Tyranids aer in it?!? Dang, I hated the Zerg and that's pretty much what these guys are. "Let me swarm you before you've even loaded the map up"

The link I posted had a video of a tyranid swarm, which looks interesting.

I'm sure i'll get some backlash for this.. but... Starcraft II just don't look as atmospheric as DOW2.. The intro looked cool and dark, but then the battles were in sunny daylight. They should use weather like they did in COH to add that extra something that makes it seem grittier! I hope DOW2 has weather

Lol, you see one video and it's like "lol no atmosphere". I'll say this now - Starcraft 2's storyline will be in an entire different league to DOW's.

Warhammer has pretty strong lore
Starcraft has pretty strong lore
DOW II will be fun and cool
Starcraft will be fun and cool
Warhammer might be better than Starcraft
Starcraft might be better than DOW II
I will play DOW II and enjoy it
I will play Starcraft and enjoy it
All of the above is true
PC gaming is about to improve a lot
Lets move on.

Oh and..
Both trailers look excellent - but I suspect Starcraft will be much more micro than that trailer shows, and DOW II most likely will be a little bit more macro!

I just can't wait for DoW II, as I'm a huge fan of teh franchise, really enjoyed playing my way through the original + 3 expansions

The original story was great, but it's the only one i completed.
I really didn't like the Total War style "map" in Dark Crusade and Soulstorm, kinda preferred the "cutscenes and story progression" between each and every mission, not just between the odd key mission.

Havent played DOW2, but played Starcraft 2 in paris. Plays much the same as the original (i only played Terran, bro played Zerg). Obviously theres new units and stuff, but i know they cant mix it up too much, or face the wrath of the whole of Asia ;D

Starc II looks like it will have solid single player and fun multi with intelligent and intuitive AI.
DOW had great AI and fairly good single player but it was so fun and damn cool looking in multi. Both are great, and I'll enjoy each at no expense to the other!

Pretty cool trailer - reminds me a little of the new Warhammer Trailer with all the differnt classes laying the smackdown on each other.
I loved seeing the tyranid spawn rushing through the atmosphere - that fo sho was cool.
