If you’re a StarCraft II fan, you know that the game is being released not in one whole pack, but in a base game and two expansion packs that will finally make a whole game. The first of these expansion packs got its first official launch trailer this week. The footage is absolutely incredible looking, and according to Blizzard is actual in-game cinematic cut scenes, which is really impressive. There is no set release date but based on hints from Blizzard themselves, it is likely to drop in April 2012.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Launch Trailer
I can’t decide if I’m looking forward to this or not. The gameplay looks incredible (as usual) and is absolutely stunning, but I’m just wondering if the series is a little old hat at this stage? I mean, there’s the die-hard fans of course that will defend it to the bitter end, but I’m not one of them and I’m wondering if any of you are in the same boat as me? Anyways, the game is released November 8 on 360, Playstation 3, PC and Wii with a separate edition slated for the 3DS at a later date.
