How old are you?
I'm 24 this year. I dont have problem buying Starcraft 2. I can buy 10 copies and give it to my friends and younger siblings.
But my point here is, not everyone are fortunate enough. I know some Korean professional Starcraft players that come from poor family.
GGplay for example(Daum OSL winner). He said in an interview, he often lose some of his game because he's too hungry. How do you expect ppl that come from poor family that cant buy food to pay for Starcraft 2 or DSL connection? The only way for them to play is Cyber Cafes(PC Bang).
The things is with some people, they don't care about others as long as the problem is not theirs. If you can play the game, it good enough. If others can't play; its their problem.
I'm sure those young people who live in poverty in Brazil play football without any extra equipment. Kaki ayam only.
One example is Ronaldo. He can't even afford to pay bus ticket to practice when he was young. Football, Bowling and Tennis; tell me which one has the most player base?
Ok i am not here to offend u or any others.... but i think there is problem here, if you are poor and you seriously want to have a thing arent you suppose to work hard to earn some money in order to do so and not crying out loud tat the thing is too expensive or something else... Games is not a must have in live.... the thing tat come first should be Food, Shelter and clothes... I'm 24 this year. I dont have problem buying Starcraft 2. I can buy 10 copies and give it to my friends and younger siblings.

If Game is more important than food.... then u might as well play game everyday and see where u get the money for food, electric and all those stuff out there. If you cant get the thing yourself then dont blaim anyone.
