    don't buy the game.. it seriously, utterly, sucks. played it, beat it in a day, threw away the cd. hopefully starcraft 2 will be worth buying unlike this one.

    Whats the attraction to blizzard?

    I've had nothing but buggy games and crappy internet service from them. I played Diablo2 a lot (worlds all time most unbalanced game) and I actually counted the number of bnet outages in one month (24 out of 30 days). Now the one side says since it's a free service I shouldn't expect better, but I say if they want me to spend my hard earned money on their product then they need to make a better impression. Don't even get me started on the bugs in their games.

    I could care less about then suing the bnetd folks, that's just business as usual in America, however distributing a shoddy game(s) and tauting lousy service not to mention the complete lack of customer service is in my opinion not acceptable.

    I could write a book about the lousy communities their games create, with people stealing other peopls accounts, kids running around in games telling everyone to fuck off for no particular reason. The rampant pk'ing that goes on. The game hacks that blizzard never does anything about, the cheats etc.....

    Crap company, crap products bloated reputation. I can always tell when a game is gonna suck when the company promoting it uses CG animation trailers instead of in game footage.

    What, so it stopped sucking sometime in the last few weeks between when the closed the beta and when the game code was shipped?

    I mean it sucked last time /I/ played it, and even my hard core blizzard buddies agree.

    (I do mean HC though, as in waaaaay to big of fans of the company for sanities sake, really freaky line fans of Blizzard. They say it sucks.)

    You want a review of the game? Ok here you go;

    It Stinks. Period. Tada. End.

    Looks great though. :)

    Actualy it is like enjoyable for the first few days, but it has NO staying powering. Definatly NOT another StarCraft. Blizzard has limited the games playability to the point where they FORCE YOU to play Their Way.

    And it sucks. Period.
