Got mine delivered about an hour ago. That air shipping (for 25USD) Sure was worth it. Nothing like getting it in the mail a whopping 15hours before I can even install the game WOOT WOOT. (Funny enough I managed to purchase the collectors edition online 5 or so days ago, even though it was sold out EVERYWHERE.... plus i got it in the mail early)

Don't drag your girlfriend to a video game release, man. Leave her at home, brotha. I'm doing you a favor.

I am waiting for work to end, going home to sleep until its time to pick my game up! Can't wait!

lol, exactly.

My wife wanted to come... I tried to explain the nicest way possible that she would NOT want to be there.

But hey, at least she's supportive! She's even inquiring about how to play. I wouldn't let her touch beta though, didn't want to crush her hopes in such a hostile environment. I'll let her play the campaign first

If you think it's too hard there are solutions other than asking for a nerf, getting better is the first that comes to mind.

I wish Grubby would start seriously training for SC2... such a great player, and also just a really good person. Always goes out of his way for his fans.

Denmark represent!! (Aarhus to be specific)

Local Blockbuster:

[image loading]

There ware loads of Starcraft-related stuff going on like screens and stuff, but I managed to capture pretty much none of it.

My mate got his game here, and he got a free T-shirt too :D

Here's where I got my collector's edition (GameStop, Bruuns Galleri):

[image loading]

Such a long line! You couldn't see the actual retailer for so long!

[image loading]

Aaaand we're in. Screens and speakers running Starcraft trailers.

[image loading]

And finally back home with Collector's Edition, t-shirt, magnetic signs for the fridge and ofc the Jim Raynor dog tag!!

[image loading]

The text on the fridge and the shirt is the same. I <3 Starcraft!
Hmmm, I wonder what terran is doiAAAAARGH BANSHEEEEES

Played 4-5 missions in campaign. I won't spoil anything for anyone, but from what I've played the campaign is worth the wait, and quite fun. The non-cinematic cutscenes (on Hyperion bridge for example) look almost as good as the cinematics, its really incredible. Like I said I played 5 non-training missions and not one has had me doing the same things or using the same play style.

I'll second you on that.

I've never been much of a "fan" for anybody. But a SC2 poster signed by Grubby is just cool.

In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Was at the webhallen event and it was sick. About an hours worth of sc1 and sc2 music performed live by a band, gfx cards being raffled and just loads of great stuff. Extra bonus meeting people you know when waiting in line as well as making new aquiantances. 7hrs spent total and it was just awesome.

like i would show the key if i wouldn't have registered it for the longest time
besides, i don't think you can reconstruct it from the video.
too low resolution and to much compression.
