Get ready for some action-packed StarCraft goodness. Yep, we're all hot under the collar already.
So what's hotter? The release of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, or the holiday release of Crysis 2? It's certainly a steamy year for PC gaming (Diablo III would make it phenomenal, but that's asking a lot), and the clip seen below just drives that point home.
This TV commercial actually aired on Thursday night during ABC's coverage of the NBA 2010 Finals. The whole thing is CGI-laden--it doesn't sport one frame of gameplay whatsoever. Guess all is forgiven, as the action-packed sequence just gets us all fired up for the July 27 release date.

Idk what you mean by:
But an RTS with overhead view and gunfights really shouldn't be rated less then teen or rated M, it makes sense to me. last time i checked the zerg didn't have a goo attack that melted ghosts clothes off.(in before someone mods that into the game)
Blizzard make amazing art-work with their games
Agreed, a movie, done right, would rock.
If it was ANY other game (especially those Rock Band/Guitar Hero games) I would completely agree with you. But its Starcraft... I mean.. common... its Starcraft. I can't resist that!
Wonder how bad Korea's GNP will be after SC2's release, lol.
Cheers!
PS: Raynor looks bad ass... It was him, right?
Why not, yanno, have a marine actually ripping through some zerg? Or vice versa? Throw some Protoss in there. Same with their Warcraft trailers. No one actually DOES anything. I dunno what action you guys are talking about, nothing is really happening. As far as we know, that pistol had blanks.
It also means the cinematics won't be gory at all, the story won't contain much in the way of adult fare, and with units like marines (that appear to have high blood pressure) mixed with big slashy sharp things on the Zerg, I don't see why the battlefield shouldn't be able to get ridiculously gory.
