Starcraft 2 - worth buying?

[Jester]

I feel that the exodus of Blizzard North happened for a reason, and that its effects are greater than most want to believe. Starcraft II is a very cool game: the graphics, the story, the experience and whatever, but it becomes almost a B-grade game if you compare it to what the first installment was in its time and it lacks, in a very subtle way, the basic elements that made the replayability an epic experience. Unfortunately, the effort of the company to widen the player base was painfully successful, at the expense of originality and legacy.

I'd suggest you to borrow the copy from a friend if you can, and play the single player campaign. Although SC2 is a good game, I wouldn't pay $60 to own it.

Shorter: Starcraft 2 would be worth buying, except Starcraft was excellent, so therefore it's not.
