    Bah. It'll still be available when it finally gets released. I'm not gonna spend a dime until I find out about this stupid DRM. I played lots of LAN games in the past and in places where internet wasn't readily availble, at least not for four or five people simultaneously.

    No clue. It'll be released when it's done. But they have announced the special edition.

    My sentiments with the article, this sounds like Activision stepping in.

    But an account with Blizzard.net doesn't seem too bad. But if have to be constantly connected to do the campaign will suck since I only like campaigns in RTS games. Not a fan of online RTS.
