Starting today, if you reserve StarCraft II at GameStop, you'll get an invite to the beta printed out on your receipt. Guess where I'm going RIGHT NOW

Yup.

The only disclaimer is that officially, unlike other reservations, once you claim the code, you can't cancel the reservation, which means if you decide not to pick the game up, your $5 has to sit there.

However, the guy on Kotaku said he talked to his local GS and said they'd still let people cancel. Plus, it's like paying $5 for a key even if you don't want the game, which is worth it to me at least. If you know you want it, it's a win-win. (The $5 comes off the price of the game, in case you didn't know).

Well here we go, this game blows. It's the same damn game that i've played . It's just like every other RTS out there.

I will still keep my copy cause I want the in game stuff for WoW but I will sell the game. Don't need it, don't want it.

So if you want the game I will sell you my copy.

Thank god for Company of Heroes actually doing something better than just Resource whoring, build shit, more whoring, smash shit, repeat.

Kinda sad actually, no wonder I never got into RTS's.

@ Wingless

So youd rather play WOW? Farming/Whording for gold and rep and tokens?

heeheh sorry had to point that out..

But seriously it hasnt billed itself as much of anything more than a repaint of the original..

Have you tried DoW? It's probably my favorite RTS like that, and I believe it was similar to Company of Heroes (same developers for sure). But yes, I can agree with you on the issues with SC and RTS in general. I don't like the resource farming aspects often, and they can often break down into the same types of strategies and games. If SC2 is just higher graphics, I'll be sure to avoid it. Not that I hate SC, but I don't care about high graphics. It looks nice, but the game itself needs updates, and I don't want to get involved in the Blizzard Battle.Steam, er, Net.

So I'm a fan of what I've played so far, but then again I like RTS... which is why I'm interested in it :P

If anyone else is playing, my ID on the beta is Lersar.army, if you want to post yours up so we can play some together
