For those of you who don't know Stracraft that well, it's a game by Blizzard Entertainment (Warcraft, Diablo, World of Warcraft) and is considered by many the best RTS game of all time - if not best game overall. It's known for it's extremely balanced gameplay; overwhelming, competitive and addicting online matches; and well-told story.
So far, it's been said that the game has been in development for over 4 years, by approximately 40 people (most of the guys who made the original), and has no budget (thanks to the gold mine that is WoW).
Features:
* Fast-paced, hard-hitting, tightly balanced competitive real-time strategy gameplay that recaptures and improves on the magic of the original game
* Three completely distinct races: Protoss, Terran, and Zerg
* New units and gameplay mechanics further distinguish each race
* Groundbreaking single-player "story-mode" campaign
* Vibrant new 3D-graphics engine with support for dazzling visual effects and massive unit and army sizes
* Full multiplayer support, with new competitive features and matchmaking utilities available through Battle.net
* Full map-making and scripting tools to give players incredible freedom in customizing and personalizing their gameplay experience
