StarCraft II is Year's Biggest PC Game Launch [Aug 03, 2010, 11:06 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty sold more than a million copies in 24 hours and 1.5 million copies over the first 48 hours of availability, announces Blizzard. They say this makes the real-time strategy sequel the biggest PC game launch of the year, and that this sets a record "for fastest-selling strategy game of all time."
People on the fence about multiplayer should consider that "multiplayer" is not just limited to 1v1 skirmishes or even team skirmishes for that matter.
Multiplayer includes a very broad range of games built using the map-editor. Casual games like Nexus Wars, Turret Defense, Evolves are a fun distraction. I played Nexus Wars for the first time last night and ended up so engrossed that I didn't realize I had been playing it for 3 hours. This is just the tip of the iceberg too - I've heard of Mario Kart re-makes, Metal Slug re-makes and R-Type re-makes being built.
$60 is going a long way for me.
