i'm one of those that disliked SC1 (blame RA n CnC back then lol)...
its highly up to ur personal preferences actually...

give it a try at ur fren's or at cyber cafes...

Are you a fan of RTS? I guess only a guest account/ trial mode will help you answer the question. I believe most buyers of SC2 are fans of SC1 and would like to know the continuation of the storyline.

Anyway, JackAlvins, final warning to you. Another personal attack from you and you're going to get a vacation. evofantasy is discussing this in a polite and civil manner, please reciprocate that courtesy.

i played SC,but almost completely forgot the story,but still enjoyed SC2

so i guess if you have the slightest interest in RTS,you'll like SC2

you'll have to read up the propaganda (rofl) dominion website on sc2.com, and pay attention to the installation storyline to get an outline of starcraft storyline.
if you can do at least that, you will enjoy the single player campaign.

of course, general critic is the campaign/storyline is a little short/underwhelming/too stereotypical.

my take? yes, its probably true, however the feeling it gave me was epic enough. and thats that. GAR-field YEAHHHHHHH

u can always wiki up sc1 story again...
even if u like RTS, u might not like SC especially if u are from the RA/CnC camp of mass army...

there's a huge difference?
ah well,not an RTS junkie..i take whatever comes my way

well this game is definitely recommended for SC1 fans...
when the 1st gameplay vid is out, it was soooo boring...
but when u tried it on ur own...da feel is totally diff
and u can feel sc1 back...lolz

btw, i think da reason y the story is quite short maybe due to this is js the 1st chapter of a total 3 chapters in sc2...
meaning just 1/3 of a full SC2 storyline...

js my opinion though

still short man... NEEDS MOAR WARFIELD

Simple answer actually. If you wanna play, you gotta pay.

If you don't wanna play then you don't need to pay.

If you wanna give it a try, just get a guest pass from anyone who purchased the game. You can then make an informed decision whether to buy or not to.

I see 0.0 million on your link for MW2 PC, you quoted MW1 Wii sales, certainly reliable sales figures indeed.

BFBC2 sold 5 million by May

But we're talking PC sales figures here, and BFBC2 has been sitting above MW2 for the past 3 months in Steam's top sellers list...

well back then i hated the whole food population/ supply mechanic...
to me this is the biggest difference...

actually i think kotaku have a post that sums up the stuff that you need to know before playing starcraft II, u can just read it up here

oh shi-

lol.

btw, u can also find the SC1 storyline on the manual in the SC2 box...
it's more detail than the installation narration so i read that instead when installing & patching

lol my bad...
damn wii!!!!!

any other sources to keep track?
i always used vgchartz...

again, u gotta knw MW2 is a 10nov2009 game and BC2 is a 2march2010...
and again, not every1 use steam or buy from steam...

I did not. He did not. I did too. He did too.
Lighten up. You're not living up to your namesake.

Steam sales can be regarded as reliable PC sales figures, as digital downloads are nearly 50% of game sales.

You being coy with me here?

"dota fag" isn't exactly a compliment.

This isn't a shooting range for you. Keep in line, or I will keep you in line.

It isn't exactly an insult either. You're being overly sensitive.
