Starcraft 2?

If anyone has been to the blizzard website in the last 22 hours, they will have noticed a count down timer with 2 and a half hours left (from the time of this post) and in the background is what appears to be a woman wearing hightech armour and a gun. Could this be Starcraft 2 (or maybe some other Starcraft game?)

Can't Blizzard come up with anything on their own? Console to boot. Screw them!

Console team working on Ghost
The WoW team working on that (formerly of Diablo II I have a hunch)
And the RTS ppl working on StarCraft II. Why? Because it's been 4 (FOUR!) years since SC came out, and if they wait until this Ghost comes out to START on it, i'll be retired before it sees the light of day (I'm a Junior in college!). Frankly, I think they have already started on it. Prolly use the War3 engine, just suped up a bit and hopefully with a lot darker texture pallette. Look for the announcement at E3 in the spring.
Ghost is being done by another developer anyway, so it's not really "on their plate" so to speak.

Hopefully they'll use the same core (I really don't mind the engine), but maybe up the poly counts and add some fun DX8/9/10 or whatever is out when it finally sees the light of day shaders to it.
I doubt the basic gameplay elements will be changing too much..they run the risk of alienating a lot of people..and hopefully they will remove the emphasis on heros, esp for multi-player... Single player is OK, but heros are a pain in MP, and if one dood gets lucky and hits lvl 6 with one before everyone else, the game is basically over...or if the insane computer AI hits level 6 with a hero in the first 5 mins..
Anyone remember Starfleet Command? [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

There is a very high probability of at least one new race in SC II, so that alone would spice things up a bit. New/changed units would also be a plus.
The basic formula, flow, and feel of starcraft I really like, and wouldn't mind playing more of, esp with a new story and a new race/unit mix.
As far as ghost is concerned,it would look worlds better on a PC than any console currently available,especially by the time it's actually released...
Especially on mine..(Radeon 9700 equipped).. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img].
