From the beginning I had my doubts about the February 28Th release date that Best Buy had posted.  First it was on a Saturday, and secondly no one else was confirming it.  Now Best Buy has updated their website with what seems to be a more legitimate release date of November 3rd, a normal Tuesday release.  While it really sucks that Blizzard is making us wait almost another year for its release, this does seem to be part of the standard Blizzard M.O.  Remember that Diablo 2 was supposed to be released in 1997 and it took them until the end of June 2000.  Also this release date is perfectly situated for the Christmas shopping season.  So maybe for Christmas this year we will all be hoping that Santa leaves us a shiny new copy of StarCraft II.

And yes there still is financing available for the game.
