Star Craft II first impressions


I got a computer that isn't necessarily made to handle gaming. I mean I have a decent graphics card that's outdated. It can handle World of Warcraft with no problems and older games. But when it comes to newer games it tends to fall short. So that's why I didn't run out and pick up StarCraft II. I knew it was meant for beefed up computers. I heard that the game came with a guest pass, that allowed a friend to download the full game and play for 7 in game hours. Luckily i had a friend who got the special edition and got like 3 guest passes so he gave me one.

After about a 4 hour download and a 15 minute install i fired up the game. I was surprised on how well it handled the game. I didn't really have any issues playing the campaign. But I'm really liking it so far. It has a lot of variety in each missions, and the in between stuff you can do, like go around the ship interact with people, upgrade your units. I also like how a little bit into the game you can chose how to branch out on the missions. I haven't even tried the online portion yet. Seriously thinking of getting this game.
