Well my buddy is working on the cinematics, but no, I haven't actually 
played SC2 yet, but I have seen the game "in action" on You Tube, and I'm 
sorry, it looks like StarCraft 2 to me. I also NEVER said I played it or I 
knew for a fact that the game was going to be like StarCraft 1, I said... 

"[that] if anyone thinks that game is going to be anything more than an 
expansion to Starcraft 1, they are fooling themselves."

...and now that I think about it, saying it was going to be nothing more 
than an expansion to Starcraft 1 was inaccurate. I SHOULD of said, "nothing 
more than a clone of Starcraft 1."

Actually my original statement was MUCH kinder than what I meant to say.

I said this because Starcraft is a franchise, it's hard to break from that. 
I mean if Blizzard wants to turn StarCraft into a FPS, I'm sure they'd do 
it *Cough* Ghost *Cough*, but Blizzard isn't one to take one universe, 
start it as one genre, then change it into another.

Starcraft 2 will be EXACTLY like Starcraft 1, polished and shaped to 
Diamond Quality (or the most perfect piece of shit, depending on if you 
like the game or not). There I said it, go away. fanboi...

I think I also said, if Blizzard does it any other way, Korea will remove 
their testicles with a nail clipper, and I think South Korea has nukes, so 
we better not fuck with them.
