yea your right... OMFGOOOCHILA, why, they should have done that to all the great games that ever came out, and they should do that to all the games that will come in the future, forget those who doesnt have money... WE WHO HAVE THE MONEY, HAVE THE CONTROL OVER POWER.

=\ i love sarcasm...

get over your self, think of those thousands of people taht are so looking forward to this game and wouldn't be able to play it because they dont have money, ex. 3rd world countries.

i dont care if i get a warning for flaming... you deserve worst, just because your just thinking selfishly about your self, rather than those others... if you dont like rude people, hide your self in your room, live and stay in your little world.

this is a great game, taht should be shared for all, rather than being created 1. to feed greed, and 2. for rich little rich whiners who cant live with the tought of people just dont think alike, because they don't have the same concept of life.

First of all, I don't think there is a very big market for computer games in third world countries. Not to be mean or anything but the poverty in these countries is so bad most people have trouble affording proper food and shelter. I highly doubt many people own a computer and for those that do I doubt it's for playing brand new video games.

Secondly, yes this is a great game and that would be great if it could be 'shared for all', but this isn't a perfect world and nice things cost money. If you want to play a great game you are going to have to pay to buy it. If you want to play on battle.net with all kinds of nice features and protection from cheating, again you may have to pay. If you prefer the developers just rush throught it and not take their time, sell the game for $10, and then provide a free battle.net that is unregulated and has few features just so 'everyone can play' then go find another game.

First of all, I let you know that I live in a third world country. I own a computer, a low speed internet connection, but yes, I'm not rich, if compared to most of you guys.

To pay or not to pay, I don't really care too much.
I'll just play it all I can, and find my own fun way with the game, ... yes, I'll use cheat code

Well, Modulus, I guess you won't find me at BN then.

...and... pardon me for my English, I can't afford an expensive English course class.

This is 2 am here, time to go to sleep. I need my sleeping pills... "OK, Kane, I'm going to be GDI, you're NOD, and... as usual, I use trainer."

A not too hard winning vs computer will make me sleep better, that's my sleeping pills.

If you're talking about the Philippines it's a NIC not a third world country. But pay to play or not everyone who buys the game still gets the chance to play single player which is always a good time.

I don't understand. So you're agreeing with me? Cause on the bottom it says newly industrialized countries (NIC) which includes the philippines. While their economies are not as developed as 'first world' countries they are enough so that people can get jobs and earn reasonable money.

This is so off-topic. I wish blizzard would release some more info so we could have things to talk about.

We need to post more general discussion stuff. Tell stories about badass Starcraft games or something. Or any video games at all...

ok.. i am filipino, but i live in us, cali. back home in filithere use to be like at list 2-3 comp gaming place in one area. most of the times they didnt play online, but we did play lan games a lot. usually 1 vs 1, 2 vs 2, or in some cases 1 vs 2-3.

and single player is crap... we never played the single player, just lan, or practice against bot, but as i have learned in time that bots are wont be enough to improve your skills, if you wanan go pro there is only 1 way to usually do it... p vs p
