Doesn't the picture below look like the canceled X-Box game Starcraft: Ghost?

Well no, It's Starcraft 2 in third person action game mode.

Yep, Starcraft 2 has the capability for third-person action games, up and down arcade shooters, and editors that can craft crazy units like the Uberlisk.
The action game in the video didn't take them much longer than a few days.

Think of all the possibilities mapmakers can create with Starcraft 2. You can now actually make a third person action game(although you could do it in WC3) that will be much easier to integrate and much easier to control the unit (the guy in the video only used his keyboard, no mouse clicking!)
Not only that but the ability to make unique units like the Uberlisk.

Not only that but I discovered some cool stuff about the Bnet as well. The new Bnet will feature quite a few new things that will interest most avid players:

What do you think about Starcraft 2 now?
I believe the editor is amazing and the Bnet is looking pretty nice. I'm sure we all heard of the pricing for premium battle net maps, but who's to say that other freelance mapmakers won't make maps that will surpass the premium ones?

All in all this is pretty amazing stuff. ^^

>be faceless void >mfw I have no face

Blizzard gets full rights over any map made. If they want to make it a premium map, they can. Basically we can't choose for a map to stay free.

Zoan -- of course it isn't full understanding. You could ask "is the mechanism by which this counterexample blows up the ONLY mechanism possible for an initial configuration to blow up?"

Zoan -- Heinermann
Heinermann shouted: it also didn't solve that problem but hey as long as the investors are pleased
Constructing a counterexample is answering the question: "Is Navier Stokes well posed?" in the negative
