Considering how much he probably plays it, I was expecting a better impersonation :D

Some people have far too much time on their hands (though part of me was impressed...).
There's now a gameplay video for Terran:

There's an EU version of the site?!
And would Blizz upload the vids that are already on the net faster? I've seen this one weeks ago (even if it was lower res).

Thanks for the tip about that movie aaelgr, looks great. The Terrans seem freakishly powerful and diverse.

The Terrans do look quite strong, but I wish they'd spoken more about the vehicles that countered the Thor (I can't remember the name). The ability to upgrade Battlecruisers separately looks good, as does the add-on that speeds up making units by doing them 2 at a time. Can the Siege Tank still shoot when in Tank mode? It didn't look like it when they appeared to take out the Reapers (The tank/aircraft unit. I don't know the names)
Still waiting for them to show us the Zerg...

Indeed, we Europeans play games too! Does the US version (or whatever one you use) have extra things on it? The video only went on the EU site today...

Well in SC1 Siege Tanks couldn't fire while on the move either... as none of the tanks stop until they're deployed you can't really know, but it's pretty safe to assume that they do still fire in Tank mode.

They fire... I've seen it somewhere...

Another question: Does anyone know how often they update their site with new units? just to know when to look

I think it used to be every Thursday night/Friday morning, but there's no update this week it seems.

There is no real schedule... but if you don't want the site to slow down your speed just go to blizzard.com, they post there too when they add something new to the site.

No he wasn't... it was a joke about hybrids that everyone misunderstood.

What he said can be understood in many ways, and there's no telling what was right or wrong since there hasn't been any update on the site yet.

Yeah, it really need to take into account gross overreactions and overanalysis at any word from fans...

Other companies do it as well.. but Blizzard has to do it or people would break in their offices and get the information first hand :D
