The countdown on starcraft2.com supposedly has blue colored numbers appear every so often. I haven't actually seen starcraft2.com load yet, someone told me this. The seconds are code for Somebody called for an Exterminator?

I dont understand. Whats the part that is ridiculous?

Anywhoo, the reason why you cant see the page is because is getting horribly slammed, the countdown was for a game shown at the tokyo game show called Star Craft:Ghost, a console game where you play as a ghost unit in the star craft universe. No StarCraft 2.

I think you are kidding, but its just that its funny that 1 Blizzard would do this, and 2 someone spent the time to decode it. It does seem like the type of thing Blizzard would do.

Yah, I figured both sites were getting hammered. After reading the previous thread, I tried starcraft2.com, and then blizzard.com, I saw the countdown at blizzard.com.

Will Star Craft Ghost be a strategy game or an action game

"metal gear star craft" , posted Thu 19 Sep 22:57:

From what i got from the site it sounds like metal gear star craft (which sorta makes sense for being a ghost unit and all.)
Anyway in case the site is still hammered here is the official description:

In this 3D tactical-action console game set in the legendary StarCraft universe, players will take the role of Nova, a lethal Ghost operative trained in the arts of espionage and tactical combat.
As a Terran Ghost, Nova will employ an amazing array of physical and psionic abilities. Nova will also have access to a host of hi-tech weapons and vehicles, some of which will be familiar to players of StarCraft and Brood War.

Sounds good to me, and the screens dont look half bad. Here is a link to IGN, it shouldnt be locked: http://ps2.ign.com/articles/371/371543p1.html

Ahh he makes pretty nice illustrations. But i think its just a coincidence, looks like he made his own fan stories and characters based on the SC universe.

Tho the orange hair girl its pretty similar to the main character on ghost.

By the way the "somebody called an exterminator?" is a reference to what the ghost units say when you click on them.
