I see that units still can't move and shoot. LOL :D

I feel another retro-esque Command and Conquer style sequel in the making. graphics look cool though, and hopefully the cinematics will be good, the only reason why I played the original. :beer: And LOL mini tactical cold-war-like nukes ftw! Supcom nukes have much more punch. :p

Crap... I need new pants now.

Starcraft was by far the best RTS ever made. I loved that game. Perfectly balanced, good balance of speed in regards to rushing, engaging story. I could go on, but SC2---->Supcom any day. If blizzard does this right, which I know they will because its blizzard, man I hope it ship sometime in 2007 or early 2008, but knowing blizzards track record, 2009 is more realistic. :santa:

SC fans are a funny bunch. :) Seriously, it's good amusement, all this "perfect balance" to excuse a lack of innovation, but each to their own. ;)
