Blizzard keeps pulling me back...

Right now, considering I've long since given up on playing World of Warcraft, I could care less about all the stuff coming out at Blizzcon about Wrath of the Lichking... but man... I can't wait for Starcraft 2 to come out now... All the new information that's been released about it at Blizzcon is just making it souind more and more awesome... though I really never had any doubt that that would be the case. What's really great though is that Blizzcon has been their showcase for the Terran, which was probably always my favorite race back in the original game and all the new stuff I've been seeing for them is just brilliant. Like the fact that buildings that can't lift off and fly away can just submerge and hide in the ground, or the fact that Terrans will be able to build radar beacons that show red blips of enemies moving in the fog of war... doesn't peel back the fog, just shows you if there are enemies in it or not. Oh, and the new units are AWESOME. They've got an air superiority fighter that transforms into a dual chain gun weilding mecha.... and a giant super mech called the Thor that's so damn big, it can't be built in a facility. You actually have to use SCVs to build on the battle map like a structure and when it's finally done it gets up and walks away. c_c And the damn thing has 4 giant cannons on it's back that do heavy AOE damage that can level command structures all by itself. This game is gonna rule!
