Some say there will be a 4th race added to SC2 related to Infested Kerrigan or something. No official announcement has been made that says they won't.

What are your thoughts and opinions if they are adding a 4th race?

"Some say?" Nobody's saying that. There are only going to be 3 races. There may be a fourth faction in single-player or something, but that's not relevant to us.

Blizzard states that there are "three distinct races" or something along those lines, so it's assumed that they're staying with the same T/Z/P from SC1, although if you have an official source with details on a new race, please link me.

It's a rumor going around, I personally think they could do it to add something new to the StarCraft world. 4 races instead of 3 would be insane.

Assuming you mean the literal sense of the word "insane", which is to say "they'd have to be mentally unstable and clinically ill to consider doing this", I agree with you.

That rumor was going around BEFORE Blizzard made the announcement about SC2. The announcement that Blizzard made makes it clear that there will only be three playable races.

I could definitely see a 4th "semi-race" being in the game. For those who have played TFT, I mean like the Naga. Not a playable multiplayer race, but something which is basically a 4th faction for singleplayer. Xel'Naga or Hybrids, or something--not fleshed out/balanced.

It's clear that there is and there will be no 4th race.

Of course, there are always minor non-multiplayer races, but who cares about them? :S

I think this will undoubtedly be the case. I'd love some more plot with the xel'naga. And they clearly have the time for it.

Xel'Naga should play a more involved role in the campaigns, possibly with appearances and an army.
