Default STARCRAFT 2 ANNOUNCED: World implodes.

Here's all you need to know for the biggest announcement of the year:

Designed to be the ultimate competitive real-time strategy game

As for initial StarCraft 2 impressions - the game looked very similar to SC1 - nearly identical user interface - graphic styles and unit proportions nearly the same - more flashy lighting effects but it seems like Blizzard didn't want to mess with SC's underlying formula very much. The screens they showed the video on didn't display the video very clearly, unfortunately, but the game still looked pretty with some nice animations.

Real-time screens (horrible, blurry IGN compression):

I don't like Diablo, but bring on Starcraft!

There's a 720P 20 minute gameplay movie on the official Starcraft website which introduces the new weaponry.
