Along with my impressions three new missions from StarCraft II's campaign, the challenge mode, and an interview with lead producer Chris Sigaty, please enjoy the following two videos:

The first shows off a cutscene between Jim Raynor and the Dark Templar Zeratul.

The second shows some gameplay from the singleplayer campaign missions that I saw earlier this week.

Looks like Blizzard is using their own game engine for these cutscenes and not pre-rendering in Max since Raynor pops into frame a couple times during the first few camera cuts (cheating character position over shots)

As if the game needs hype.

Damn, I wanna play it already. Never got into the beta.

Now imagine, when Diablo 3 nears release we will have this all over again.

Oh the torture.

For the longest time, I'd convinced myself I wasn't going to get this game.

Various things, some of which boiled down to conflicting information and such like, others to my patience reserves having been drained after 10+ years of waiting (the Marines vs Zerg skit you got after completing WarCraft 3 on hard didn't help matters)

But after this video? And given the fact that StarCraft is probably my all time favourite single-player game? Dammit, I think... no, I KNOW I'm gonna cave in.

Curse my weakness...
