I wonder when they'll get the Zerg units up? I'm REAL curious of what's new and whats stayed.

Seeing how they've said it's still pre-alpha nothing is final... so even if they put them up it's not sure what stays.

But they have Zergling, Mutalisks and Overlords in the screenshots... and Hydra's in the art work/FMV's.

Alright, my initial guess for release was April 2008, but now I think it would be realistic to push that to Christmas '08. :(

:( that's BAD stuff. Hoefully you are wrong and we get it in April. Problem is that Blizzard wants everything to be perfect in every game they make (startcraft ghost was closed because it wasn't good in their eyes), that's why the games they make don't EVER make the right date they intended to be...

They haven't even revealed the Zerg yet, so I honestly doubt the game will be finished by April.

Hopefully they'll show us the Zerg soon. The longer the wait is, the more distant the release date will be. For now we'll have to make do with the iconic Seige Tank:

Please tell me you're joking. People can't seriously be annoyed because the newer seige tank doesn't have the same type of gun as the old one can they?! Some people have way too much time on their hands. Perhaps they haven't read the entry properly:
The Crucio (Harry Potter? They're scraping the barrel now!) is the Dominion update of the immensely popular but aging Arclite seige tank.
There's a biography for Raynor on the site now:
http://eu.starcraft2.com/features/heroes/raynor.xml
I thought that Kerrigan had destroyed Mengsk's Dominion and left him to live amongst it's ruins (I can't remember the exact quote, but it's along those lines). Now he's back and the Dominion is as strong as ever. Have I missed something?

Crucio is the tanks name, under weapons it has gun size... (and Blizz games have always used plenty of pop-culture references... just look at the cheat codes...)

You need more net experience, if I've interpreted this irritating vernacular properly.

Ok, another hijack just with StarCraft (I.)
The latest patch 1.15.2 allows you to play without CD!
Don't think that you will save space though, you must copy Install.exe to your Star Craft dir and rename it to BroodWar.mpq

(But here are mpq editors, aren'they?)

Now if they would also update the map editor with wide ramps and so, to not to be forced always recreated them in 'fan' editor.
