Speculation regarding the Release Date

[sysrpl]

I guarantee StarCraft II will be released by at least the Tuesday before July 1. This year that will be June 29. Blizzard loves to hit a release date right before the big July 4 weekend.

Look at their release history:

Warcraft 3 - released on July 3, 2002
Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne - released on on July 1, 2003

Diablo 2 - released on June 29, 2000
Diablo II: Lord of Destruction - released on June 29, 2001

Just to let you know, there is a chance of it being released later than that. There is no absolute guarantee.

If StarCraft II is released after that date I will buy your copy for you.

Blizzard already said they are releasing two titles this year (SC2 and the WoW expansion), which they've said will be a first for them.

SC2 will be their summer/July 4 product. The WoW expansion their winter/christmas product.

You really don't have to do that, Ive saved up money for it this entire year.

Its logical to assume such things, but things like this gets on my nerves when no one actually states it. Know what I mean?

Whatever the date would be I will still be buying this game, even if it takes another year.
But I hope it will be earlier.
BTW
How much do you think it will cost?

$49.99 or $59.99, whichever is the normal cap for PC game prices at the time.

Is there a collectors edition? (IE helmet/gun/massively ridiculous thor)

There is no knowledge about what the release date is, srsrpl is working off pure speculation until Blizzard announces it themselves. It's important to realize that SC2 is an anomaly and therefore trying to judge off previous schedules will not work in this instance.

I also changed the title to be more accurate.

LOL, how about a classic gauss rifle?

They haven't announced yet, but they will definetly release one. We'll probably get details when they'll announce the release date.
