6.7 billion stayed away from SC2?

What's the population of the Earth again?


E;2008) Earth - population est. 6,697,254,041 - or 6.7 billion, rounding up.

Would have liked to have seen some comparison stats on the sales.

boycott failed, and has only earned itself a footnote in SC history. the complaints are proving to be irrelevant as well.

Heh, I lold at that. Tbh its a good game, i just resent the changes they put forward. I would like to see this huge sale maybe inspire a company like s2 to make an rts game.

Storm, the complaints about lag, and inability to access 2/3 of the people playing online at one time aren't irrelevant tbh.

I've always said its a good game and has a chance for huge competition. Don't make it out like I'm against it persay. Just didn't want to buy it straight away in case it flopped. Probably in 2 weeks, could get it now but i need shoes.
