It's almost time for Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm!!

Phew! It's been a busy month for games, and there's only more to come in March. Speaking of this, I just wanted to stop by and mention a little about the game that I am looking forward to most at the moment: Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm.

If you've read my previous post about Sarah Kerrigan, you understand exactly why I have so much anticipation for this next expansion of the Starcraft universe. This game will be completely focused around Kerrigan, much like the Zerg campaigns from Starcraft and Broodwar. However, this installment is especially exciting because of the manner in which the previous expansion ended. WARNING, SPOILERS AHEAD!! James Raynor, the primary character for the Terran campaigns in Starcraft, finds a Protoss relic that turns Kerrigan mostly human at the end of Wings of Liberty. But from the trailer for HotS, it is implied that Kerrigan still has a connection to the Zerg. Not only that, in the newest trailer, she is seen as the Queen of Blades again. Could these be flashbacks? Or does Kerrigan purposely find a way to turn herself back to her insect-like form
? What will happen between her and Raynor, as the trailer suggests that she essentially goes rogue? So many questions! Almost a week to wait, and as a big Zerg fan, I have been waiting for this campaign since I heard Starcraft 2 was being made! Anyhow, I'll leave you with the most recent trailer and let you decide for yourself. Expect a review as soon as I play through it!



And P.S. don't worry, I haven't forgotten about Dead Space 3 or Aliens: Colonial Marines. I will get to those reviews soon! Well, once I can make myself get through Colonial Marines that is...
