Pre-order   Ships 7/27/2010 (http://www.gamestop.com/browse/search.aspx?N=0&Ntk=TitleKeyword&Ntx=mode+matchallpartial&Ntt=starcraft#)

That would make it July, not June.

I've seen the "official release date" pushed back months on every single blizzard release in the past 13 years.  So take their release dates with a grain of salt. ;]

i dont think that the ladders will be keept like that .. also when you pay for the final game you will receive a key and you will use that key to play on bnet aannnd if that's so..

that means you will play again from the start like all the beta testers

i think the SC2 beta test will became just like a WOW trial .. having an expiration date. Ofc what i say its only speculations but i'm pretty sure beta test ladders will come to an end somehow when the game will be released.

so agree there. I get the feeling that they'll actually delay it again until almost christmas.
