I'm gonna buy SC2 this week, buying into the hype.. Usually I'm not really into Sci-fi type of RTS games although in the early days I played Dune and a lot of C&C, Red Alert, and even Warcraft.. I never really played the first SC (dunno why), so SC2 will be a new experience for me.. We'll see if it is as good as they say.. My favorite RTS game of all time is still CoH (Company of Heroes), which I still play a lot online with friends (mainly the Blitzkrieg mod)..

There are certain games where the hype is well deserved, Starcraft is one such game.

It doesnt do more than other RTS, it just does things really, and I need to emphasize REALLY well. Probably the most important aspect in a competitive RTS is diversity and balance, and no game does it as well as SC2 right now. Blizzard is just that good at RTS, as War3 and SC1 were on the same page.

Blizzard also does CGI and story very well, and lore, they just love lore, i remember reading about diablo 2 spells, and 1 comes to mind, the leap for the barb, and they made a whole background story how that leap was the result of the barbarians needing to fight VS phalynx formations... it may sound silly, but i see it as commitment and effort from the devs.

All to say, Blizzard (and Bioware) games are polished beyond what most other companies can promise...

Im more of a war3TFT player so still new at SC2 but loving the learning process.

It's improved a lot in recent years. The cinemas for Diablo 2 aren't very good if you go back and watch them now :)

Yeah, true enough I suppose. I guess I was speaking solely of Starcraft 1 and 2, and WoW.

So i finished campaign few days ago, it was very good. Fun missions, loved the inbetween missions at our ship, upgrading stuff etc.

The ending was kinda disappointing storywise, but i guess thats where they were going. Sucks even more, we have to wait for the next campaign :/

I love the unit voices.

"What happened to you commander? They got you push too many pencils."

I also love when some unit attacks the battlecruiser while you are elsewhere... abandon ship! or it's a trap for the merc version.

Lol yeah. That's why i will never bother much with MP. Sure i could get better, learning hotkeys and train, but i just don't feel like it.

Campaign and games vs AI are good enough for me ;p

Yeah but those dudes have played +5000 matches :P In that time you could learn some tricks too ;)

I tried my 2 first MP games yesterday. In the first one I got totally owned by some terran player... Next game was better it was more even and I actually won by using 2 broodlords and mutalisks. It was all in attack but thanks to changelings I knew where to attack first.

I also completed the campaign! It was pretty awesome but it also felt a bit buggy... or at least the achievements and money system was.

Finally got myself this fine, fine game. I'm about a third into the campaign, and so far I'm really enjoying it. I normally dislike RTS campaigns, but SC2 seems to be doing all the right things to keep me interested.

Campaign completed! aaaand achievements bugged AGAIN. So I have the brutal avatar but I didn't get those complete 5, 10... missions on brutal.

I have to say that the engine of destruction is probably the hardest mission in the campaign. There is just too much things to do at the same time. keep SCV's at safe, use them to repair, build attack forces, rush back to defend the base and so one. Game also had bug at the end of the mission. I heard nuke launch effect, the robot had lots of health and then I couldn't move or do anything :S after like 30 seconds the enemies destroyed my troops and mission over. RAGE QUIT!

I can't wait for the next expansion! Zerg campaign should be interesting!
