what are those?

then how come in all the cinimatics for StarCraft, the Protoss look good, but in Ghost, the mats suck, they are like 1 tone, and their feet are huge... and the Dragoons are not even salvagable....

I never said anything like that, I just said that Blizzard games had always had a cartoonish look to them.

StarCraft used 8-bit color depth, for anyone that was wondering. I'll agree the WC has always looked cartoony, though. I disagree about Star Craft looking Chunky and misproportioned. I mean, just look at Kerrigan. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

There's brilliant models and levels being made. An example of 1337ness, if I do say so myself... but I wish I could be as good as that. I really do.

I dont really see what's not to like about it. Agreed, the dragoon looks like crap, but other than that, everything looks to me just like they did in Starcraft. Protoss have ALWAYS had somewaht-large feet, and according to the manual, they are like, 7-8 feet tall average, if I remember correctly. Not to mention, the shot you posted was of a new protoss unit that wasnt even in the game[edit: Starcraft, that is. it's obviously going to be in Ghost], so there might be a good reason for it having "large" feet, other than the fact that he's wearing bigass body armor.

About the marine bulkyness, it's not even a marine, it's a firebat. And if firebats can stand their ground against Hydralisks, they'd need really big, bulky armor. In the movie sequences in Starcraft, the marines looked about that size anyway, so I dont see what's wrong with it.

I'm not trying to argue or hijack the thread or anything, it just seems to me that your making unfair accusations.

I'm still not seeing what you're saying. I did a google image search for "starcraft protoss", and pretty much all of the non-ghost results look pretty much the same as the protoss in the ghost shots...

Templar didn't have beam swords on their hands.

And Dark Templar had cloaks.
