Starcraft 2 Delayed until 2010

It appears as if Blizzard is now delaying the release of Starcraft 2 due to battle.net not being complete and fully functional for what they actually want to accomplish with SC2. The game could be delayed all the way until May of next year. This obviously has something to do with the Cloud service and only being able to play the game's multiplayer online.

"Over the past couple of weeks, it has become clear that it will take longer than expected to prepare the new Battle.net for the launch of the game," said Blizzard in a statement." Added the company: "The upgraded Battle.net is an integral part of the StarCraft II experience and will be an essential part of all of our games moving forward. This extra development time will be critical to help us realize our vision for the service."

While affirming the game was planned for release by the end of 2009, Blizzard president Mike Morhaime said in May: "But as always, we won't release it until it meets our standards and the expectations of our players."
