The SS2->Bioshock analogy actually works a lot better than he realizes, for the wrong reasons. | ||

Well, if someone were to try and port ss2 onto a console, it would be unplayable unless you were God. This is where most of the analogy comes from. I'm not talking about the actual design flaws of Sc2 (I've been lurking on the forum long enough to know most of them by heart), but valid arguments are about 5% of them. Most of the hate I see comes from "Sc2 is a child's game comparatively". And calling Sc2 a dead game because of its gameplay is kind of dumb, for obvious reasons, but I rarely see people calling it a dead game for stuff like the rise of other competing "e-sports" or a lack of heavy community support. Edit: though not really sure about other comparisons to ss2 to bio and bw sc2. | ||
