Blizzard game prices dont drop much.

If you want, wait another 4 years when all 3 are out and buy the trilogy.

Else, buy it now. LOl

Try the starter edition, you get to play terran all day... and have a good feel of the multiplayer.

SG itself not worth imo.

no point buying when wol when hots has out even though has discount, u wont be playing the wol imo, unless for the campaign only. so is also kinda waste of money imo.

I mean...HOTS is expansion pack of WOL, so u probably kenot play HOTS without WOL, juz like u kenot play frozen throne without reign of chaos,tat the way they make money...
so at the end u stil ned buy WOL...even u duwan to play...

But tat not confirm yet la...assume only...

HoTS is a expansion pack tho. Best to buy WoL now and play Campaign to familiarize yourself with the differences from SC1 first, then when HoTS come up, you have saved up money again to buy it and then can jump straight into the story sumore tongue.gif

Because if you don't, you need to buy WoL+HoTS together anyway. And then play both in order to understand the story.

Exactly what I'm saying. If you hold off for HotS, then you need to buy it together with WoL anyway in the end. Might as well get WoL first to understand basic mechanic changes from SC/BW, and the story. Also, instead of one shot strain your finance, you pay a bit for WoL, then in a month or two, pay a bit for HotS

Hi all, is there a way to get to play both NA and SEA servers without having to buy 2 discs?

Is there a package or bundle like that?

sc2 is not worth to buy if you are a beginner in starcraft. the game bcomes boring and frustrating very fast .after a while laddering becomes more like a chore than fun. try to spend your money elsewhere like torchlight 2 .
p/s im masters rank in sc2 and i felt bored too.

You need wings of liberty to play hots. I've got a PS3 and it's safely packed in its box. All due to this game.

No other game has that special tension with every match.
