Just like I can probably show you how to play TF2. It's like the only game I've played since 2007.

Blankey, you and I both.

I'm not very good, but it sure is fun.

Figures.. I get a constant "billing error" on the purchase screen. Nothing wrong with my finances, so I guess it's server overload time.

It's playing very well so far.. I'm only a short amount in, but it feels like an updated version of StarCraft I.. which is exactly what I was hoping. Don't mess too much with a good thing. I'm just getting to weapon upgrades, and you can hire mercenaries for in-battle perks. Seems like this is shaping up to be a really good sequel.

One minor qualm: it's 2010, and I think the cutscenes must've been programmed five years ago. I'm playing on a 27" screen, so maybe I'm nitpicking, but the cutscene graphics are not at a 2010 level.

That's unfortunate. I like a good cutscene.

Yeah, and Blizzard usually has the best cut scenes of anybody. I guess all their cut scene resources went into the endless WoW expansions.

The cutscenes, from a storyline perspective, are great. I guess they're not terrible, but I just got this computer and would love to see some heavy graphics in action.. the lines are sharper and the movement stiffer than what you should expect anymore.

So, stupid techno-question -- my computer has all the recommended stuff (except maybe CPU, see below) to play SC2 but instead of 2.6 Ghz it has only 2.0. Is that going to make playing this too painful to deal with?

My processor is an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU (whatever that means) and I have no idea how that compares to what they recommend.

Appreciate anyone's thoughts.

Try this site and see if you at least the minimum requirements (try running it in IE if it doesn't work in Firefox)
http://systemrequirementslab.com/cyri

I have a crappy old Nvidia 6800 and 1 gig of RAM so I have to run it at low settings, but it's still really fun. Can't wait to upgrade my PC though.

Your processor should be fine.

I might have to download this to check it out. Was never a huge fan of SC. I'm not really into twitch-RTS.
