This 10 year old RTS game is so old yet so fun. I wonder how many other people out there on this forum still play this game.

By play I mean 1v1 or 2v2, its the real "test" of the game is play low money maps. None of that fastest nr 30 minutes or UMS.

Starcraft also has a pro gaming community and I was just wondering how many people kept up with it.

If any of you guys play, on iccup (ladder server) or battle.net, feel free to post here and we'll see if we can get a game going.

cheers!

isnt it older than 10 yrs? maybe 15(1995) if i recall

i knew a guy top of the ladder, but his downside was when he was losing, he'd quit the game immediately. As opposed to players such as ~slayers~- boxer however you spell it, would fight to the very end.

i don't play anymore, but i still like to watch matches between progamers and seeing their macro and micro.
ie: i watched the live stream of the OSL final last weekend, winner walked away with 40K US.
theres also the MSL final this weekend, Flash(best korean terran) vs Jaedong(best korean zerg, winner of 2009 WCG).

some games have english commentaries, mainly the important ones. Go to this site www.sc2gg.com and click on one of the commentators on the side, it'll take you to their youtube channel.

EDIT: Apparently this store "G2buy" sells legit cdkeys for a pretty good price.

Yup! I've bought a Warcraft 3 CD-key and just bought the Starcraft + Add-on key. They send it over e-mail and you activate it on the battle.net website and download the game from there! Works like a charm!

They're like $3 bucks each

Do I really need to download the game. I have the original game disc. Can't I just punch in the key from then?

hey guys. theres finally a release date for starcraft 2. MAY 31 2010. best buy has a promo already with 5 dollar gift cards with every preorder. but the gift card will be given only when you recieve the game and pay in full. i wonder if there will be other sc2 preorder offers as well.

theres no way the release date is that soon considering closed/open beta did not even happen yet.

I remember when you could preorder it on Futureshop with a Aug 2008 release date.

In ActivisionBlizzard's filing last August, they said SC2 is delayed and to be released in the first half of 2010. The last time I checked was 2-3 days ago and there were no new filings regarding anymore delay. I suppose everything is on schedule.
