Anyway, that razer logo is suspicious.... Razer is pretty much a big player in korea already, being one of the main sponsors for slayers. The specific choice of intel and nvidia (both slayers and blizzard partners) is pretty revealing too. "baseless conjecture" Are these companies pushing some kind of agenda? I mean, every single piece of hardware comes from companies sponsoring sc2 (even a LG monitor instead of a samsung one..). Edit: The pictures in this post, fresh from blizzcon show, speak from themselves. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/postmessage.php?quote=1388&topic_id=276447 [RAZER IS INVOLVED IN A COSPIRACY!] | ||

Can you strafe jump further with 200fps+? Is 60fps somehow not enough for BW? | ||

I remember seeing Starcraft: Phoenix on the estimated timeline sheet of Blizzard and thinking that it sounds likely - after all, how many more foreigner fans would it bring in, being able to watch BW without the crappy graphics? I expect them to keep the retarded AI etc the same, so that it doesn't alienate BW watchers. Not really substantiated by evidence at all, just my hopes ^_^ Nothing on the internet confirms that Starcraft: Phoenix is a BW remake. This theory has absolutely no evidence to support itself. The last thing Blizzard needs is a BW remake. It will impact the success of SC2 in Korea. It's off-season for Proleague right now, and the WCG viewer counts alone shows quite alot of BW fans are willing to switch over to SC2 when BW is no more. And even if Blizzard ends up working on a BW remake, it will never get full approval because the engine won't be able to replicate all of the important bugs and glitches that is part of the metagame. | ||

Since it was edited into the OP after being re-hosted I went ahead and removed it, but I haven't seen that anywhere, and I'm not really sure why it wouldn't be allowed... | ||

Once you go 200Hz.. you can FEEL the difference. Its like Neo discovering reality for he first time, its hard to describe.Why in the world would you ever use 250Hz refresh rate?
