Just another rumor:

http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=39724

[...]We left the best thing for the last. Traditionally, Blizzard was always announcing titles years before they will come to life. My first touch with World of WarCraft happened on ECTS in 2001, first touch with Diablo II and its add-on came during E3 and ECTS 2000 and so on. But now, StarCraft II is not being announced year or two prior to release. Blizzard has stated that the company will release this game in October of this year.

So, you can mark your calendars ready, Q4 of this year will be quite an interesting one.[...]

I'm guessing end of 2007 (christmas release) or early 2008.

Who knows how long they've been working on this game for? I remember back in Blizzcon, Nada, Ra, Leg, Yellow, Reach, etc all getting a tour of Blizzard headquarters and not being allowed into a room titled "top secret". They've probably been working on it for a while; > year, and have been planning for a couple.

What we see is alpha, and we all remember the crude alpha screenshots of Starcraft 1 (lol), but times have definately changed in terms of technology and such. I think they could have this thing up and running pretty quick (when compared to previous game titles). Not to mention they have the magic of patches!

I don't think there's ANY chance it will be out before q3 2008
it could also easily drag on to q1/q2 2009

Well it would be nice if it was true since that's my birthday. But I guess it'll take about 8-10months or more.

Now that I read the entire thread, I'm not so sure - I COULD be wrong, maybe much more of it is finished than what they're willing to show us

They said it wont be out this year as they expect in an interview with the NYT.
