World of Starcraft

I think this is an April Fools joke, but on gamespot.com there is an article on World Of Starcraft. While I am skeptical on this, I think that this would be an amazing game indeed (Better than WoW baby!)

Solar System of Starcraft just doesn't have the same ring to it. But this game is going to be absolutely, enormously huge, and it's going to completely destroy your social life and your work ethic. We absolutely cannot wait.


What game hasn't that line been used on?

Thinkgeek and Google always have the coolest, though Lifehacker and Gizmondo have pretty cool ones too.

This article made me sad because of the deviations from canon. Like, Starcraft took place in the Koprulu Sector, not just one solar system. And that female Protoss exist (Raszagal). And that the entireity of the Protoss military are Templar, not just the High or Dark Templar. That means Zealots and Dragoons are still Templar. And the biggest error is thinking that maybe, just maybe, Blizzard will release a game on time. We all know, I'm sure, that is physically impossible. A World of Starcraft beta will only be released after we're all dead.

It was without a doubt an April Fool's joke.:P Easiest way to tell was the posted time which was April 1 at 12:01 AM.
