New StarCraft II Single Player Screenshots

When making the latest addition to the Kalos’ Chronicles, our dear tech guru came across more than just technical specifications of graphics cards. There was also a host of never before seen screenshots from StarCraft II’s single player ‘mini-game’ that will take place between Terran missions.

AMD have obviously received a very good standing with Blizzard (more on that here), as they have published the document containing not only the graphics cards requirements, but also the first ever pictures from Hyperion’s own bar!

Jim Raynor is seen going there in the BlizzCon 2007 videos, but they never show the footage from the actual bar. Here we see Jim in the bar, looking for something large and obviously alcoholic, getting a visit from Tychus Findlay, and probably discuss something of importance. More after the jump.

Is Findlay looking for a drinking buddy, or to cheer Jim up?

Besides a few more single player shots, there are also a big bunch of graphs to describe how the technology behind StarCraft II works. While these graphs might be more advanced than most of us would understand, we can always enjoy ourselves with the actual screenshots. You can find all of the actual StarCraft II shots in Kalos’ latest Chronicle; StarCraft 2 Graphics Requirements Confirmed. If you want to look at the graphs and the actual technical documents, you can find them there as well.

So, for people who just skim through and don’t really read:


More. Pics. Here!

[QUOTE=Whiggles;5962]Actually, I think it’s probably a reference to Joeyray Hall, a veteran Blizzard developer who is in charge of editing and post-production of the cinematics. The opening movie for the original Starcraft also had a character called Joeyray in it.

Nice, I didn’t know this.  I too originally thought it had something to do with Raynor, but this makes more sense.

Blizzard’s usually pretty good with these name “easter eggs” (Max Schaefer - Schaefer’s Hammer, as an example).

Since I read that neon sign, I kept repeating the words “What you got for me out there, Joeyray?”, unable to remember where they came from… thanks!

BTW, so this is Jimmy?
