My theory is that China really wants its own games to prosper, and it sees Starcraft 2 as a threat to the prosperity of its own companies.

China has very very strict laws about outside media, even including television and music. At the same time China turns a blind eye to internal companies pirating Windows operating systems and producing their own, subpar versions and renaming them as if they were original.

Blizzard is right for not being intimidated by the Chinese government. They are braver than google.

Just let China try to ban SC2 when it's released.

China probably think it is big enough to be its own world.

Sounds plausible.

These must be levels, right? This kind of censorship never helped anyone and acceptance simply demonstrates a high level of indoctrination.

Anyway, ridiculous, ensuring government control at the expense of the population -- unrelated to SC2. Makes me think China has it worse than the United States.


Unrelated to starcraft2 but not to this topic. I just hope you're kidding about that last statement. Really, there's plenty, plenty of countries (including industrialized ones) that have it worse than the US!

so basically they won't include LAN support for sc2 because the country which won't even see the game will pirate it too much?

SC1 is scary as hell. Hold position lurkers on a group of M&Ms gives me nightmares.
