"but then I heard some people saying things like incomplete so I have no idea whats going on, somebody enlighten me."
Some people (who haven't played the game) say it's incomplete because the original Starcraft had three campaigns for the three races, and Starcraft 2 only has one, for the Terrans (humans). But the one campaign Starcraft 2 is longer than all three of the first Starcraft campaigns combined, there is a ton of variety, and lasts about 15 hours. People are really just making things up about it being "incomplete".
This people dont like the fact that they get a incomplete campaign but be fair Starcraft is for the multiplayer that why its so popular just like halo there are so many player competitions are possible and so the game gets a competitive environment with tournaments where players can earn money. All the good multiplayer have that. You must build a online multiplayer around competition not for graphics and shit.
Precisely Stoney. Not to mention the campaign is downright awesome. I'm not a fan of RTS campaigns what so ever, I usually play a few missions then never touch it again. I've always played RTS games for the Multiplayer. But this campaign is absolutely fantastic so far, I'm about 4 hours in and every mission is totally unique. The story elements and dialog is also so well done. Just a top notch title, one of the best games this year no doubt.
Well, its just an opinion. However, lets face it, pc games are selling less and less these days unless it has a World of Warcraft stamp on it and its a BIG budget game. When the rubber meets the road, Blizzard has to make a buttload of cash to make Starcraft II profitable.
Yes, but pc is the only place its coming to, its been in development forever, and marketing has been insanely costly for the game. 1.8 mil on day one is fantastic, but sales need to keep up in the coming weeks and months for it to be a success and reviews like this aren't exactly helping those sales.
there's no reason to believe that reviews will affect sales of this game. it's a legacy. people are projecting 4-5 million day one in korea. that's a lot.
there's no reason why this game won't sell just as many if not more then any previous blizzard game.
I guess these people don't realize that each expansion is A FULL GAME! It's not like the little shitty campaign in SC1. Each game will have a full narrative (like 15 hours) for each race. So stop complaining and get a job.
Seriously with all the complaining, don't people care that we get an INSANELY HUGE STORY in SC2. I mean the terran campaign is as long as the first game!!! Doesn't this matter to anyone? I think it it amazing?!?!?!?!
just cause it has no lan, users can't take off nearly half a score. that's stupid

"The upshot: users who ranked the game using Amazon's scoring system gave it a so-so, average score of 2.8 out of 5 stars as of early Tuesday."
Right... Amazon users.
Dont know why I use N4G, just hit amazon, got your sales figures and reviews all in one handy place :/
everyone knows amazon users get worked up over every little thing
This always happens with user reviews. Just look at user ratings for games on Metacritic.
