Forums - PC - StarCraft II Collector's Edition Detailed

Starcraft is arguably my favorite game of all time (Diablo 2 or FF6 are there as well) so i'll probably shell out the cash for the collectors edition.

Man i can't wait to play this.



Had to change my sig to get some moderator to quit bitching about it......

$99? That's a little steep for me, but it's freakin' Starcraft 2, I can round it up.

you do know your getting two games in this collection right?

What's the second game? Please don't say Brood Wars, because that barely counts for anythign since you can grab a copy from just about any bargain bin for about $5.

basically the entire first game with expansion, so yes i am going to say Brood Wars and where the heck do you shop to have bargain bin PC games?

Walmart still has the battle chest for $20

Some months ago I was in a Target, or some shop like that,  up in Connecticut and they didn't have the battle chest. However in their huge piles of shitty gamess like "Bass hunter," or whatever, and other such games they also had starcraft and brood wars.  So yeah sorry, your 2 games argument really fails miserably. I would also love for you to think just a little and realize just how many people already have Brood Wars, making this "extra game" absolutely worthless to theml.

I have a really good question for you. Going by all the posts I have ever seen, I have never seen you say one thing good about PC gaming or hardware or anything like that.  Are you anti-PC? Anti-PC Gaming?

the in-game stuff is tempting but everything else is lame. Who the heck doesnt already have the first SC?

Everyone has SC. But the USB functionality is pretty cool.

well looks like activision has adopted a price tag of 59.99 for their PC games. god i fucking hate them.

Blizzard games were allways more expensive than the rest, when Warcraft III released it also cost 59.99. So I wouldn't look for activision in that. Also buying Starcraft II means another 10 years of the best RTS action, so even if that game cost more than gaming console, people would still buy it.



MY HYPE LIST: 1) Gran Turismo 5; 2) Civilization V; 3) Starcraft II; 4) The Last Guardian; 5) Metal Gear Solid: Rising

just went down to eb to preorder mine, guys stop complaining about the price! here in australia it cost me 150 dollars!



that is an amazing collector's edition. If I had $100 I would've bought it already.

No, I think consoles games are dumbed down piles of shit when it comes to genres, specifically shooters are exceptionally horrible recently because of consoles. I just like to keep perspective on things, and calling a USB with Starcraft somehow a good deal, unless the USB was 16gigs so I could wipe it to reuse it, can hardly be called a "second game" worth anywhere near $50 considering everyone in the world already has SC who wants SC2 and that you can get the same deal for about $10 from stores.

Are you complaining that SC is $10 more expensive? Personally, I got easily 20x more playability from SC, than from any other one-time purchase of it's time. The only other games I've played even close to as much were MMO's with monthly fees. SC is a bargain at $60, or even $100. I don't understand the logic that all games must be the same price. I could see if it was some 6 hour single player game, but this is SC! Outside of video games/movies people realize that a top tier item costs more... I don't see the issue.
