Toitalbiscuit was streaming some matches yesterday (early beta access I guess?) and I had no idea what was going on.

I don't think I ever actually played any of 2. I was put off by it being split into 3 parts.

I played the first one for the campaign story and then some MP. But I generally preferred Age of Kings and, with a similarly Star Wars crazy friend, Star Wars Battlegrounds (which is Age of Kings reskinned into Star Wars).

You talking the original Starcraft? I played a lot of that, just none of the sequel set.

Yes the original. I pirated it at first (60+ small files to download over dial up :lol: ), but I ended up buying it because the illegal version didn't have the cutscenes.

yes, there's an early beta access.  It gives access to the first 3 solo missions, the prologue.

Ah, ok. He was doing MP only, though.

there's close to as many missions in one single campaign than in all of Starcraft.

Manged to squeeze just enogh time to play the first mission in the campaign.  I like the nice, smallish improvements.  Nothing that stands out on its own, nothing that makes you believe this is a totally new game, but just enough so that Starcraft 2 released in 2015 can compete with most of the newest RTS out there.
