Starcraft 2 is good but quit fondling the box
Starcraft 2 launched this month, finally giving you a reason to pry away that vice like grip you have on your lonely, abused penis. My thoughts? Starcraft 2 is a good game. I’m enjoying playing it. It’s not a life changing experience like backing over your neighbors 4 year old but it’s still fun. I’m very satisfied with what they delivered. It’s tight, the graphics are solid, the leveling system that Blizzard has introduced makes the single player feel slightly less linear and the whole interface redesign is slicker than the gallons of used motor oil I pour into my neighbor’s creek. So what’s the catch?
The Return of Blizzard
I honestly believe that the greatest era for video games dawned in 1994 and ended in 2003. During that nine year period we saw the arrival of the best developer on earth, Blizzard Entertainment, release five ground breaking titles. All but their first game, Warcraft: Orcs and Humans, were followed up with a solid expansion to generate a near endless amount of high quality gameplay. Everywhere, regrettably unaborted nerds rejoiced.
