The only good Blizzard games are Diablo,
Warcraft/Starcraft are crap, Command and conquer is a much better RTS. The only people who play Starcraft are Koreans, why are you hyping this trashy sequel?

That is completely racist.[QUOTE="peacebringer"][QUOTE="subrosian"][QUOTE="peacebringer"][QUOTE="mismajor99"] [QUOTE="subrosian"]You're such a platform loyalist that you'd rather commit suicide than conceded that Starcraft 2 *gasp* might be possible on a console? Was Command & Conquer 3 simply *ruined* because it exists on the Xbox 360? Get out of here with that nonsense. Pikmin and Pikmin 2 worked fine on the Gamecube, C&C3 was solid on the 360, and Starcraft 2 would (yes, I know, terribly hard to accept) be *just fine* on the Xbox 360 or PS3.
What are you going to do? Complain about the graphics? We've all been playing Starcraft just fine and it's as dated as you can get graphically - or are you going to go the "kb&m only!" route - despite C&C3 proving a control pad works *fine* for RTS gaming? Maybe try a cheap bash at Xbox LIVE, in spite of it being a proven online gaming service?
Frankly, all I see here is a PC gamer afraid that their platform no longer has anything distinguishing it, outside of the ability to upgrade their graphics card.

Wow, that's an ignorant statement to make.
Let him vent it's not coming to a Console and if it does it will be outsold 6 to 1 on a PC. i don't see a problem with Consoles getting a port just so they can try the game out but Blizzard will make this game for a PC and the controls won't be as forgiven as CNC3 cause it's got more to it than CNC3.
The TC has said that *death* is a better option than playing Starcraft 2 on an Xbox 360. "Starcraft 2 or death sir?" "errr... death, please!"
I'm not claiming this game is coming to the 360 or PS3, what I am claiming is that it's possible, and that it wouldn't be such a terrible game. Would it ever have the competitive level of playing on the PC? Maybe, maybe not, PC gamers like the kb&m speed - issuing commands so quickly it would make an amateur nauceous - but to claim such a thing is inheriently impossible on a controller, or that a console, simply by the nature of being a console, would "water down" the game is absurd.
If Microsoft suppored usb keyboards & mice for Starcraft 2 on the xbox 360, what would be the difference between playing it on the 360, and playing it on a mid-range PC? It's inferior simply by being a console? At heart - this is what hermits claim, and it's what annoys the heck out of everyone else.
I agree i don't think it will effect Starcraft 2 so much if it went to a console but i don;t think Blizzard is making it slow enough for a controller to handle. the only console would be PS3 since you can input a Mouse and keyboard. But if it does come to a console it won't be the same time the PC game comes out. I noticed in LOTR Battle for middle earth 2 for 360 and CNC3 for 360 on the PC they walk really slow and the gameplay is rather slow maybe they did this since they were trying to make it consistant for the Console but the speed of the games is slower paced.
It would require KB&M to be competitive with PC, thought you are aware the 360 supports USB KB&M, just not yet for games - it would be entirely possible for them to be enabled, it's not going to happen (it won't on PS3 either, PS3 doesn't support kb&m in games, and good luck running Starcraft 2 PC on your PS3)
In any case, I'm simply bothered by *anyone* who is such a platform loyalist that the meer announcement, before they've even seen the final game, of a game they like on another platform would warrant suicide. That's not funny, it's just a sick form of straight ignorance.Â
Please, these are the same people who cry about PS3 games becoming multiplatform. Who care's if it goes to another platform? What platform will you get it for? There is NO reason to whine if Starcraft 2 comes to a console, because you'll still get it for PC.
