Seems every 5 years I get a new game. Today was it, so I might not be around quite so much for the near future. Good gaming to all :)

Let me know how you like it. I really want to get it but can't bring myself to pay 60ish bucks for it... I'm cheap like that.

After first couple hours I'm not very impressed. Like Broodwars was a step up, this is another with some fancier bots to use. Some of the basic building techniques are simplified and some allow more complex orders more easily. I think their plan is to release each race as a paid-for add-on. The current release is terran only (for the campaign - all races available otherwise). I plan a more thorough review in a couple days.

Hey, thanks for the info. I hate it when they do that crap, if your going to make a game, then make me a game, not these "chapters". if i wanted that, i would read the book.

Be aware I'm not one to read manuals til I hit a big stumbling block, so there are likely much more accurate reviews available elsewhere. Turns out it's only the campaign that is terran only. All races are available to play otherwise. They have some new easy ways to hook up with buds online and get games going. Also a coop mode that's as easy or difficult as one might like. They reworked many of the hotkeys from the original, but have a "classic hotkeys" option I was happy to find. Still discovering new ways they've made giving multiple commands to units possible. Inequalities in attack/defense strengths vs diff units can be huge, making intel and/or group diversity very important. This coupled with a seemingly mandatory fast online gaming speed takes any micro-management out of my slower reaction possibilities.

I bought it and enjoy it so far. Seems like Warcraft 3 with better graphics, starcraft units, and better story lines. By the way, does anyone else have the game aside from 8th Fury and myself? I'd like to team up with anyone else that has it.
