About 2 days ago i saw a banner on youtube for Sc2 probably the best advertising one can get at the internet. And just a srcond ago i saw TV advertising (Kabel 1, Big German channel) for Starcraft 2. Never seen anything like that for a PC game, probably i didn't realized it. Anyways i love it get the Esport spread out to the community =D. Just wanna let u know...hf gg | ||

Edit: Even for PC, games like WoW and Dragon Age were hyped up a lot on TV | ||

Mass advertising is how Apple promotes their products, such as starting a viral add campaign by someone "losing" their iPhone 4. | ||

It's not being marketed as an RTS game, but instead like an epic shooter or RPG. | ||

It's not being marketed as an RTS game, but instead like an epic shooter or RPG. thats because most people don't know what an RTS is over a FPS/RPG. Advertising != actual product. | ||

Edit: Even for PC, games like WoW and Dragon Age were hyped up a lot on TV um halo 3 and mw2 are mainly console games... and dragon age is the rare exception, WOW is a horrible example, as we all know its unique and dominates the gaming market. theres never ever beena RTS game with this advertising or anything even close | ||

They are immensely aggressive. How else are they able to sell such shoddy products time and again? | ||

It's not being marketed as an RTS game, but instead like an epic shooter or RPG. I think they might be banking on widespread familiarity with starcraft 1, and they want to show off their cinematics team. To somebody who's completely unfamiliar with the game, these trailers make it look like an incredible experience no matter how the game plays. I remember seeing the trailers for WoW before it was released and honestly they are the only reason I bought it, never having played an MMO before. | ||
