Well considering starcraft II was one of the best, no doubt.

From a pure cinematic perspective that's still pants jizzlingly good :p

I was gonna say, Starcraft 2 is a game that just keeps on giving.

As for the cinematic. Nom. Pew pew.

lol what kind of nub lands 1 viking in front of an ultra
lol i was thinking that. my answer was the same kind that has an ultra chasing an arclight siege tank down a street and then gets to a line of tanks in siege mode and doesn't have a million marines in front of them with medivacs hovering overhead :)

Why can't they make a full feature film of Starcraft :(

Not the same but there's a World of Warcraft film coming out at some point; being directed by Duncan Jones (David Bowies son) who directed iirc Moon and Source Code.

So there's hope for the future after thats out of the way anyway ;)

I've been playing a lot of HotS and it's starting to look pretty good now. Earlier in the beta a bunch of the units seemed to be designed really poorly but all the worst parts have been fixed or removed by now. I'm still a bit unsure about the role of the oracle and I think the balance is still a way off (swarm hosts seem imba in zvp to me and hellbat drops are currently a complete joke) but I'm not so worried about that because they will obviously keep tweaking it after release. I think overall it's going to be a nice improvement on WoL because they've addressed some of the design issues that made some matchups in WoL uninteresting. For example protoss now has a way of dealing with broodlord infestor that doesn't rely on 1 unit casting 1 spell. Protoss can actually move out of their base without it being an all in now too because of recall. Also infestors overall are less dominant and zerg has been given a few new options so they don't have to rely on them so much. It also looks like blizzard is putting a lot of effort into making mech viable in TvP which will be cool imo.

The battlenet changes are good too. I can't believe it's taken them this long to implement a clans system and it's still a worthless buggy piece of shit at the moment but at least it actually exists now. They've said they are going to change the ladder map pool more regularly too which is awesome. I've played such a ridiculous number of games on maps like Daybreak and Ohana that it's not fun any more.

HotS beta is over :( Going back and playing WoL seems so dull now. Can't wait for release day.

Just pre-ordered it yesterday, splashed out on the colletors, really can't wait to see what happens with raynor and kerrigan :)

Wonder if Tychus is still alive, I know Raynor shot him or so the cutscene lead us to believe but you have to wonder if he's still around

Well, considering who he was "working" for i'd assume he's not. That armor he had wasn't just a prison, it was a walking death cell...

True enough, you didn't actually see him get shot tho which is why the mind boggles, the screen simply went to a different angle and you heard the shot, would be interesting if he were still alive

Anyone watch Ret vs Yoda today/yesterday? Ret got fucking steam rolled lol, quite funny considering just before the game started Ret said "Yea ofcourse I can win this" with a big grin on his face then got served so badly, first game was 1 sided.

Samsung KHAN RorO:
I would go to sleep at five and then wake up at seven and I got the thought that I hadn’t practiced enough to merit sleep.

Lol. Plays for 22 hours straight, clearly haven't practiced enough yet.
