.

I will quote a halo fan from a magazine,
"A game (Half-Life) copied Halo by adding vehicles in it's sequel."
Yes, that was just about how it was written....it was....sad... I mean...i've heard some sad things but that was just....stupid?

and whats that means whit my post?

still that was stupid ans show the halo fans hav just played halo in all theyr life

and the most old fps whit vehicles I can remenber is operation flashpoint
 
Yeah, I'm a fan of starcraft and everything, but playing it on a fps level just brings out the goofiness of Starcraft. I mean, look at the freaking tanks, that just looks stupid. But I can't wait to see the Zerg.

They do indeed look similar. I make one offhand comment about how it looks interestingly similar and you guys are on me like a pack of rabid fanboys.

Seriously, what the hell? I just said it looked like Halo. And not just the goddamn vehicles. The gameplay reminds me way more of Splinter Cell then Halo.
Eerily similar.

and than there are all the magazines that say that games copied certain hl2 aspects .. HMM ?
 
What's going to matter is the gameplay. Well, and those kickass CG movies.

It doesn't look all too bad. And hey, it's StarCraft.

Man that was a great game, I remember when I got my first abrams, for some reason I decided to blow up all the buildings in my "city".
That was a great game!:D

This was a person sending in an email to the magazine and it got put in the magazine.
In other words what im trying to say,
"Yes some people do believe any games with vehicles is a copy of Halo"

Which is sad.
 
...and halo copied tribes by adding vehicles in it's game. ;)
 
Well, that's just taken the cake. Massive court battles loom large.
