Starcraft II Multiplayer Walkthrough

Looks good. Never got into the RTS genre. But that looked like it could be alot of fun. What site can  i go to to see more of those types of matches?

Not really, I think they're legitimately excited about the game.  It does look pretty fun and worthy of that kind of sportscast.  Will I ever play the game this seriously?  No way.  But at least it was fun to watch if you kinda understand the basics of Starcraft.

koreans will eat this up

That was awesome.  These guys know too much about SC2 to be anyone but Blizzard guys.  If they got the right people together and they got good at it, it would be helpful to making playing videogames a spectator sport, because it would help people understand what is going on.  Even if they play the game, most people aren't hardcore enough to be able to follow high-level play.  I personally enjoy watching people play videogames at a high level, and what really is the difference between that and watching people play games with balls and sticks?  Videogames even take a certain manual dexterity sort of atheleticism, which is evidenced by the fact that most progamers, especially in South Korea, have to give it up in their mid-twenties.

I actually liked the commentators a little, they were good at analysing the match.

Im actually a lot more excited for starcraft from this

Still probably more excited for Total War

omg this is lame as fuck.

OMG WILL THE PROBE GET AWAY THIS IS AMAZING ACTION HERE IN COOLOS RAVINE!

I love the commentators attempts at making the maps seem bigger then it really is."All!! the way  across the map this huge battlefield is....".The repetition of all! does not make the map any bigger.However I like small RTS maps and I am looking forward to playing this game.

Terran FTW

I didn't enjoy the commentary that much, but for a 20 minute video I think it was pretty good. I'm not even much of an RTS fan, but I enjoyed seeing some different strategies and unit match-ups. I still would prefer the play-by-play guys to take a breath every now and then, but they did their job of making me more interested in this kind of competitive play.

I feel like I'm watching football.  Why does knowing where the other player is matter if the maps are mirrored?

He's like a geeky bizzaro version of John Madden.

No sound here at work, so I can't comment on the commentators.  But the graphics look clean and the gameplay looks polished.  That's all I wanted from a Starcraft sequel, so I'm pumped!

korean starcraft TV anyone? =D

Lol. I thought those guys talking were funny as hell. Freaking out about a marine trying to kill a prob.

I've always felt meh about Starcraft even though I'm an RTS fan. Weird, huh?

Dam these announcers sound like two speedfreaks who drank one too many coffees.

Looks like fun, just hope I can adapt to it, playing loads of C&C 3, and Dawn of War.

This reminds me of football, a very boring game to watch and the only way people can think to make it exciting is by having needless commentary...

I liked this, now i want the game even moarrrr

I am FIRST  FINALLY i always wanted to say that

good for you

how do you quote other people argh?

Damn, this game looks good. Looks like it's time to buy a new PC.

I didn't know they were making a Starcraft HD Remix.

Very interesting! I thought for sure the terrans were going down. I'd be interested in seeing some later tech from these guys.

The two dudes commentary during fights and such was sooooooo lame. They should hang themselves for trying to make it sound like we were watching the Super Bowl.

yea video game commentators- uh no!- not working for me... well especially those two, they sounded like horse race commentators on crack... like seriously WTF!!.. maybe if they wer'nt  so in your face i may have actually been able to watch the video without cracking up every few seconds at how ridiculous they sounded...

lol korean starcraft battlecast is prolly hella hardcore. that game looks pretty cool, the back up and shoot once was annoying, i hope they work something out to fix that

OMFG AW3S0M3

So true alpha.  So true.

Wow, I actually liked the play-by-play.  That kind of thing usually sucks when applied to video games, but these guys are pros.

Never played Starcraft, so most of what they said made no sense lol!

looks kool as hell...need more classic games to come back...wheres warcraft 4?....

I found the video very interesting, and the commentators didn't bother me. I hope to get some time in with Starcraft II after it comes out, especially the multiplayer. Definitely need to get better at playing before then anyways, and luckily I still have some time lol. Thanks @ Slippery for providing the website to catch some other matches^^

Hey im def looking forward to SC2. The commentators did a great job because i learned a lot that I dont think I would have realized my first Online match. GreatGAME AND ALLREADY HAVE IT PRE-ORDERED

I learned a lot from watching this video. I'm new to Starcraft, and as corny as the announcers are, I'm glad they are breaking down the game a bit and showing how exciting a match can be. Looking forward to Starcraft II!

Goddamn i love this site
