I wasn't too impressed with the Halo franchise either. =\
Starcraft, on the otherhand, is timeless.

I would like to know how you found out that all of Blizzard's data is false. If they're truly the lying heathens you somehow make them out to be, I'd be glad to believe you. Sadly, you've given me no other reason besides your spiteful rage. It may be hard to accept that one of your "enemies" is actually doing an awesome job, but it is how it is.

Even wiki says only 9.5 includeing (it's spelled 'including') the expansion.

If being popular = good why then does aol not have the 30 million customers it used to? Surely an ISP that good (ie popular) should not of lost 90+% of thier ('their', not 'thier') users. But they have. All these reality shows are very popular but are they any good. (It should be a question mark, not a period) No unless of course you a brainless moron or blizzard fan boy. Which are the same thing. So as usual YOUR WRONG (No, 'you're' wrong) but whats (another apostrophe here) new there. You blizzard fan boys are SO dumb you have negative IQ's.

Sure Bryant Again I'm going to belive a press release from a company I KNOW LIES about its sub numbers (Do you have any proof? Any at all?). You can't handle the TRUTH and that is wow DOES NOT HAVE 10 million paying subs (How do you know this?). Right so useing ('using') blizzard own finance records to prove its (another apostrophe here) does'nt (The apostrophe is after the 'n', not the 's') have the number of subs it claims is nothing. I suppose if your (again, it's 'you're') blizzard fan boy who can't handle the TRUTH (The only truth I can't handle is how epic your posts are) then yes it might appear that way. But to anyone with more than a couple of brain cells (not you that is) (Not you either, unfortunately, or so it would appear) Its (another apostrophe here) more than enough.

If anyone fails around here Rahja that would be you. I was'nt (The apostrophe is after the 'n', not the 's') impressed with halo at all. But then I have'nt (The apostrophe is after the 'n', not the 'e', you really need to fix this) an FPS fan/player in years. Last one I played was Doom2 Your (No need for the additional 'r' at the end of you) showed how little you know about RTS's when you said starcrap was good. Try playing a REAL RTS (Like your statements about Blizzard's financial inconsistencies, could you provide some proof?) and then you will see.

Anyway I've got better things to do, then argue with you bunch of morons. So I'm outa (It's 'out of', but if you're going to use the slang 'outta', you need an additional 't') here. Carry on your epic failing while I'm gone why don't you. (ok, we will)
It's hard to take you seriously at this point. So I'll simply point out your spelling errors while you make up lies about a respectable company and its merchandise.

huh, cute.

not that I'm disagreeing.

Nevertheless, Spike (amidst all the frothing) did mention a single valid point. Popular is not better, no question SC wins the popularity contest hands down but its neither an innovative or a particularly deep game.

Sure its got SOME depth as well as strategy but its strength lies in the way its particularly easy to pick up, hard to master as well as finely balanced.

I'm not going to get into a debate about this, personal preference is the deciding factor in any case. However a lot of people seem to just have latched onto SC ("first RTS i played ah the memories yadda yadda" etc) because it was popular and not because its "the best RTS ever".

Don't get me wrong its a good game, its a GREAT game. But strategy wise when compared to Homeworld, GC or M:TW ...its lacking.

oh yeah, this topic has been debated to DEATH btw (and my fav didn't even make it into the top10...hah)

Yep, I fail to see your point. See that corner? That is the idiot corner; go stand in it. There is no rebutle, I win by default because I am better then you. If you think differently, you're mistaken, because you are destined to be wrong in any argument against me or Starcraft. Oh, and you cannot spell, even if your life depended on it. Maybe use Firefox with spell check? Oh wait, you probably think IE is better. This further proves our point. You lose. Bye.
