StarCraft, Expansion and Console Gaming

I looked around and saw nothing on the epic StarCraft.
Meh, I know its an old game but I (and many many others) still play it.
The online play itself boosted the replay factor on the game 10 fold and if you haven't played it shame on you (or it may not be your cup of joe' whatever.) If anyone here still plays it let me know, I'd love to crush you into nothingness and make you crawl back to the one who gave you suck. (Yo mama, to those who don't know

Quranic reference.)
BTW for some reason I can't find a realise date for the new console game "StarCraft Ghost." anyone know anything about it?

It has been delayed till the end of time. Who knows when that game will come out.

That's kind of sad.
They are working with such a good franchise and are kind of killing it. To be honest I'm not really sure it would be that great of a game, as a SC vet I hate to admit it but its probably true, I've never known Blizzard to put out any 3rd party shooters (correct me if im wrong.) Should had made something with WarCraft first and delayed it, then I wouln't care.
By the way, you play the original SC on pc at all, Ayanami?

I used to play StarCraft all the time back in the day. It was a fav of mine for a very long time. If you want to play me some time, I will have to try and find my dusty copy wherever it may be or just fork over the cash for the box set or whatever. It is cheap as hell.

heh, sounds good.
I was hoping to find one of youse guys to beat up on.
But really, embarrassingly enough I'd have to find mine as well, I have brought atleast fifty copies, but I always seem to lend them out so that I can play other people. When I have it I'll gladly play you.

Well, if you guys are gonna get some SC play together, I should grab my discs when I come home from school next. And unlike you un-organized people, I know EXACTLY where my discs are

Blah whatever, I'll get them when I get home too.
Yeah we should do a 1v1v1 though so's I can test your skills. Or so that you kill each other while I shake my rust off. Whatever comes first.
oh and V.S. Comps DAMMIT!
No joke I used to play that so much on those money maps .... the horror ....
---- Oh yeah, I only play on money maps. I was a pro, but I shutter to think whats become of me now, Maybe you never lose that edge.

Before I fall asleep;
Buz: If you're familiar with the hadith Saeed muslim in there there is an entire hadith about paying homage or always giving respect to the one who gave you suck A.K.A the one who nursed you B.K.A your mother. didn't think about it too much into when I wrote it but yeah, thats what I meant.
--- Back to SC
I still haven't heard anyone talk about favorite races or strategies, whats's up with that? I guess I'll have to wait till tomorrow .... or make that later on today.

Yea but you said Quranic refrence...
Anyways.
Back in the day I was all about hydras. Maybe Hydras and Gaurds. If i was feeling frisky i would attempt a muta bomb.

Maybe my statement was inconclusive?
Meh... This particular hadith quotes the Quaran and related it in a way that the sahabi could understand and follow. It was pulled from a surah that I can't remember. I learned it as a kid and thought it was funny. My comment was so subtle. I guess I should be more careful.
---- Once again .. back to SC
Hydras and gaurds where my thing back in the day. But going fast Hydras w/o gaurds is way better cause gaurds suck with gas, plus I've grown to hate mutas (Hydras > Mutas) and you have more time to update, thats what works.
Oh yeah one more thing, when we get to play, it's always no rules, I don't want to hear 20 minutes no rush, I always thought that was crazy.

Yeah ... I was hoping for atleast a little news, but just like every other site I'm left with nothing. Sucks.

Well if your a fan of blizzard rts games then perhaps you might wanna play me in wc3 someday ;D!
bw is fun but naaah you don't see that many european bw players anymore :{~~

I tried getting into Wc3 I was so impressed with the single player campagin. But when I played online, the hero aspect of it killed the experience. One her will wipe out your supply exceeded army with one move. Also I didn't like the drawn out upgrades to the buildings.
Plus,. you should Play original sc, the hackers flock to BW, original is still kind of save, but I must say, destroying someone when you know they are hacking is a wonderful feeling.

I have been gone a while, so sorry for not responding. Going through some BS with life right now.
Any way, I play Zerg, that is what I play.

No rules id prolly have to go protoss and try and cannon rush. If that failed just goons for me.

Cannon rush?!?
Buz that really made me sad, when people did that to me I got so pissed off, But iI will say that it makes you easier to kill.
That does it! I'm going to just plain rebuy the game today (it's only 10 bucks and worth it.) . If you have it you should get on too.
Edit: I just found my disk. So looks like im not buying it, so if anyone whats to play just say so.

Got that right. Single player was cool, but online way so gay, with the hackers and what not, plus the new units were uber gay as well.
When you have the game and are ready to play, just post, I'll gladly play anyone here. I played a few games this morning, after like 4 months, I lost one because of a cannon rush, Buz jinxed me I swear.

no its becuase protoss had too much advantage in Brood War.
if you were zerg you would easily seen the dark templars...

by dos.azn
how does protoss have so much advantage? ive seen tons of terran players who owned with the simple combo of medics and marines, not to mention goliath charon boosters upgrade is a killer advantage to anti-air

wow this takes me back. I use to be a protoss player back in the day. I was the type of guy who liked to hold out for as long as possible and then come out with guns blazing mostly with mass carriers. Im cleaning my room as of this post, gona see if im lucky and find my old sc disks. Wish me luck.
