Agreement with publishers IIRC, they'll eventually have it available from the blizzard store for download I'm pretty sure | ||

Can't believe some of you are saying the prices are reasonable, don't forget that you have to pay those prices THREE times... I won't purchase 3 copies. Speak for yourself. | ||

What you are paying for is a full length campaign, just as you are with Wings of Liberty. If you don't think that's worthwhile, then don't buy it. Single-player wise, this is 3 games, so you pay for 3 games (they also stated that the other 2 would be expansion pack price, whatever that means). | ||

Do they realize why Warcraft 3 RoC/ TFT was quite popular in Russia and countries nearby? Because each game cost $10 - yes, ten fucking dollars! There was plenty of private servers and the game had LAN too, but the people still were buying legitimate versions. I personally know many people who would never buy the game if it was $60 but bought easily for $20 (RoC+TFT). Personally, I don't care about the price, but I care a lot about crappy Bnet 0.2 and the general "milk them till they die!" direction ACTIVISION-blizzard is taking. I will not buy the game if it remains in its current state. | ||

What's the problem with buying an extra expansion that you didn't in starcraft? Don't have a heart attack now! | ||
