Starcraft is one of the few games I buy at full price. However, since I'm pretty busy at the moment, I think I'll wait for the first discount sale at Fry's for Legacy of the Void before I pick it up, since I likely won't get to it until the price drops anyway :)

I used to play it all the time, but Blizzard ruined team games for me (which was by and far my favorite part of the multiplayer), so I only play the campaigns now.

just buy it on day 1; Blizzard quality is such that game WILL be working, and it won't be discounted a year from now anyway.

I personally am planning to buy it asap, although not necessarily on day 1 since that may not fit my schedule. I cannot stop gaming once I start, so I'd rather wait for when I have time to spare.

Yeah, I know it will for sure be good to go on day 1. I just don't have a lot of time to spare right now, and I remember seeing HotS for half off during a Fry's promo not too long after it came out. So, I'm probably going to wait since I have plenty of other stuff to do, keep an eye on the promos, and grab it when I see it then :)

The only thing I'll have to look out for is spoilers!

I just watched a few youtube warcraft 3 videos and looked at the comments. This game is still very active, 13 years after it came out and long after popular RTS or fantasy alternatives have been produced.

As for Starcraft 1, amazing thing it that some people still buy this game. These aren't nostalgic collectors, but people who heard about the game from all their friends and saw the videos on youtube and decided they had to get a piece of the action.

I know that there are some diehard fans who actually say they like H6 or that their favorite Heroes was H5 or that H7 is a great game. But will they still play it 13 years later?

Ubisoft doesn't even begin to understand the concept of quality.

I still like Starcraft/Broodwar better than SC2. SC2 is dumbed down and the multiplayer (specifically team games) was reduced to shared bases if you want to play ranked games. I loved playing 2v2 on iccup in brood war. Talk about insanely challenging! You had to be able to get units and get out on the map immediately or the other team had map control and you lost. Hardcore team micro battles simply can't be beat in SC1 / BW :D

Now, I only play multiplayer for SC2 when my friends beg me to play. I do, however, enjoy the campaign, but since that's all I'm going to play, I'm waiting for LotV to go on sale :D

If anyone played team melee in SC1/BW, they've apparently brought that game mode back for this expansion, so I may actually do some multiplayer for that :D
