Indeed, ouch! But so worth it.
Well, perhaps that's mainly just casual couch potato playing rather than competitive gaming?
Oh really now?
Quite interesting. I mean a little badge is one thing, but this is like big....
How many games can you really make that way though?
If the sales are not good enough in the first one, forget about it. :P
OTOH, if it's a massive success, they will want to milk that cash cow...
Whether you like it or not, it is kind of controversial.
Anything that criticizes something heavily is always controversial :P
Much to the point at N4G...
There isn't even a Mac category. The author of this news item had to put it in PC :P
In terms of gaming, they are always trailing behind...
Gosh, it felt so close to release back in 2007 :P
KeSPA isn't their culture. SC is. SC is made by Blizzard.
Blizzard just want to be part of broadcasting what is already there, or get a foot in with SC2, broadcasting that.
Never cool to be left in the dark...

Lol, the bloodshed!
Oooh! Burn!
I still get surprised when I see people whine they don't have a key yet...
Lol, you are right. It's basically open beta!
A scantly (and weirdly) clad Gaga would not be wrong at all :)
Trying to think of something naughty to say, but you pretty much said it all :P
That does not wound like a bad idea at all!
