Meh.

I'm done with them as well, technically. I'm not going to buy one of their games before its even released ever again. But I'm also not going to ignore a really good game based on the stamp in the bottom right corner on the box. I'll wait for reviews and the game to gain a little community before forking over $60 to them.

Blizzard's StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm launch was flawless. It's hard to imagine a rollout going any smoother.

My problem with StarCraft 2 is that I basically played it with worse graphics 10 years ago and it should have been 1 game instead of 3.

It's a completely different game than StarCraft. It's really a pretty different game than StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty.

Different than SC? What??????

Its the same thing with prettier graphics.

HotS and WoL are different because you paid $40 for the next campaign and updates that usually come as patches.

Are Diablo 3 and Diablo 2 the same game? Are Skyrim and Morrowind or Oblivion the same game?

Independent of whether you pay for them or they come in patches, the changes from WoL to HotS dramatically changed the gameplay. It's not as big a difference as the change from SC:BW to SC2:WoL, but it's a pretty big difference. Not only are there new units, but many of the old units underwent fundamental attribute changes.

They aren't continuations like Mass Effect, but set in the same "universe."

Main difference between Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 is that Diablo 2 was awesome, and Diable 3 was an overrated piece of shit.

The single player campaigns of StarCraft2 are a continuation of those in the original StarCraft in a way that is similar to the continuation of the story from Oblivion to Skyrim except that StarCraft continues the story with the same main characters. It's unlike Mass Effect in that there is no connection between actions in SC1 and consequences in SC2. There is a significant difference in gameplay though and (more importantly, IMO) in multiplayer.

LOL! No they aren't. They are similar in many ways. The one thing that separates them is that Diablo 3 is a gigantic pos that evolves around a AH and destroys everything about that genre of game.

I've watched professional players compete in HotS and guess what it was? Zergling rushes and Obelisks or w/e the **** those things are called, been a long time, vs Siege tanks and marine drops... OH THE CHANGE!

They've changed the names of some units and redesigned their looks, whooptydoo, and there were like 2 new units I can't compare to something from SC1 on Protoss. Amazing!

$40 for 20 new campaign maps. Sorry... not worth it. Should have been 1 game. But that's Activision for ya.

My mom thinks that all of these units look the same too. You two should lunch together.

Huh? That's crazy talk. You can spin and pan and zoom the camera any way you want.

Freaking Dark Souls. That big knight in the Undead Burg killed me. I dropped him with the parry animation finisher and i was like, "Woooo! Yeah!" Then he got back up and skewered me. WTF?
