See, now you know how the others felt.

Although it's not a big deal, it still annoys people.

Cheese,

I retract my previous statement.

It is still a security risk not worth risking.

With all these arguments, I think it's appropriate to come to a conclusion that different people perceive private information in different manner.

For me & evo, having people know our real name is nothing while to some of you, it is something.

Just like Facebook where you still see someone with xXxUchihaSasukexXx while some with their real name. It's all a matter of how you set the line on how much you're willing to reveal to the outside world.

GG no re.

Well, I am using my real name for my nick here.

So it's nothing to me but something to you and him.

Either do what you preach or don't preach.

You could always publish in the next post or include it as your subnick or in any threads in the future.

Anyway, it ends. Either do it or don't.

Even a Google on my nick is sufficient to reveal all.

Good for you. Now, at least you are consistent in what you preach.

The Week in Review: Let's See Your ID

user posted image

QUOTE
Blizzard may have shrugged off coordinated community discontent in the past, but this week, we weren't talking about LAN support in Starcraft II. It was, instead, the MMO maker's decision to put everyone's real name on their forum messages.

Announced Tuesday, Blizzard's new policy would have displayed the real name of Battle.net account holders posting to the Starcraft forums and, soon, World of Warcraft would follow suit. An instant, constant, and overwhelming backlash forced Blizzard to capitulate by week's end. Swamped by waves of complaints about privacy and exposure, thousands made clear their vow to cancel their accounts rather than participate under these terms. And unlike disappointment in a game's features, or lack thereof, it was a threat with teeth.

Perhaps something must be done about the inevitable degradation and damage done by a community populated by those whose anonymity makes them impossible to be held accountable. But here Blizzard plainly picked the wrong fight. PC gamers, not to stereotype, but culturally speaking they don't usually sign whatever comes under the door without reading it. And hardcore video gamers by nature have flags up for any unilateral action by a publisher. So if the Internet is going to be made safe for polite people, maybe it should start somewhere other than video games. Yahoo! Sports' comments are unbearably ignorant. YouTube's should just be deactivated by default.

In this short-lived blowup, we may not have learned anything about what is a right, what is a privilege or what is a responsibility - such topics are almost beyond consensus and wouldn't be solved in four days anyway. What we did learn is that gaming communities do not have an impotent voice. And whether you agree, disagree or can't be bothered with what's going on, this week one told a publisher this subject was an absolute nonstarter, period. And got its way.

PC and console games are generally more expensive in Australia than here. Almost at all cases.

However, some PC hardware are cheaper in Australia than Malaysia, for eg. speakers (especially Logitech speakers)

Question:
Whats the difference between Sea Version with others?

From 1st post:

Q: Is Starcraft II region restricted?
A: Yes

Q: If i wanted to play sc2 with my american friends on US server and local buddies on SEA server, Do i have to buy 2 copies?
A: for the time being, yes. However blizzard has mentioned to allow cross region/servers playability few months down the road after release. Refer sources here and here.

You Can Download StarCraft II Now (You Just Can't Play It)

user posted image
QUOTE
Don't wait until launch date to download your digital copy of StarCraft II. Grab all seven highly anticipated gigabytes worth of Blizzard's sequel right now so you're ready to play on July 27. You don't even have to pay!

Blizzard is opening up digital purchasing for its long in the making sci-fi real-time strategy game in advance of StarCraft II's official launch. Simply head over to Battle.net, sign in, download and wait patiently. Then, on launch day, pay, activate and play.

If you're planning on buying a boxed copy, perhaps at some midnight sale, this is not the version you're looking for. Move along. If you're planning on not leaving the house and opting for a digital download of StarCraft II, this is probably a good idea.

The digital download version can be activated and played starting July 27 at 10:00 AM PDT.

Preload Starcraft 2 like Steam games.
