Gamespot Previews World of Starcraft

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the zerg-rush dept.

ScaryFroMan writes "Gamespot has a preview up of Blizzard's new MMO, World of Starcraft. From the article: "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." Sounds about right to me. ;)

    I wish, it would be really cool to see a Starcraft MMO. Now If-Only ghost would come out first.

    Considering they have http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/060324/20060324005315.html ?.v=1shelved Ghost. It's looking rather grim for the Starcraft Universe (At least until their cash cow (pony?) gets milked into oblivion (awaits)).

    World of Starcraft would be about the only game that could challenge World of Warcraft in subscription numbers.

  8. The absolute worst part of April 1st... by GeorgeMcBay · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The absolute worst part of April 1st isn't the deluge of stupid "pranks" listed on sites like Slashdot, but rather the few gems of stories that you WISH were true and could/should be true, but aren't.

    As a former but recovered WoW addict, I can say that you'd get my $60 and monthly dues again for at least another year and a half if you made this happen, Blizzard. I'd love to play a GOOD sci-fi MMORPG.
