No, not a major surprise, but Blizzard's unveiling of Starcraft 2 is big news, especially in Korea where the game is practically a national sport. The original game - a space themed RTS - was released on PC in 1998, although work on the sequel started in 2003. But as usual with a Blizzard developed title the game will only be released, "when it's ready". So expect to be battling with the Protoss, Zerg and Terrans sometime in the next two years. Personally I'd have preferred a World of Starcraft MMO, but then not everyone is as tired of RTS games as I am. Excited by Starcraft 2 then?
