    Should I buy Starcraft 2?

    The first thing you need to know about SC2 is the multiplayer. First is the ladder. It is competitive. You have to be fast *and* smart to do well. One or the other and you're just middle of the pack and stagnating. Of course, it's such a *large* pack that no matter how good or bad you are, you...

    Zero Punctuation: World of Warcraft: Cataclysm

    We can hope, but it's not very likely. As one of the few games with competitive multiplayer that isn't: A) Forcing you to depend on other people who could be idiots. B) Destined to become a wasteland a year after release. C) Imbalanced. D) Stuck with a poor quality or even random matching...

    Zero Punctuation: Halo: Reach

    So he's reviewed what, 2? 3? Halo games now? One of which was an RTS? An SC2 review is long overdue. SC2 fans certainly don't expect him to gush over it, we know what his reviews are like, but I do think he would actually appreciate the Galaxy Editor, seeing as it would not at all be hard to...

    On RTS Games

    The reason StarCraft II is the best game ever is because you could make that stuff in it. People have already made FPS mods of it, there's nothing at all standing in the way of making the exact game he described. In fact, someone dedicated to it could probably do it in a few weeks. Heck...

    Blizzard Unleashes Final, Jaw-Dropping StarCraft II Launch Trailer

    DOW2 is definitely primarily an RPG. You can do that in DOW2 as well. The fact that you only felt compelled to do this is evidence that Kotor was an RPG with better characters than DOW2, not that DOW2 was an RTS (or that you didn't care about winning as much in Kotor.) It is more like a squad...

    Blizzard Unleashes Final, Jaw-Dropping StarCraft II Launch Trailer

    The awesome parts are the CGI sequences. The very good parts are IN GAME ENGINE. That is what the characters will look like between missions as you walk around on the Hyperion. Proof: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT5DlDaWTXc Note that that's actually THREE YEAR OLD engine footage. To...

    Blizzard Unleashes Final, Jaw-Dropping StarCraft II Launch Trailer

    Absolutely fantastic. Showing actual game play would have ruined it, it's a trailer not a video demo. And to the people wanting plot spoilers? WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU! A good trailer entices you to watch *without* spoiling things. And for the record, about 80% of that is done with the game...
