Starcraft: Ghost.

What's confusing about that? It releases June 10 across the nation, and June 14 across the nation. Duh.

starcraft ghost was officially canceled a few years back

so episode 3 is the only real piece of vapor ware as of right now.

It wasn't that he couldn't, it was more of a financial thing.

It is sort of amusing that to get a game out that was thought to be never coming and yet mentioned non-stop through all these years will be released and all it took was a new dev team. I wonder how the old guys at 3D realms truly feel about this.

Diablo 3 will come in time. Half Life Episode 3 hasn't been announced yet so it doesn't even count as vaporware. Starcraft: Ghost production was stopped so I guess that doesn't count either?

More than a bit of hype in Pitchford's statements, but I guess he's entitled after birthing the unbirthable. I'm in that First Access Club (ty Borderlands GOTY) so I'll get me chance to try out the Duke early. Should be a kick...

Was it? I know a lot of media sites (Gamespot, IGN, etc.) list it as cancelled, but I was under the impression that Blizzard still categorized it as "indefinitely postponed" or on "indefinite hold," without officially cancelling the project.
 
The actual full game is slated to hit store shelves on June 14, 2011 here in the States and June 10, 2011 nationwide (go figure).

A. Both statements means that duke will be released in the USA on both mentioned dates... wtf.

B. I assume by nationwide, you actually meant worldwide. In which case, Duke is coming out everywhere but the USA 4 days in advance? Does that mean as a Canadian when I prepurchase Duke on Steam, I will get it 4 days before those in the US?
