Blizzard has announced their new game…
StarCraft:Ghost…and it seems to only be for the X-Box!!!
Until I hear different, I would like to give a great big “Fuck You!” to Blizzard!!!:mad:
Well, they need better servers, their’s is STILL down, who would have thought they would have had massive traffic as their timer went down to 0?
One month ago, I would have been so with you on this rant. I’d have had steam coming out my ears, I’d be so mad. I’d be advocating bloody revolution and anarchy.
Now I’ve got an X-Box.

(Cheer up, they’ll port it eventually.)
True enough…
GTAIII was ported and it was better on the PC…Halo is being ported, so…
…but i’m still pissed.
I’ve been dying to play a new SC game for ages…
Well, then yo definately shouldn’t beat Warcraft 3 on hard, and see the surprise…
I’m back to REALLY pissed…
Dude, all that means is they aren’t working on it right now. Every PC game Blizzard has released to date has sold over a millions copies. There is no way in hell they’re going to ignore that market. If they haven’t ported it within a year of the X-Box release, I’ll eat my gamepad.
What you said makes perfect sence…
But just let me be pissed, huh? 
Never! You’re gonna cheer up if I have to come over there and beat some happy into you! 
Starcraft: Ghost is for ALL consoles. Though I’m still pissed that it isnt Starcraft 2. Bastards.
Well, with any luck the X-Box will have some miserable sales figures and MS will pull the plug.
For “all” consoles? Why do I have the feeling that I won’t be able to buy a copy for my PSOne, eh?

Oh, Dragonblink, get with the times, wouldja? PSOne’s old and outdated. All its games are utterly useless and lame now. It couldn’t POSSIBLY have any good games!
Now, good ol’ NES, on the other hand…
(Hey, I’m lookin’ forward to SC:G… I’ve always said that a StarCraft FPS would kick ass.)
I think this is going to be one of the best games for console, simply because Blizzard has a very good track record for delivering great games. It looks like this will be a cross between Halo and Metal Gear Solid 2.
And, I think it’s only coming out on Gamecube and Xbox, simply because they’re far more capable than PS2 and far easier to program for.
Quite simply, I can’t wait until it’s out! I’ve always loved the Starcraft universe more than Warcraft or Diablo.
It really confuses me why people hate consoles so much, though.
Blizzard does have an excellent record – the closest thing they’ve had to a flop was the original Warcraft, which was only a flop compared to the much more successful Warcrafts 2 and 3.
However, SC:G is being codeveloped with Nihilistic, which has a pretty lackluster track record. The only game of theirs I can think of off the top of my head is the decidedly mediocre Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption.
Could be a winner, could be Blizzard’s first total stinker. Who knows?
Yeah, and we all know that it’s not going to be console-only for very long. Blizzard just can’t say no to the potential million or so PC owners, who don’t have a console, that want to buy the game.
Main article is Starcraft: Ghost.
I either figured it was snowing where you were or Dairy Queen had really fugged up.
Today’s Penny Arcade makes the point that Blizzard is farming out the coding and art work for Starcraft: Ghost, basically just licensing their name for the product. That being the case, I’m not sure the game will be worth bitching about.
