Blizzard's new game

[ReNo]

Even by your own admission its more than that - its got new units too I honestly just don't see why people would have a problem with a modern overhaul of the game. Do you really begrudge buying an update almost 10 years after the original game came out? It's like not buying new curtains because your 15 year old, moth-eaten, sun-faded ones still block line of sight to the outside world.

And seriously, do you think we can judge the entire game on screenshots and some trailers? It looks like an RTS with base building, unit construction, and rock-paper-scissors balancing. How unexpected? I can't help but feel you're jumping to conclusions a little early, perhaps due to the 'familiarity' of the HUD as much as anything else.

hey yeah! lets go buy the same game with new graphics. it'll be so worth it :roll:

yeah sadly this 'it doesn't matter we're lemmings who settle for anything' mentality of the audience is what drives the games industry into an uninspired mess that it is of today.

just like TF2 is removing grenades. BUT NO ONE CARES COS IT LOOKS CARTOONY AND COOL AND VALVE DID IT ! lol. and the press always takes such things as the next coming of jesus

[Sentura]

everything i say is my opinion

you don't have to take it personally or anything

i just say what impression the game made on me

of course i havent seen the game yet but from what ive read and seen, it does look like the old sc.

i dont mind if they would overhaul the whole game, but sell it as a new one? no thanks. i think the term for one of these is "money hog".

This coming from a die-hard capcom fan? I forgot that they are truly the last bastion of worthwhile sequels :roll:

[Sentura]

who cares who it's from either how

just because capcom doesnt make good sequels doesnt mean blizzard does

pfffft huge difference man.

Even it had nothing new it would still be a great updated game which is all I care about.

[leileilol]

woo so they made it 3d and put in some lighting. Still the same old zerg rush.

Thats what people want though, and what makes money. Really think games are made just for fun?

But lets not waste that thread with this old polemic, please.

I'm not impressed with the graphics. It looks outdated and too cartoony and the movement of the flying things is like welcome back to the 90's, no tilting, no nothing.

[Rick_D]

hah yeah very true - but I can imagine the amount of characters on screen has got to factor into how awe-inspiring the gfx are.

and lol @ all the hate, holy shit.

[FMPONE]

Its looking pretty mediocre graphically

hard to deny

But then again I never played Starcraft so I can't comment on anything BUT the graphics.

It just looks very bleh to me. I don't understand what the fuzz is about. You can see like two big units on screen since the camera is so close. It looks very weak compared to C&C3.
