Here are some high res screenies for it that u can sue for wallpaper:

How many times have we been lured into the lie that Starcraft 2 would be released soon only to have it pushed back another decade? :smiley:

I’m pumped! I still play the first Starcraft!

After playing competitive starcraft for 4 years on and off, I am very sad to see sc2 come out. I tested it for one month…big yawns. Game mechanics are terrible.

Actually about 5 months ago, I was at a crossroads. Upgrade my comp for sc2 or put that money into a new hobby…lol you can guess what decision I chose based on this website..

wow, I didn’t expect that before xma$. and in the middle of my exam session, too. guess it will have to wait, but then we’ve waited 12 years for it anyway so what’s a couple of weeks… sigh it’s a pity I don’t have time to really get into it, but it’s an RTS so I’d have to practice builds for weeks to keep up with a very good friend of mine (who is korean and therefore doesn’t need to practice starcraft).

the only game that probably will get my undivided attention is hl2ep3/portal2.

well if u have at least the latest macbook (the one with the nvidia 320m) u should be able to run it. even the last generation macbook and 13 inch mbp with the 9400 can run it

here is a vid of the beta with the last gen 13 in mbp (i commented with my 2 cents, i am gpowsang)

here is one with an '07 macbook

lol have you ever played sc on a mac? The hotkeys don’t translate at all. My apm (actions per minute) would drop to like 50 from 200 where I last left off. My sc days are over. I can’t practice builds and timing for 12 hours a day anymore, too much of a waste of time. Not to mention sc2 has no attack move, less high ground advantage, and overpowered mid-tier units…etc.. I can go on for hours but I will stop now :slight_smile:

Thanks for the effort finding all that stuff though.

huh which sc2 were you playing LOL :stuck_out_tongue: it has everything you said it doesn’t now lol anyways its fun way to kill time but i wouldnt play it to play competitive, maybe a game here or there every now and then when im sick of music hunting haha

Loved the first one!

We used to play on our companies network across the country…battling our other branches!

The Brood War expansion pack was a must tho!

Protoss FTW!!

:slight_smile:

starcraft is more addictive than crack.

Yeah all the nubs loved protoss :stuck_out_tongue:

You noobs and your carriers are no match for my zerg!

u must have never played a real toss player if they always went for carriers…

i’m still waiting for Dungeon Keeper 3 :disappointed: lol

saw stuff on this a couple of years back, then stopped following the updates for some reason.

might look into.

No I know. Protess could tear shit up. I was just referencing the fact that a lot of noobs (myself included) relied heavily on carriers back in the day!

it was all about terran battle cruisers with a few cloaked wraiths flanking them, coupled with a pure ghost ground assualt with 5 or 6 nuke silos on stand by

Oh yeah well my first priority was always build as many missile turrets (I can’t remember what they’re called right now). Rendering your cloaking devices useless!

How bout an epic DJTT Starcraft match!?!?!?

Correction…your Zerg RUSH!!
Without that…you level again.

Yes…the lurkers are badass…but so are the arbiters…

Damn…its been more than 10 years…and I can still remember the things names!

:slight_smile:

There was this guy that played with us…he was the only one who would ever play Terran.

But he would FUCK us up!!..not always…but gave a good go!

Them Ghosts!!

I played the beta for a time.

And let me tell you, there is NO learning curve for terran.

I played them and after a few matches i was WHOPIN’ MAJOR ASS.

If it was a long match, I would have mad defenses and attack with some 20 battlecruisers.

If it was short I would Destroy with marines and tanks.

If it was medium THORS ALL THE WAY!

I’d have to find the CD and install it, but… you’re on! :smiley:

I actually think I have it installed on my laptop from a while ago still… My skillz would be a bit rusty…

Let’s do it!
