The fact that an old game is till I sale somewhere means nothing. really bad bad comparison man... or a troll. approximately 9 years after release: in 1992 ET was no where... having no distribution channel of any kind... its price is still dirt cheap. in 2007, Brood War was the 17th best selling PC Game in North America... the Battle Chest was not just for sale "somewhere", in 2007 the Brood War BattleChest was at every Business Depot, and GameStop and EB Games. SC64 was over $100 for many years. Not so for "ET"... its dirt cheap. relative to playing other 1983 games by Activision, ET is horrible and has won many many awards as "worst game ever". from 1998 to 2001 SC1 was considered a top game... and won many 'game of the year awards'. SC1 is a timeless classic.. and it set up SC2 big time. Brood War is a great game and its LONG TERM popularity is objective evidence of the quality experience people have playing it. | ||

No, I didn't know what the situation was with the writers. Plus I was expecting someone with the writer's avatar to write better posts  | ||

I like to think that we make up for our shitposting by doing other things, though ^_^ | ||
