Is it just me or do some of the scenes in Starcraft 2 look like they’re right out of Avatar
That last screen shot looks identical to the big battle in Avatar, from the flying machines to the flying dinosaur beasts… gee I wonder if Blizzard are fans?
I have the game waiting for me at home… can’t wait to get off work and play it!
Oh god sc2 looks awesome

Actually, Blizzard designed those vehicles/units/map designs before avatar was even released. Some of the units depicted in the screenshot (such as the mutalisks, dropships, marines, etc) are from the original, 12 year old game. I believe that the similarities between Avatar and SC2 are coincidence.
or was it like the avatar, gave a preview/sneak peek at the new sc2 game…
banshee design is very practical though seen it on starship troopers.
Any suggestions for alternate download locations? Blizzard Downloader is too slow.
