And so the hyping of... my-fave-game-of-all-time begins...
sigh... they better have made the campaign good and long after killing LAN play!!:banghead:
Still, I'm quivering with anticipation. This could, but probably won't, have made a great movie. It's a shame that Hollywood tends to ruin game to movie ports...:shadedshu

Now, on subject... keyboard sux and mousepad... would be better if it was all black, lol!:laugh:

Nope -- you'll only get the Terran campaign first, followed by expansions for the zerg and protoss that you'll have to buy separately. I wish I was joking, but this is what the news was the last time I heard it. :shadedshu

yeah, that's what's happening. I've been trying to put a positive spin on it in my head, "3 releases means 3 times the fun," but then another voice says... "and 3 times the money".
Damn all these voices in my head, and Blizzard being so money hungry... :p
