For SC2? No. Blizzard makes quality games, and I plan to get it for at least the single-player campaign and UMS maps in multiplayer. But RTS on the level that Blizzard took SC2 is just not my style (where every counter has a counter, you are forced to learn all of those relations in order to beat the competitor).

Previous to yesterdays Doctor Visit I would have said yes, However it seams starting on Monday the 26th through Wed. The 28th I will be in the Hospital, however, My Wife said that she would pick it up for me when the store opened on Tuesday, and bring it to me for me to look at :p I ordered the Collectors Edition.

No, their whole restrictive battle.net policy stinks and I won't even buy this game, or other upcoming ones if they don't correct their stance.

I'm saying this having bought all Blizzard games since Warcraft 2, and I don't really like saying it.

What do you mean by restrictive? Not allowing you to cheat and banning you if you try?

HELL YES. FREE SWAG! Thanks Anaron for the heads up (Y). I was looking forward to the Midnight Release @ Gamestop/EB... but I get more stuff @ FS. Too bad BB has nothing.

Finally, another StarCraft 2 fan (other than Sikh). /highfive

The free hat looks cool but the headset looks "cheap". I'll probably give it away if I get it (the headset, that is).

You're supposed to get both if you're in the top 50 people. (Y). :yes:

No. I'm sure I'll get it fairly soon after release, assuming it has good reviews, and I'm willing to bet it probably will. Fun, but not on my "gotta have it before everybody else list". Now Diablo 3 is another story entirely...

some of us have been waiting since '98 for this game .. lol so people like me, Anaron and Sikh will need it before everyone else (Y).

It's one thing to line up for the regular version (which can be purchased digitally) but it's another to line up for the Collector's Edition. It's certainly better than waiting for it to come in the mail.

Do you get anything different for waiting in line rather than getting it through the post?

    • So, recently, I saw on the news that Samsung is introducing features where it can provide education using AI-powered sets, and because of this, I got concerned about whether the AI gives out wrong info during education sessions, causing controversies in the process. What are your thoughts on this? 
    • TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The TCL Design Series A65K is currently $299.99, down from $499.99. That's 40% off and $200 saved on a soundbar tuned by Bang & Olufsen, which is not a combination you'd normally expect at this price point (purchase link below). Bang & Olufsen doesn't typically show up in the sub-$500 category. The Danish audio brand is known for speakers that cost several times more, so having their acoustic tuning on a $300 soundbar is very appealing. TCL handles the hardware, B&O handles the sound engineering, and the result is what the company calls "accessible luxury." Still, accessible luxury isn’t full-fledged luxury, so don’t expect wonders. But this is a decent soundbar, nevertheless. The A65K is a true 3.1.2 channel system with nine physical drivers, including genuine up-firing height speakers for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Many soundbars at this price simulate overhead effects through virtual processing, rather than actual hardware. So, you’re getting the real deal. The design is unusually slim for a system with Atmos compatibility. The bar is just under 2 inches deep and should fit beneath most TV screens. The wireless subwoofer is also compact at roughly 14 x 14 x 5 inches. Total output is 460W, and you can connect to the soundbar via HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, or USB. There are also eight sound modes through the TCL Home app and an AI calibration capability. Although it’s worth mentioning that AI capabilities in most of these devices are inconsistent, to say the least, and that shouldn’t be the biggest selling point. Still, at $299.99, the A65K is a strong buy for anyone who wants a soundbar that sounds and looks noticeably better than what this price range usually offers. And the Bang & Olufsen branding surely sounds nice - pun intended.

    • And he paid Joe Rogan $30M for podcasts. Terrible company.
    • I sure hope the AI does not give out wrong info during education
