This could be a good sign

GameFly has Starcraft: Ghost listed in “upcoming titles” including box art and a rating of M.

Blizzard Entertainment's StarCraft franchise comes to next gen consoles with the innovative StarCraft: Ghost. But instead of managing tactical units, in Starcraft: Ghost, you will control a futuristic, "Ghost" super-warrior.

I'm not getting my hopes up, Blizzard has been dragging their feet on this one. I think the entire gaming community is hoping that Blizzard is doing this to get the game “right”. Blizzard has a lot of story behind the Starcraft universe, and the ghost unit is one of the more exciting human military units from the strategy game, there is no reason that this game shouldn't be perfect. I'm still willing to give Blizzard the benefit of the doubt, but actual box art and a rating is a good sign.

Update: on a closer look it appears that the “M” rating is only on the box, and their database says “rating pending” (RP). Plus the GameCube version has different box art, different box rating, is listed as RP and releases TBD, and is being published directly by Blizzard instead of Vivendi like the PS2 version. All adding up to more waiting...
