    Oh, well - that would suck...

    But...

    I was under the impression that the original SC was rated T as well? Hm?

    (Refer to to link)
    http://www.blizzard.com/starcraft/
    Bottom right hand of that page.

    :p
    (btw, now that I look closely, when those nukes explode, those marines do as well)
    It's not hopeless!!!

    Also, I'm not a big fan of RTS at ALL. I mean, when I play Warcraft III, I play Footies, and thats about it. I don't even like C&C. But SC is magical, ok? In MY opinion, I will go as far as to say it's the best game ever made. I lurve it. Yes, lurve.

    The issue with ratings is - people have become more sensetive to violence. There's so much crap (a lot of which is political) over violent games, it's not even funny. It's likely scaring a lot of game developers out of actually making games they way they're supposed to be and envisioned. It's progression, and sadly in the wrong direction.

    1) my 7 year old cousin picked up starcraft a few weekends back and loves it. age means nothing in starcraft. Its the cream of the crop of games ever created.

    2) C&C 3 in my opinon is a fantastic game but the memory usage is a tad bid worring.

    3) The rating issue will rage for some time to come. I find unfair you can slice and dice (heh, for you old school starcraft fans) zerglings and cannot explode some marines. Maybe closer to release it'll be corrected.

    When I went to the StarCraft website and saw the ingame screenshots I wasn't truely amazed. But I decided to bite the bullet and download the ingame movie.

    I nearly shat my pants...

    I had chills running up my spine..

    My heart went racing...

    I played StarCraft several years ago and loved it. I will not love SC2 though..

    I will marry it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:approval: :smoke: :) :)

    Yep, marines get sliced in half, explode in blood, all that good stuff. Its just a matter of Starcraft now having a physics engine. The more damage you do to a marine, the more it explodes :).

    Those reapers corkscrew off with their jetpacks before they explode in midair, its awesome.

    I wonder if we are going to get an update on the Xel' Naga and the Hybrids that Duran made at the end of Brood War. There doesn't seem to be any mention of them and I would hate for the stroyline not to include some sort of explanation since it was a massive cliffhanger especially with all the mystery surrounding Duran.

    Yeah i was wondering the same thing. Could this be reserved for an Expansion???

    or could it be kept secret until the game releases and explains it withing story line? I wonder......

    it's now "en taro tassadar", if you watched the developer walkthrough for starcraft 2. Heck, it's been "en taro tassadar" since brood wars.
