Default Starcraft II Announced!

It is now official!

StarCraft II

Blizzard has just announced Starcraft 2.

Starcraft was one of my personal favorite Blizzard Games (along with Diablo and Diablo II.)

Comes with spiffy new 3-D graphics, new physics engine, new units and capabilities for the Terrans, Protoss and Zerg. The game's capable of handling hundreds of units at once, which is great when you really want an unforgettable Zergling rush!

/me rushes to retrieve his Starcraft CDs and fire them up in WINE to prepare...

That has to be easily one of the most awesome trailers I've ever seen... "hell, it's about time". The marine is you (me) the gamer! You've been imprisoned by boredom and reality for so many years, and finally - after nearly ten years - you're being released into the world of Starcraft to have fun again!

i was a revolutionary RTS game. It was very well thought out and balanced. The gameplay itself was very strategic, and with the right people playing, intense. Back in the day anyway.

OK then, my friend has a copy, I guess I could borrow it from him. But how well does it work on Wine/Cedega?
