Starcraft 2 - worth buying?

Given the lack of time so far, the custom maps are alone worth the admission price, and they've been getting better by the day. There's RPG's, Tower Defenses, Arenas, Movies(!), Card Games and more are being made, all without having to pay a monthly fee.

Diggin it,

I'm going to have to say that I'm pretty much with Frag on this. The game runs beautifully at high settings on my 18-month old computer, it has replayability, and choices on what you can do. I'm currently re-playing the campaign on hard, mixing in some multiplayer, and dabbling with the AI to refine my builds for multiplayer, and peeking at custom games when I have time. Of course, I'm back to work now, so I don't have the time I had for a while. For $60, I'm going to get a LOT of entertainment out of this. Far more than dumping $60 on a movie, a meal, or drinks at the bar. (It's easy to dump $60 on something when you have 4 kids to take along to said movie or restaurant. What $60 is to you may not be the same, I understand.)

The internet-registration issue? To me, it's not even an issue. I have 12 Mbit internet+wireless in the house, and I don't like laptops for gaming. Since I play WoW, too, I'm hooked to the 'net all the time, and my ISP is reliable as they can be. YMMV. I've worked in IT for 10 years, and I've seen similar schemes before for business software, so I guess it's not so 'far-out' for me.
