That's no good. We will probably never have the chance at testing and having fun with these.

About a year ago they also axed a few Terran vehicles too. Oh well.

well it's hardly a problem . Starcraft beta and the final product were completely different games .

Actually looking back at it , War3 seems to be what they were going toward with the older starcraft builds .

Anyway of course skills and powers are tweaked and removed without a chance to try them .
And some of those reappear revamped on the addons .

but when I switched to terran, I realized just how much the protoss suck. No wonder barely any top top tier pro uses protoss. everything is just so expensive and the freaking emp effectively cuts everything protoss down to size. Sucks...

Blizzard are constantly adding and removing new features and units. Many of them we don't even know about.

Well, as long as they keep the Carrier. Love the carrier :)

Seems that there's more action going on behind closed doors, the rumour mill will be working overtime again!

"Keep in mind that we try to make all 3 races as distinct as possible, so it is not that each race has to have something similar. "

Thats what I love about blizzard's rts games they seem so different in races but yet they can be so balanced at same time each being unique and requiring different skills to play them. Really looking forward to SC2 in fall of this year (HOPEFULLY).

In Hindsight, Starcraft 2 Had The Best Gaming Community Out There

DS writes: "Like many people who grew up with their eyes glued to their TV screens and monitors, in my youth, I used to think that playing video games for a living was the best job in the world. Little did I know that getting to the point where you can earn decent money playing video games takes a tremendous amount of work and sacrifice, and there’s a good chance you’ll fail even if you give it your all."

Every Blizzard Game Ranked From Worst to Best

BLG writes: "In a little over a decade, Blizzard went from a company that could seemingly do no wrong to one embroiled in an endless stream of controversies and scandals. Unfortunately, the quality of Blizzard games suffered greatly as a result. But while it’s easy to criticize the current state of Blizzard Entertainment, it’s safe to say that many of the company’s games still hold a special place in our hearts. This is why I decided to take a little trip down memory lane and reminisce about all the Blizzard games put out over the past three decades. Yep, we’re going all the way back to the beginning with this one."
