It all lead up to this: StarCraft II. After months of speculation Blizzard announced today at their World Wide Invitational in Korea that their next big project is StarCraft II for PC.

Blizzard president Mike Morhaime says, "With StarCraft II, we'll be able to do everything we wanted to do with the original StarCraft and more ... We recognize that expectations are high following the long-running popularity of the original game, but we plan to meet those expectations and deliver an engaging, action-packed, competitive experience that StarCraft players and strategy gamers worldwide will enjoy." Meanwhile, IGN's man in Korea, Charles Onyett says, "SC2 looks, at least visually, strikingly similar to SC1 - both in unit and map designs."

This has been Blizzard's longest gap between releases. Blizzard had a consistent two-year release schedule (not including expansion packs) since 1994 with the original WarCraft. That streak was broken in 1996 when StarCraft: Ghost was killed indefinitely postponed. Although no release date has been given for StarCraft II, hopefully gamers won't have to worry about another installment of the series being "postponed."

That's gonna be a dope game.

What's not dope is my neighbor's dog. I'm gonna kill that fucking thing one of these days, barking at me when I walk out of my own goddamn apartment all the time. Poison its water or some shit. And how come I can make the phone ring by jerking off? It's like some magical power. And you know what, that game looks like shit actually. Fuck that game, and fuck this board. And fuck UPS delivery guys; I'm tired of them acting like they don't give a shit about what they're delivering me. Like they don't wanna know what's in the packages. If I was a delivery guy I'd ask everyone "what THE FUCK IS IN THIS BOX!? HUH!?" I'd be like "TELL ME WHAT'S IN THE FUCKING BOX BITCH!!" And fuck the cable company, over-charging motherfuckers. And fuck all the French people on Xbox Live, and fuck Gladys Knight...there I said it. That smug bitch. I gotta be up in five hours for work and it's bullshit - the work, as well as the getting up early. Fuck that, and fuck this board.
