Wow at: "Blizzard is becoming like Nintendo, sitting in their houses made of money".

Practically every single game Blizzard has released has faceraped all other games for years, achieved massive loads of mainstream success, and spawned several cult-like followings. DoW? fun for fifteen minutes. Homeworld was cool though.

I know I am biased "because this is a blizzard-game site." but there is a reason i'm at this site and not some other random site about the "strategy" of DoW.


This argument is pretty much the product of Relic fanboys who are panicking after realizing SC2 will dominate the RTS market for the next decade or so. If this poll makes them feel better, let them win. We'll win by getting the superior game.

Exactly, complaining about lack of innovation is just illogical. As a consumer I don't give a shit who had it FIRST, I only care if they do it the BEST.

I voted.

(Good Christ, those forums are a waste of time. And I thought TL had become dilute to some extent, but now I take the thought back.)

Uh what a stupid thing this is.
I don't think anyone has explained it yet so here it goes.

From the little you can gather in here - http://www.escapistmagazine.com/tournament/index - this poll is part of a tournament where the 64 most popular game-developing companies fight in stupid popularity contest polls to see who's the best.

Uh.. ok. whatever. But then you read the bottom line:

+ Show Spoiler +
Please Note
This tournament is for FUN! All development studios have all been given the same information regarding this event, so how they choose to tell their communities about it is up to them and will be considered valid.


and you may come to the conclusion that this is just a publicity stunt by that website. I mean, they probably want to raise flamewars, and consequently page hits as well. With polls that stupid, it's only natural people from all over the place want to come over and defend their favorite company/game, through links just like the one provided by the OP.

A flaw is that once the newcomer realizes how stupid the poll/community/staff is, they probably won't stick around anyway, so yeah, mission failed.

I hate writing disclaimers, but the above is just what I think, of course. In reality, I don't know jack about that site, so forgive me if I'm wrong.
Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Man some person thinks SC is a spam fest and I have re-directed him to this site to watch VOD's and replays but he fails to comply.

Hmmm I know what im talking about, Since it does happen a few times. and plus what game do you play? SC is a SPAM FEST! IT always will be...IT a good game, so quit trying to flame me for putting up the truth about SC. SC is and always will be a SPAM Fest at times. Like rushing perhaps? Since all you do is rush your opponent with the starting units. So get off my back. I know what im talking about, I play both games, and I love relic. Call me a retard, big deal your just missing out on a great game company cause your a fanboy for blizzard. Not saying blizzard is bad, but you take it way to far.

Apparently what you have found is a shaved ape who thinks he knows how to play video games.

Blizzard could easily win the poll, but they don't really care and don't want to give them free advertisement.

Its not even worth it to vote in this thing, except to wipe the grins off the mentally retarded idiots that are claiming victory for Relic as if this one vote makes relic better then blizz as a fact. --;
