When was Warhammer 40k made?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warhammer_40000
While I know Wikipedia isn't the best source to quote, it's fairly accurate on most things.
Warhammer 40,000 was first published in 1987 and evolved pretty quickly afterwards.
The first mention of the alien lifeforms known as the Tyranids (what the zerg are "based on") was in 1990, earning their own full-fledged Codex (army rulebook) in 1993, which predates Starcraft planning development stages by 2 years and Starcraft release by 5 years.

Either way, it's not even on the same level as the people in the OP. Blizzard hasn't used the same sprites and shit.
True enough.
