I had a free day last weekend so I blew the dust off my blizzard account and fired up some Starcraft Brood Wars.  After getting my ass kicked a few times by the computer I started looking up Terran strategy.  Holy shit.  The detailed builds, meta game, and outright orange dicking amazes me.  For a long time there was a constantly evolving strategy/counter with no race ever holding the title for very long.  Blizzard did an amazing job on this game I think.

You'll never win unless you're Korean, so don't even bother.

Or if you're actually successful at work, you have free time.

It's nice not to hang drywall.

Yeah. Time is hard to come by.  I should've picked a fps or something simple.

No shit



That game did eat disturbing amounts of my time back in the day.  SC2 is alright, but for top to bottom clean perfection, I doubt BroodWar will ever be beat.

Fallout 3 was my come to Jesus moment.  I don't remember how many hours I had logged on that game, but I had to put the controller down and walk away from gaming for a loooooonng ass time.

When I realized I had over 40 hours of game play involved and was less than 25% done with just the primary mission I decided to stop before an intervention was required.

I got to be.. not terrible.. on the original SC. Could hold my own on Battlenet against the circle of friends I played with.

But join battle with any random Korean, not even Best Korean, and it was game over, man.

It's to the point that good players have their build orders down to the second.  If you're not paying attention, you'd be dead before you even have an army produced. I used to spend a couple of hours a day on that game.

I'll never get Blue Night in Seoul out of my head.

The amount of Korea vs US matches late at night in 1998 were awesome

I haven't played in years.


Bought SC2 when it came out, played that same day, haven't played since then.
