No prob, should be good tonight, my missus is out

It's the same for me, worst thing is when you're playing a game, and she comes and tries to hold a conversation with you.

Her: you're playing a video game nothing important
Him: you're playing a video game, and it's a crucial moment and you require all your mental energy to crush this terran cheesing £$$£!

Of course 'her' doesn't understand why you're upset when/if you lose

My wife likes the look of Starcraft. She's currently reading through the comic books I picked up on Ebay.
Maybe I can get her to try a skirmish at some point. Wonder how that would go

 

[CaptainRAVE]

I always get kicked off for the sims

 

[RobotXander]

I'm still scared of multiplayer....what a wimp

Trying to get through the Challenges (at Gold), "Opening Gambit" is proving annoying :/ Best is 3:30~ of so, need 4:00 or better for Gold. Even more annoying is that it's at "Normal" speed.

 

[kar]

Oh normal speed is evil.

I think it's a bit funny that 'faster' is the normal speed. And normal speed is positively 'abnormal'.

 

[chokedoke]

Yeah my first multiplayer game where the speed settings went to normal was a bit of s shock, so wasnt prepared for the change in tempo

Yeah, in my first Bronze match last night I had just lauched an attack on a Protoss base only to have an arm thrust in my face asking if her "skin smelt good". Went frickin' mental as my Marauders & Marines got mashed.

That won't happen again.

The Single Player is awesome, really enjoying it at the moment. Some epic music, hope they release the soundtrack.

They have, it was in the collectors edition

Sure battle.net was live? Has happened before to me and it turned out that battle.net had died while I was ingame.

How are you finding the game?

The best trial I ever did, although I didn't even use it in the end . Absolutely loving it.

Arf, typical .

 

[platypus]

Sometimes the achievements are a bit wack if bnet is flaking out

Ah, bugger.

Aye, at first I thought it would be a waste of money (soundtracks are usually quite lame). But SC2's soundtrack is epic. Glad I got my CE when I did, have seen them upwards of £100 now. Hell, have seen the USB stick going for £30 on the bay . Not that I would part with any of my stuff

 

[RDM]

Ah, bugger.

It is also available on iTunes.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

By the time the expansions come out, this thread is gonna be huge!

 

[Indie]

where did the funky sigs come from? must have!

Click on them

They are quite cool I must admit and I am tempted!

Shame this website cuts off the end.

 

[kar]

Yeah it truncates the width of the sig images.

They need to change it!
