Making Asteroids, Final Fantasy and Metal Slug in Starcraft II.
Starcraft II looks to be an amazing game in its own right, but it's also an incredible tool for making your own games.
When Blizzard took to the stage last year to show off the game editor for Starcraft II they were sure to bring with them examples of some incredible mods they had already created in-house. Of course they knew that once gamers got their hands on the editor their own mods would be quickly out done. And they were right.
With retail release of Starcraft II less than a week away, here's a quick run down of some of our favorite mods already making the rounds.

The chicken or the egg came first? The answer is CHICKEN!
One of the greatest FAQs finally has the answer!
British researchers say the chicken must have come first as the formation of eggs is only possible thanks to a protein found in the chicken’s ovaries.
‘It had long been suspected that the egg came first but now we have the scientific proof that shows that in fact the chicken came first,’ said Dr Colin Freeman, from Sheffield University, who worked with counterparts at Warwick University.
‘The protein had been identified before and it was linked to egg formation but by examining it closely we have been able to see how it controls the process,’ he added.
The protein – called ovocledidin-17 (OC-17) – acts as a catalyst to speed up the development of the shell.
Scientists used a super computer called HECToR, based in Edinburgh, to ‘zoom in’ on the formation of an egg.
It showed OC-17 was crucial in kick-starting crystallisation – the early stages of forming a shell.
The protein coverts calcium carbonate into calcite crystals which makes up the egg shell, creating six grammes of shell every 24 hours.
Prof John Harding, also of Sheffield University, said the discovery could have other uses.
‘Understanding how chickens make shells is fascinating in itself but can also give clues towards designing new materials,’ he said.
