I kind of dislike how, visually, the game doesn't meld as well as the original Starcraft. It looks nice though!How do you mean? The art and interface is literally Starcraft in brilliant 3D.
I think its the fact that its in 3D now. Maybe I have some rose tinted thing going on with how I remember Starcraft but the 3D models in this game seem to stand out harshly from the environment in some cases (basing it off the above screens). The aliasing seems to give me this feeling, I think. Though, it seems like modern games tend to look much better in motion.It's distinguished mentally-challenged in motion. That's the one thing I most distinctly remember from playing it. The move to 3D has upped the animation ante in a noticable way, and it makes the units and the environment feel like one cohesive whole.

The thing to keep in mind is that they are never still. The little idle animations, even something as simple as a ship bobbing in the vacuum, creates this wonderful visual cohesion.
I'm gushing but the game seriously deserves it. SC2 is a perfect example of art direction and attention to detail just trumping the FUCK out of any technical voodoo.
I think you have to see it in motion. Then it makes sense.I think its the fact that its in 3D now.

OT:I have been wondering this for about a year now.
Can you turn off the forum feature that preserves h-scroll by putting a scroll bar underneath the actual pictures? The damn thing is always at the bottom and I don't like the way I have to keep scrolling up and down to see entire pictures.
SC2 confirmed for this year?
SC2 confirmed for this year?SC2 and DOW2 are both 2009 titles.
SC2 and DOW2 in the same year. Oh my God. An embarrassment of riches.
For some reason, these screens just look better than other ones I've seen lately. They don't look like shit.That's what I was thinking. Fuuuuuuuck these look so good. Any word on what the PC requirements will be for this?
SC2 confirmed for this year?
I think it's pretty assured it'll be next year. I wouldn't be surprised to see them launch Lich King in November and then put out SC2 in early February (which is actually a time of year when PC sales are seasonally good, everyone's snowed in and looking for something to whittle away the long nights).
