I just had to get down on this... in addition to showing CGI cutscenes at gaming conventions, Blizzard has given the community a little treat: a 6 minute gameplay video of their upcoming real-time strategy game, Starcraft II.
Wired got it out today, and I've embedded it here for all you happy gaming Orblers:
The video failed to excite me; sadly, it made the game look a little too much like the first game, even down to the sound effects. And, with the news that Blizzard is going to sell three standalone games, one for the Terrans, Zerg and Protoss, it feels like they're cashing in on old milk crates.
Still, the game isn't really for you and I; no, it's for the bloodthirsty fans in Korea, where playing Starcraft is a national sport.
Yes, it is.
In fact, Starcraft is SO popular in Korea, that Korean comedians can, apparently, make a career out of doing Starcraft imitations:
That's too weird - I just watched the entire thing. In addition to not understanding what he said, I can't believe the cute girls in the audience cracking up, slaying them with his wriggling and moaning. Could I have the same sexual success here in Australia, doing the same gig? Are Australian women ready to drop their skirts as I pretend to be Zerglings and Zealots?
