Ever wanted to make your own game? Try Starcraft 2!

Post by J T »

Apparently the Map Editor in Starcraft 2 is insanely awesome! Just quickly sample some of the gameplay footage in these different examples. You are able to use the Starcraft 2 map editor to create entirely different genres of games.

From what I've played of Starcraft 2 it feels like Starcraft 1. The level editor will be the only reason for me to get it if i do.

I'd say it plays more like a Warcraft 3 mod.

Too bad for LittleBigPlanet 2, I guess.

But can I make an FPS with it? If so, knocking off Starcraft Ghost.

Yes, yes you can. That's one of the first things people made with the Beta map editor.
