Situation with Starcraft: Ghost?

[Puzzlemaker]

Hiya. I was just wondering... what is the situation for Starcraft: Ghost?

I downloaded a few gameplay videos... and they sucked. The movement was jerky and the models lacked detail. I heard that the project was given to another company called nihilistic or something like that.

How long ago was the exchange made? Have they made a lot of progress compared to how it used to look? Is it ever going to be released?

Thanks in advance!

SC:G was originally planned for all three current gen consoles (no PC) but the GC version got cut out.

Those questions you asked I'm not too sure but this link should help...

*edit: Victim's posted first...but different links still.

PC was never intended

I read in a swedish magazine that the original sneaking around idea was scrapped.

Instead, it's going to be something more like Battlefield in the starcraft universe. With more strategy. I wonder if it's still connected to the Starcraft storyline?

Personally, I wanna know where Starcraft 2 is

My only consolation is that Blizzard's not retarded enough to not be making Starcraft 2 in secret, so it's definitely being made.

That'd be nice.

And then one day they'd make the announcement that it'll be released in a month or two, and bombard us with screenshots and videos and maybe a demo.
It'd be all over every single website in existence.

Starcraft ghost?? The game is so old and forgotten by many non-blizzard fans, it really is a "ghost".

Yeah I forgot it existed for a year, I felt dirty...but then again, I was never to keen on the whole 3rd person idea of things. Then again, I would love to see the Starcraft universe from a different perspective, since I, and I'm sure most of you, used to play little games as a kid as you were an SCV/Zealot/Vulture...I'd hate to see what you did if you were a hydralisk.

SC isn't THAT old. o.o
But yeah, I have wanted to see SC from a different perspective for quite awhile.
Specifically as an FPS... the game would be 3 stories kind of like AvP2.

It'd be so awesome.

 

[CyberPitz]

yeah late 90's..that put me at 10-12 years old...

Was I just a VERY imaginative kid?!

I found starcraft in the 2001 and since them you know the rest

Sorry I was away, but heres the Sc:G story
Starcraft: Ghost has gone through some times,
Oringally Nihilistic was making it, then not doing a good enough job Blizzard took it away from them.
They gave it to Swingin Apes fall 2004 after they dropped Nihilistic from the project. Swingin Apes was basically redoing the entire game. They then acquired Swingin Apes at E3 2005. Some new videos at E3 of Swingin Apes work at the show of Multiplayer, and well that has been basically it.

Considering Blizzard delayed this project, kicked a company off this project, and acquired a company, we can only assume Blizzard wont let anything less than amazing quality(like the rest of their games).

I played SC:G at blizzcon (the mp) zerg vs. terran and it was extremely fun. Especially zerg rushes. I'll elaborate soon, but i'm fighting Ragnaros in another blizzard game
