Wow that was kick ass. Never knew watching a video game cud get so interesting, thanks to the awesome commentary.

 

 You just got infected by the S-virus, the next symptoms will be to move to South Korea, watch on-stage games while clapping with big plastic hands. Horrible death.

 

Doesn't seem that bad, right? haha

Looks Terrible like they have added spells and special buttons for EVERY unit.

I enjoyed the video. But these guys make the game look so professional that I almost don't feel like playing it. It's like "yeah, like I could ever do that".

Then again I never played Starcraft much online, more single-player. It probably had something to do with me getting my ass kicked everytime I tried online with my single-player strategy :P There's a bit of a steep learning curve to play this game online.

That's an ironicallly hilarious thing to say.

Point of fact:  There are many games called Football.  Including "Rugby Football"  "American Football" and "Canadian Football"

 

By calling "Assosiation League Soccer"  Football... YOU are making the same mistake he is by calling the United States "America".

So you need to decide... is it ok to call the USA "America" or is it wrong to call soccer "Football."

Well either that or be a hypocrit.

I'll await your response.

Odder here is that people want to call the USA the "United States", when that doesn't make sense - "The United States of America" literally means the states which make up the country called America. That's the name of the country! It can't be helped.

 

Do you know what is the name of the Continent that your country is? Yeah... The "United States of [X]" comes from the Continent, ok? Just saying...

BUT... could we STOP this Off-Topic discussion? Please?

 

---------------

 

That game was awesome, BUT I'm starting to think Terran are kinda of overpowered, like somebody pointed it out. But we could say, also, that the Zerg player got the wrong tech (Corruptor instead of Anti-Air) and let the Terran get ahead on the tech war.

I believe that Hydralisk still is a must-have with Zerg with the battle goes on.

Oh! And... What about making the new Infested Marines walk FASTER? ¬¬'

North America Sorry, I had to. And the entire, huge landmass in the Western Hemisphere is typically referred to as the 'America's'. This was done just over 100 years ago to avoid the ambiguity we're seeing now. It's generally accepted as two seperate continents now and the collective landmass is the America's.

Of course, if you're from a country that has yet to accept the notion that there are seven, or six counting 'Eurasia', continents (not likely as most of Western Europe does), then yes, the US is mistaken in using 'America'.

 

OT: Can't wait for this game. But, like NJ5, I'm left feeling completely inadequate after watching this. I did play the original a lot online, but I really should have played more variety of maps.

I hope your "OT" means "ON-topic", not "Off-topic". xD I always played more through LAN (bad, bad connection, but now it's kinda of ok).

Anyone wanna bet the next one is gonna be a zerg x protoss game?

'Bout the America stuff, I believe that by then (during colonization) there wasn't any difference betwen "north", "central" and "south", neither "latin" [X]. So... this whole differentiation wasn't relevant by the time the name of the country was choosed. Oh! And what 'bout that "America for americans?"

And also... we could always say that, if there're all those (north america, central america, south america, and the so called latin america), then the entire landmass is "America".

 

PS.: I'm sorry for continuing desvirtuating the thread even more.

Lol. I meant On topic

You're right. But there was ambiguity when anyone referenced the term 'America'. Because of that, the name has been defaulted to the US to avoid confusion. Again, this has been widely accepted and pretty much made convention. As a Canadian, I certainly see no issue in forfeiting the title of 'American'. Well, because I'm not.

Oh! And what 'bout that "America for americans?"

Huh? Sorry, I'm not following.

And also... we could always say that, if there're all those (north america, central america, south america, and the so called latin america), then the entire landmass is "America".

Well no, the entire landmass is referred to as the 'Americas'. Anyhow, it really is a fruitless thing to discuss as there is no clear correct answer. There is no set way to say what makes up a continent and we usually just accept what is the norm. As I said earlier, in modern times, there is no continent or landmass referred to as 'America' outside of the USA.

PS.: I'm sorry for continuing desvirtuating the thread even more.

Me too

 There're games that don't need to be reviewed, they're just THAT awesome. ;D

 

Now, go play SC unbeliever!
