Starcraft 2 Rumors and Speculations

July 29th, 2009

News regarding the Starcraft 2 release date has been pretty thin lately, as if I were telling you something you didn’t know. So, I spent a few hours here, and a few hours there on the internet watching/reading people arguing with each other about the silliest details of the Starcraft game.

For instance a serious pair of fans were arguing about the Nydus worm, and since they have teeth whether or not they should be allowed combat unit status. I can only assume that they were saying that it should be allowed to bite passersby. You know, that’s a visual I did not need. I can only hope that Blizzard wasn’t listening.

Oh yes, there was the lovely conversation I stumbled upon as to what Kerrigan and Jim Raynor’s babies might look like given her current state. Again, this was a visual I did not need. Sarah Louise Kerrigan is my heroine, and she is ranked as one of the 50 greatest female videogame characters of all time, even if she is infested by Zerg DNA and intent upon becoming leader of the swarm.

Oh wait, it gets even better. Some guy was proposing that the little fish swimming around with the Protoss unit could actually be critical to its survival. My bet is that it just took a wrong turn. One can only hope he was not serious.

Now, I’m not saying that there’s any real big hurry – wait, oh yes I am. I am saying that if this current drought in news about the Starcraft 2 release date continues we may be subjected to discussions as to “The secret powers of the goldfish swimming around in the Protoss tank that is a love child of a Protoss and Sara Louise Kerrigan”. I’m not sure I could survive that.
