(lol stereotype) The same as other countries with the social stigma, but it seems really strong here. A lot of people won't play games at all for that reason. On top of that, people don't really take it seriously in general. However for SC2, there are a lot of good UK players so far, so look out for them. We're more than just DeMuslim! | ||

![]() Hopefully as the game picks up speed, more LAN's will start doing it, I can't think of another popular RTS, Company of Heroes and DoW are both getting on a bit now. | ||

You should link your topics man - you've got your pride and glory zerg taking on the mighty NTT tomorrow right? I can't believe the OP didn't run a proper search what with all the UK events going on. 4 B&I opens, a playoff, two nationwars, a Flicky Mini, 2 LAN events and a showmatch tomorrow. That's more than most countries. | ||

I'm American, but I've lived in the UK for years. Yeah, I also have gotten the impression they don't love PC gaming. Don't get me wrong, I've been in many UK clans, but as a cultural thing in general the british just don't like PC gaming - there's a really massive social stimga attached to being a PC gamer in the UK. They do love their console gaming though. | ||

I was thinking of coming down to meet up with a couple of friends I'm not entirely sure (I'm going up to London for uni at the end of the month) but judging from the forum, I think they do have SC2... I hope it has bw too ![]() | ||
