GameStop gives StarCraft 2 a tentative release date

When the development of StarCraft 2 was announced last week, many thought the long wait was finally over. Unfortunately, we still have to wait for the video game's release on the shelves. GameStop seems to have an idea when we'll be seeing the sequel to the popular sci-fi strategy title.

GameStop has it listed under a pre-release shipping date of 10/1/08 at a retail price of US$ 49.99. That's right, October 1, 2008. That's about 18 months more of waiting.
