Star(craft) Gazing

So with all of GB's coverage of Starcraft 2 I really became intrigued with it. I have had a minimal intrest in RTS games, though I have played some in my past. For the most part all of my RTS experience was Age of Empires 2: Age of Kings. My local library had it and I would borrow it every so often and have a bit of fun. I got mostly played it the same everytime. Make a crap ton of stuff and attack all at once! It worked for the most part, but not always. Spore's RTS part of the game dimly re-ignited my RTS intrest, but that was so watered down that I didn't get much out of it. Spore was a fun game, but I feel each part kinda on its own wasnt too great. I found every play through that I could always overtake every other species in all of the RTS modes easily.
All of GB's coverage of SC2 got me even more interested in it. I watched all of the videos and for some reason it was really growing on me that I needed to try this game!!! Well being a college kid and college starting soon I found it in bad intrest to buy a $60 game right now. I hoped someone would maybe lend me an extra key so I could play. I was also worried of the game not working well on my Mac Book Pro, which is my only computer right now. So I did the next best thing, I bought the original Starcraft! It's pretty old so I'm confident it will work on my Mac. I got the battlechest for $10 on Amazon so I figure it was a pretty good deal! I am super excited and worried. Worried more because of how much more time others have had with it and me coming in pretty much new to RTS multiplayer. I think there is CPU versus mode in it. Hopefully so I can do some easier MP play. Here's to hopin it goes well!
