Blizzard:

StarCraft: Ghost - Update
In order to meet our goals and deliver the outstanding gameplay experience our customers have come to expect from Blizzard products, we have decided to extend our StarCraft: Ghost development schedule through the end of 2003. That said, the Ghost development team remains hard at work, and we look forward to bringing you an outstanding tactical-action console game in 2004.

We firmly believe that this additional development time will prove invaluable, ensuring that the game will truly expand on the legendary gameplay experience found in the previous StarCraft titles. As with all Blizzard products, our goal is to make StarCraft: Ghost the best it can be, and we will not release the game until it’s ready.

This thread has been made to clear up some rumor. You may post the question and then post the answer so that other new bf members don't ask the same question. I'll start

This was grabbed directly from: Blizzard
Q: Is Starcraft: Ghost going to have online play?
A: Blizzard is striving hard to make Starcraft: Ghost have online play.

Q: What is StarCraft: Ghost?
A: StarCraft: Ghost is a tactical-action console game set in the StarCraft® universe.

Q: How will StarCraft: Ghost be different from other tactical-action console games?
A: StarCraft: Ghost will be different from other tactical-action games in many ways. Taking on the role of Nova, the game's elite Ghost operative hero, players will be able to:

  • Utilize a Wide Range of Elite Ghost Abilities
  • Outmaneuver your enemies at sonic speed
  • Infiltrate bases and sneak past guards using the cloak ability
  • Lock down vehicles and electronic devices to immobilize them
  • Engage in both face-to-face firefights and planet-scale warfare
    Leverage the Resources of an Entire Army
  • Call down massive Battlecruiser and Siege Tank strikes
  • Take control of familiar StarCraft vehicles
  • Wield a variety of familiar weapons, such as the Gauss Rifle and Perdition Flamethrower
  • Join your allies in battle and do your part to ensure mission success
    Experience the World of StarCraft in 3D
  • See the world of StarCraft on a personal level
  • Visit familiar planetary settings
  • Explore 3D environments designed for strategic interaction
  • Use the camera to find unique strategic possibilities
  • As Nova, players will be able to scale fences, hang from wires, climb poles and scale walls, and negotiate tightropes
    Unveil the Next Chapter in the StarCraft Saga
  • Experience story-driven missions complete with multiple plot twists
  • Play a crucial role in the rich StarCraft history
  • Engage in combat with a variety of fully rendered units from the StarCraft universe, including the Terran, Zerg, and Protoss

Q: Is this StarCraft II?
A: No.

Q: Will there be a StarCraft II? When?
A: Although we have not made any announcements and do not have a development or release timeline, we do fully intend to revisit the world of StarCraft on PC at some point in the future.

Q: Why is Blizzard Entertainment® entering the console arena?
A: We began our early development efforts in console gaming, and we have always been excited about returning to this arena. Additionally, we've wanted to revisit the StarCraft universe for some time. With StarCraft: Ghost, we are able to do both. Also, due to the game's control interface and tactical-action nature, developing this title for the next-generation console systems makes the most sense. In addition to expanding StarCraft's rich storyline, the game gives players a chance to experience the sci-fi universe from an all-new perspective.

Q: Does Blizzard plan to develop any other console games?
A: While we have not made any announcements, we are considering future console development plans.

Q: What is the relationship between Blizzard and Nihilistic Software, Inc.™?
A: Blizzard and Nihilistic are co-developing StarCraft: Ghost.

Q: Why did Blizzard choose Nihilistic as a development partner?
A: Nihilistic Software, Inc. is made up of a talented group of developers. We chose them because they share our vision and focus in developing games. Their team members have worked on several great titles, and we are very pleased to be expanding the StarCraft universe with them.

Q: What rating do you expect for StarCraft: Ghost?
A: We expect StarCraft: Ghost to receive a Teen rating from the ESRB.

Q: On what platforms will StarCraft: Ghost be available?
A: A: We are currently developing the game for PlayStation®2, Nintendo® GameCube™, and the Xbox™ video game system from Microsoft. Further details regarding platform/country specifics will be released in the months ahead.

Q: Will there be a PC and Mac version?
A: No. StarCraft: Ghost is only being developed for console systems.

Well, those are interesting videos. I will sticky this thread to allow other users to see these. There are also screenshots in the very same site, so if you wish, search for them. It's worth it

Anyone who finds a great, good, normal, mediocre, bad or even a 3 years old web video related to SC Ghost, do post it here.
