on the contrary to ever helping starcraft in korea, on numerous occasions theyve attempted to kill it off because they decided they wanted to milk it even harder. Progaming and starcraft in korea would be in a MUCH MUCH better place if kespa never existed now its kind of funny that blizzard is trying to rescue progaming and kespa would rather go down with the ship than give up the total control it has now | ||

lol @ the naive comments about how KeSPA keeps Starcraft alive. /facepalm. Funny, I as well as others have been watching competitive Starcraft way back when it was only available as obscure streaming tournament in Korea. With players such as IntoTheRain, XD'Grr. Enjoy your Starcraft 2 in 2012. P.S. SkelA, STFU. K, thx. | ||

However, that is absolutely stupid. It's bleeding obvious that SCII isn't an adult game. The only thing this would do is increase hype in SCII. I expect every kid in Korea to play this game when it launches. | ||

This committee is also doing things like 'automatic time out at 12am' for ALL online games for teenagers. They just started for some online games such as Maplestory. Anyway I thinks it is just a warning from KeSPA to Blizzard that who is in control of e-sports in Korea, which I think Blizzard will eventually win. Committee will make it +15 later on anyway also. Your post is completely contradictory. You start by saying that is's not KeSPA that did this, then you said that it is a warning from KeSPA to Blizzard, implying that they did do this. I don't understand what you are trying to say. KeSPA effectively owns all eSports in Korea. There is no doubt that they had some hand in this. | ||

First, committee and KeSPA are not diretly connected. committee is under government control and KeSPA is not. Second, i believe somehow KeSPA and committee have shared interest and committee is sided with KeSPA. So, my second statement from origianl quote is just my guessing Oh, they call it Game Rating Board. my bad on that | ||

The two organizations are independent of each other in every official sense, but I can say confidently that KeSPA almost certainly had a hand in this decision by the board.

I'm still not convinced. Marines were decapitated in BW, and most Zerg units exploded. This rating seems completely unnecessary to me. | ||

SC2 has some violence, but it's nothing shocking. If Kespa has nothing to do with this, could it be that Korea is afraid that SC2 will be so good that school grades will fall? Amusingly enough, it seems likely ;P | ||
