I have a huge gaming backlog to get thru, so by the time I'll actually consider buying Starcraft 2, it's probably already been out for a few months.

So resisting this half-arsed temptation shouldn't be hard.

I already have the real beta. So why would I need the pirated? :P

I LOVE ICELAND!

Starcraft is clickcraft. They could reduce half the clicks with some decent economy management and computer micro a. i. and templates. They instead decided to focus on a steam like upgrade to battlenet.

Starcraft is pretty much my favourite game of all time. So yes I wont play the pirated beta because I want to play the final version in all its glory. Not some unfinished, not completely tested version.

Oh man... I'm gonna have to download it now! Best RTS EVER!

But I will surely buy a original copy when it's out, but I can't wait to have a taste of it!

I'd like to play it sooner rather than later, but I have better things to do at present than play a pirated, incomplete version of the game.

Where is the I sold my beta code for 300 dollars on ebay option? That and my Blizzcon mount for WoW got me almost 500 dollars total. I love Blizzcon swag. :)

Or in the least, the Starcraft II isnt on my radar whatsoever option. :P

More power to you guys, but Command and Conquer has my heart from that era.

I own all three current consoles and a great gaming rig, now thats out of the way.

"Why post something like this when all it will get is PS3 owners blinded to reality replying? BOTH THE PS3 AND BLUE-RAY WILL NOT LAST 3 YEARS! TECHNOLOGY CHANGED TOO FAST!"

"is it Wii FIt that has sold as many as PS3's sold? Thats a LOL Look at the total sales of software is it just me that sees Nintendo titles hitting 10m+ and you say they arent making a difference? Another LOL!"

"Hell, with all the negative hype Sony spin, people just aren't interested cost is too high and to get the true HD experience (1080p, 7.1 surround) you will need a $1000+ system. THAT IS GOING TO DO IT IN A RECESSION! PS4 will not happen"
