It came to me as a huge bewilderment as to why a simple and obvious thread like this where a guy came up and ask for an honest opinion whether he should buy the game or not, could rack up to 7 pages of blatant hype of over-zealousness of what is worthy, pirating, beta testing shait and whatnot. I mean, c'mon guys, let's not blow this out of proportion will ya? Jeez ...

lol...so actual conclusion of the thread
if u like RTS, fan of SC, have decent internet connection, and feel that RM220 for the game is worth the price, get it.
If you are unsure, get someone who have a trial key to give u a 7 hour trial, and decide for it

QUOTE(Mgsrulz @ Aug 4 2010, 04:23 PM) 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 Don't worry about that, you'll be reminded during the installation process and by reading the manual.

Flames and personal attacks though are a different story.

Hmmm, i do like RTS, but my last RTS is C&C Generals. Not sure about the story in this game can get my interest too and for sure no way I want to pay RM200++ for now without knowing whether my LAPTOP can support or not :/ Oh well.....

So yeah. on the bright side...at least GMA can install it..  i guess in this matter...anything but intel HD/GMA can handle all low with at least proper framerate, since the game is made to be scalable...but to be safe, i think u better let us know what graphic card your laptop is using This post has been edited by BBXiong: Aug 4 2010, 05:46 PM
