They need to switch it up...post a blatantly obvious prank announcement but then actually follow through with it. Gotta keep people guessing.

Lol Starcraft Ghost was sposed to be a 360 game if i remember right? lol i really wanted that game back in the day. :( damn blizzard for dropping it

I mostly play RTS and Moba style games now adays as well as ALOT of benchmarking. I do play other games however such as the witcher 3 and Crysis 3, and recently Ashes of the Singularity. I love gaming on the cutting edge and refuse to accept any compromises. Proud member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race. Long Live SHIO!!!!

A joke for April 1st?

How about a stand-alone Starcraft II game, that lets you play all the races in single-player mode - and LAN multiplayer games.

Now that would be a joke, how ridiculous! ;)

They've already done a WoW Console joke, they did that last year, keep up with things people! lol

http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/moltencore/

And @ Sqrl, they already did that a couple of years ago with WarCraft 3:

A new hero class was announced on March 31st 1 minute before midnight with no date posted so everyone saw it on April 1st, and that was the announcement of the Goblin Tinker. Everyone assumed it was a joke, and tons of people made custom models of it for download assuming we'd never see the real thing. What do you know, a month later a patch comes out that adds the Goblin Tinker as a neutral hero! Everyone was like "WTF!? LOL!"
