Damn, it was a long wait from SC1 ... then, I found myself on holiday in the Shuswap with no good electronics stores nearby on launch day
Finally, this week I located a copy of the Collector's Edition since I was holding out for the extras (playing the Soundtrack CD on a 7.1 system is awesome
)
I'm still going through the tutorials since it has been quite a while since I had dedicated playing time. The storyline vignettes in the tutorials are great. I doubt that I will play competitively ... I can't really afford the time that this great RTS would soak up on Battle.net.
Even so, the wife is already calling me Mr. Starcraft when I crank the sound up
And she complains that I don't hear her calling when SC2 is running (not sure yet if that is a pro
or a con
)
