    @BigBigLArs Then i guess you can't connect to battle.net? I think that's obvious-.- And if you don't have internet, then you can play offline "As a guest"

    Looks good. Seems like they are adding lot's of new stuff. I will only play the campaign, and skirmish games against the CPU, so I won't see much of the new Battle.net

    Achievements... party system... facebook... lol what a bunch of unnecessary crap... The only thing here which is truly a plus is the Replay system... It sucks seeing all game companies nowadays spending so much time on this pathetic xbox 360 type community system.

    "To me it just seems that there expanding the WoW community into there other franchise games."

    They are doing that but i dont think thats a bad thing at all. WoW has a huge community and the best part of starcraft is the online capabilities. If they can make it as easy as possible for the community to grow i think thats a great thing to happen.

    it almost seem's at the end of the interview that there trying to make everything WoW oriented so that if your playing another game that they produced you can still find out what is going on in there "main Game Franchise, WoW." Could work both ways though, playing in WoW and want some 2v2's or run Hell difficulty DIII. To me it just seems that there expanding the WoW community into there other franchise games.

    Saw the thing live streamed, and it's not synced up right. The audio's about 10 seconds behind the video.

    Well I`m glad that they wont be charging a fee for Bnet. I haven`t heard otherwise from anything at blizzcon.

    They made sure you have to log in to play it so it is harder to pirate it.

    they should rename it barcraft cus its a bit like sitting in a bar waiting for a over pirced drink that look really fancy, everyone wants and yet you are still bloody waiting.

    Steam...

    Looks like they pasted a new GUI over Steam. I do like the addition of the "what I would really like to do" announcement while playing another game. That and the facebook/twitter integration are the only real improvements and would love to see Steam add those. Good ideas.

    Still, even if it is a copy/paste for the most part, it's a great, established system that works tremendously well. Best thing they could have done with battle.net, imo. Looking forward to playing. =)
