I’ve been waiting years for a follow-up and according to gameplay videos, SC2 looks to extend on Warcraft III’s HUD style and add the Havok physics engine as well. Watch for many new units to be unveiled in the coming months. New footage of the Protoss indicate that each race will have some sort of super-weapon (Protoss Mothership! ) as well. I’ll leave it to the video clips to showoff all the cool stuff.
