TGS Day 2, and the Big Shock from Blizzard

Published by jskelton under Square Enix, blizzard, kingdom hearts, starcraft, tgs 2008 Edit This

As day two of the Tokyo Game Show (TGS) has passed, here’s what’s news: Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (DS) will be released in Feb 2009. Yep, save your Christmas money. Today’s focus at TGS was on a lot of trailers. 1up and IGN have a lot of new previews available.

But screw that. Blizzcon is in swing, and guess what they announced today?

Starcraft II will be three stand-alone games. Yes, three: StarCraft II Terrans: Wings of Liberty, StarCraft II Zerg: Heart of the Swarm, and StarCraft II Protoss: Legacy of the Void (in that order).

Blizzard claims  this is to introduce more depth into the stories of the series. Well, seeing what they’re doing with Northrend in WoW, I don’t doubt they’re capable - so long as Knaak doesn’t touch it. Still, it’s a bombshell for the SC fans, especially as this means they have to pay around $180 for the whole story. Let’s hope Blizz didn’t shoot themselves in the foot with this one.
