Fark Blizzard and their excuses.

First they killed of LAN capabilities

Then they segmented SC2 into 3 CDs eventhough they are the same game.

It all goes down to money. Starcraft owed much of their success to KeSPA and now Blizzard wants to financially milk them off. Starcraft is a good game but without the oversensationalized hype in South Korea they would not be able to achieve the lsame evel of success as what they are now. Talk about gratitude. BOLLOCKS!

EULA? There are tons of video games tourney held each year without getting blackmailed for COPYRIGHT Infringement bullshyte from developers. CAPCOM's Street Fighter 4 tourneys were held in various countries, where their tourney videos were broadcast by SRK, Gootecks and Tougeki + thousands bloggers worldwide. Well correct me if I'm but I didn't recall CAPCOM asking them to pay any ransom for broadcasting rights? Same can be said for Tekken, FIFA and Counter Strike.

Yes, Blizzard are "legally" right to do so but ultimately it is greed that drives the action. Blizzard saw the scale of SC hype in Korea and immediately wanted to tap in the financial part of it.

Segmented games who cares? Mind you, i for one give a shyte about this move. Not to mention there were millions of gamers fuming about this typical Wall Street capitalism move.

People said if you hate it, don't buy it. Simple as that. Im glad i didnt. Saved me 200 bucks and hundreds of hours of life that I will never get back.
Fans of SC2 of course don't mind getting ripped by Blizzard as long as they enjoy the game.

I own a PS3 but i don't really buy all the games. I mostly play FPS shooters online like Modern Warfare 2 and KZ2. Thats mainly because I think their multiplayer features are worth the money...it's amazing how people lamented the fact gamers who play pirated games are GAYERS and all that but the fact is who wants to pay RM150 to play a video game knowing that u can play the same shit in your PC for RM5? Im not saying we should support piracy but this is just a irrefutable and undeniable fact of life. If there is a cheaper alternative to get the stuff you want, people will definitely take that route. NOt to mention the demographic of gamers are students and half broke college kids. You think all gamers have the financial horsepower of working class ppl? Buying Ori games doesnt make one feel superior than people who play pirated games.

Same concept, ask yourself if Activision launches Modern Warfare 2 in two seperate discs, a SWAT campaign and a terrorist campaign with same online multiplayer features, will you still buy it? for RM150 each?

I think the moot point of the discussion here is whether Blizzard should be crucified or be commended for taking legal actions against KeSPA. Not now venting frustrations at starcraft fans. take your little numpty arguments somewhere else and you don't own this thread. So don't act like a douche here telling people when to come in and out.

Fact up or shut up. SPM is aint over yet.

There you go. We do share the same view here. The only difference between you and me now is you supported the greed and i didn't. Fair enough.
KeSPA in fact is doing a Blizzard a good deed by keeping the world Starcraft community alive and kicking.

Remember, I don't chastise Starcraft 2 players but Blizzard. Hate it when people doesn't involved in a debate openly in a more mature way.
