RTS is back...Screw EA. Starcraft 2 is near....

EA will eat it.
They ruined CnC with CnC4
Now, the real RTS is coming....yes...yes...
Starcraft 2...but screw Actvision as well
Starcraft 2...the sequel to the most hardcore multiplayer game of all time...HAHAHAHAHA

 

I been playing the beta a little more than usual now, 27th is very close.

 

I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I heard the campaign is freaking huge as well. Maybe finish it in the first week then multiplayer mayhem...

 

Terrans!

 

YESSS terrans rock!!! "you want a piece of me boy"?
THe terran Music is damn kick ass!!!

 

I was kinda against the idea of 3 seperate games for each race, but i keep hearing about this, and i think if they did combined them into one game, it would literally cut 2/3rd's of the game out now. I like the way they have gone with this. And I want.

 

10 years in the making, wow.

TERRANS PWN!

 

To be fair, the development only started in late 2003. However, it was delayed until 2005 due to World of Warcraft requiring extra manpower.( The Burning Crusade Expansion) So it's actually 5 years in the making. 100 million USD my friend.

 

Can't wait for this either, been playing the Beta like crazy lately as well. Going to the midnight release for sure.

 

Pre-Ordered anyone? If you did, you may get a free hat, poster, other stuff! (It depends on what store you get it from. Future Shop/Best Buy promoted it so you get a free hat, then they added a poster.

 

Has anyone seen the minimum system requirements? As always the case in a Blizzard's game, it's not too taxing.
But of course everyone wants to play it with the highest setting right?

Not too high.
Blizzard rocks!!!

 

Min is a nivida 6? damn, thats low. I would have thought that minium would have been a nivida 8.

The Hdd space sounds about right though.

 

That's low and that's why it is going to sell a lot. Blizzard games are like that.
PC games like Crysis didn't sell a lot due to high system requirements, but Blizzard games does not need to be multi-platform to be successful.
Also, at the highest setting (all ultra) Starcraft 2 looks very detailed. Better than other RTS in my opinion.
The animation is very fluid and very varied as well.
Even without AA.

 

GUYS! IT'S ALMOST HERE!!!!!!!

You can download it but it canonly be playable on the 27th. That's like an edge against the people that buy the retail box version!
