World of Starcraft--World Exclusive Hands-On Preview Impressions First Look
To put it mildly, the human brain cannot possibly fathom and the English language cannot possibly express how amazingly incredible the next massively multiplayer game from Blizzard is going to be. First screens and details!
It's time to drop out of school, quit your job, divorce your spouse, disown your children, cancel your gym membership, upgrade your PC, and clear out your schedule for World of Starcraft. Hot on the heels of the unprecedented success of its first massively multiplayer online role-playing game, Blizzard Entertainment is taking its other best-known real-time strategy brand and doing it up proper.

-----------------------------------

We've only caught a glimpse of a work-in-progress version of World of Starcraft so details are scarce at this time, but we're already prepared to lay all our credibility and all your trust in us on the line by predicting that this will surely end up being GameSpot's 2007 Game of the Year when it finally comes out, assuming it doesn't get delayed. After all, when you take World of Warcraft; replace the "Warcraft" with "Starcraft;" fix a whole bunch of World of Warcraft's problems; introduce a whole new set of mechanics and gameplay features; and throw in stim packs, psionic storms, and devourers, you obviously have a completely different and even better game.
read the rest on the link

some pics though

I never played starcraft *dodges the vegetables*. But I'd play that if they ever did it. I like sci fi, particularly games where you can become monstrous robot thingies.

It's a April Fools joke the story was posted on April 1st at 1201am. Normally they wouldn't update the site till midday. This was an obvious April Fools Joke just like Blizzard saying the Wisp is the new Alliance Player Race
