sc2 is more like a competitive gaming format like css or halo in fps, maybe not the most enjoyable for casual gamers. I have heard blizzard put a lot of time to single player, but I believe other games may have deeper stories. Empire total war is like the MW2 of RTS. If u wanna look for decent single player fun then don't go sc2. Many hardcore esport amateurs like me, however love the competitive format due to the fact that we are smart and suck in real sports :D:D

Blizzard sent everybody who was already into the beta a key for a friend. If anybody doesn't have anyone to give it to, I would greatly appreciate it :)

Protoss Vs. Terran

I just played a round online...those Colossus ... frigging own ground units...I sent about 20 templar and 4 Colossus up front, then back doored this guy with 12 carriers, The game is pretty pretty visually, had it cranked to Ultra settings with 1920x1080, no eyefinity support yet unfortunately. Was getting about 74 FPS steady with my setup to the left...but I get the feeling as long as you have a 5850 or newer you'll be able to handle this game no problem with high settings....

its a hardcore RTS, so u must dedicate a lot of skill and time into it. 15 minutes of pro level RTS is extremely stressful beware u must have pretty good endurance.
