EPTAlso, the data hasn't been uploaded to the internet yet, and because he has a poor upload connection (about 30kb/s) it will take 3 days to finish.
Some people may rant and say these are reasons supporting it being fake - I disagree.

I beat level 3 and if i dont have a archievement nobody knows it and i cant prove it. OMG. you had fun by beating level 3 and 10000000 other player did it. so why you need a medal that you did it and why the rest of the world must know that you did it? sorry again i dont write such replays normaly but like i said i was really lol There's a huge difference from SC:BW type of Gamers and Newbie Gamers. The new Gamer generation was brought up on medals, trophies, and cool achievements! Although your post is horribly written, I get what you are saying. It's just the experience gap between gamers who care to those who don't give a crap. Newbs love shiny stuff. | ||

No legitimate uploader posts the first few rapidshare links and claims to have 30kb/s upload speed. Just saying don't be naive, don't expect anything from this guy. | ||

Can't even be played, and it only shows stuff we already knew was gonna be a part of the collector's edition. I just don't really see any sort of significance whether it is real or not. | ||

With a suboptimal set up program, 30 kB Upload would be what I'd get when uploading with my connection. And I've got ~500 kB max download speed, and max 46 kB Upload - so that should be at least believeable. But Yeah, Photoshop could be the issue, as always and everywhere on the interwebs =) But...If that install screen is real, thats freaking hilaious. | ||

Going to leave this open until we can confirm or deny it's legitimacy. That seems likely, and they can always "update" or "fix" the game via patch after installation. I know it's not the same, but Magic: The Gathering prints their new card game sets a year or more in advance before the set actually comes out. This has led to people obtaining their product early and actually opening the cards too. I remember Wizards of the Coast dropped several bombs (lawsuits) on individuals in the past or that. | ||

Whether they work at Blizzard, friend of Blizzard employee, work for a website or magazine...Its not like some guy broke into Blizzard in a ninja suit and stole it. And even if so, what is the big deal? Can't even be played, and it only shows stuff we already knew was gonna be a part of the collector's edition. I just don't really see any sort of significance whether it is real or not. No one wants that the game they are buying and patiently waiting to be played by pirates who just downloaded it from the internet a month before the release. This game doing well in sales is in our best interest. | ||

They have announced they wont make changes in final release version, that is because they need time to print physical Disk. It's not like a top secured CIA file, I bet at least 200 people has one in their hand. One of the just like to show off. | ||

So imo, this could be awesome. The percentile which would buy SC2 for the campaign alone isn't really big. | ||

If you look at the files in the ISO you can see the creation date is 24th May, that's over 2 months before launch day. I expect we will have to download a rather large patch on day one, if this is indeed the retail version. There may have been big content patches like the editor in the beta but they were already developed at that time and will be on the copy. The things we have to download will be mostly balance patches from the later stages of the beta and maybe some fancy stuff they put in in the last weeks. | ||

It sounds like a direct chinese transalation. Blizzard would have said "It's Not Time Yet" I speak both languages fluently. Just something to note. | ||

Although your post is horribly written, I get what you are saying. It's just the experience gap between gamers who care to those who don't give a crap. Newbs love shiny stuff. This is retarded. Some people are into extra challenges/things to collect or complete, others aren't. I don't know why so many people here need to make it known that *they* don't give a fuck about achievements -- no one cares if you don't. They're a nice thing to do, and hopefully they'll have creative achievements. There are people who like long-term progress, in a way achievements are very much an RPG-type thing. SC1 BNet had no achievements, WC3 BNet had unlockable icon tiers and levels (sc had rating but..that ladder was a joke) which made it much more interesting. If you're not into achievements, okay. No need to diss them. They aren't solely for newbs, plenty of competitive players will be into them. | ||
