i know starcraft1 is one of the most played game on the world and its gameplay is burned into the brains of many people, but starcraft2 is starcraft2, not starcraft1. whats the point, honestly?

why not just release an update to starcraft1 for the new units?

i cant believe people are going to buy the SAME game again for 50-60 bucks just because it looks better.
i dont know, maybe we have different views on videogames, but if i buy a new game, i expect a new game inside
Oh I dont know, maybe to continue the story. OR, maybe, just maybe they want to continue their idea of what the Starcraft universe is, with current technology. As for it being the same game, I meant the same gameplay style. People would be furious if they completely changed the way the game plays. If they turned Starcraft into like a C&C clone or a WC3 clone people would be up in arms. You do understand that Starcraft is a pro sport in some countries right? They want to continue the Starcraft feel with a new story, a new shiny look, new graphics engine, new resolutions, new physics engine, new units, new multiplayer modes, better online capabilites, same massive battles, same fast paced action, same macro economics and control. A new game with with same rules. I don't see how that is so hard to understand.

Do you honestly think they would add in new units to a game that is 10 years old and plays in 640x480 resolution? I doubt some of these units would even be possible.
