Protoss, Terran, and Zerg. These three distinct and
powerful races will clash once again in the fast-paced real-time
strategy sequel to the legendary original, StarCraft. Legions of
veteran, upgraded, and brand-new unit types will do battle across the
galaxy, as each faction struggles for survival.
Featuring a unique single-player campaign that picks up where StarCraft: Brood War left off, StarCraft II will present a cast of new heroes and familiar faces in an edgy sci-fi story filled with adventure and intrigue. In addition, Blizzard will again offer unparalleled online play through Battle.net, the company's world-renowned gaming service, with several enhancements and new features to make StarCraft II the ultimate competitive real-time strategy game.

The orginal starcraft was awesome and the playability and community kept it going well beyond the shelf life the the technology, I can't wait to see what Blizzard have in the wings for us with SC2. I mean it's not likey're short of money with WoW making a close a $100million/month in subscriptions they shouldn't be under any financial pressures to rush it out, saying that - I don't want to wait too long....
This is going to be main RTS game for the Asian gaming market going forward. It will be very interesting to see how well it does in Europe and the N. America
