StarCraft II Beta Slips out of 2009

[RSS Feed]

Initially said to be making a nuclear strike on our free time in 2009, StarCraft II’s beta test has officially shoved off into the murky, fog-of-war shrouded depths of 2010.

StarCraft II producer Chris Sigaty made the announcement during a presentation at Russian games expo IgroMir, much to the chagrin of the year 2009, which – after providing chronological sanctuary for a global economic crisis and the tragic deaths of multiple beloved celebrities – needed some sort of positive highlight to keep it from going down in history as the worst year ever. When reached for comment, 2010 had only this to say: “Neener-neener-neener.”

For the time being, StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty is still set to launch in the Spring of 2010. Could another delay be just around the corner, though? We sure hope not – but even if Blizzard decides to take its sweet time putting the finishing touches on its space-faring sequel, it’s not like early 2010 is hurting for major game releases.

God dammit.

Your sig is quite large. Blizzard has a history of continually delaying games, so it's not surprising. At least Starcraft AI development is starting to bloom.

Oh no! The hackers waiting for SC2 won't be able to get things active with SC2 hacks that they "will" create. I mean, this is real stuff. You don't joke about all the things they are going to create.

The title is misleading. In the forum index I see "StarCraft II Beta Slips out...".

Yeah man, I went from "Oo fun!" to "Bloody hell."
