YESSSSS, I can't wait for this to come out. SC is getting a bit old with all the Defense and Bound games :S

Error on battle.net when you try and create an account.

Edit: Checked the EU website and found a work around. Go to www.battle.net/login/login.xml (http://www.battle.net/login/login.xml) and then make an account.

Or just, click here (https://us.battle.net/account/creation/tos.xml?ref=).

On that note, the battlereports are pretty cool, there's only one at the moment to my knowledge though.

Doubt it.

However, I added my Starcraft key to the website, and it unlocked the Anthology... Which is kinda funny because that gives you access to Broodwar, and I never bought Broodwar. :iamafag:

You never bought Brood War? WHAA!!?!?!? Oh, wait... says the guy that only completed most of the first game... at least without cheats, though.

As for SCII... I wonder how well it'll run on a computer that only meets the "official" minimum requirements? I mean... one reason why Starcraft 1 is still so popular is that it'll run on almost any computer. It didn't take much of a computer to run it back when it was new, either.

Blizzard goes to great lengths to optimize their games for all current and popular hardware, I'm sure Starcraft 2 will be no different.

The game requires a video card with SM 2.0 support, otherwise there you should no problems.

Unfortunately this IS fake. However I wouldn't be surprised if this is where the bet invites will go out.
