At times like that, I am thankful that this is the Internet and I cannot actually physically reach people, because if I actually *SAW* somebody type that, I'd be hard-pressed NOT to throttle him to death with my bare hands.
I should immediately begin making plans to dispose of the body in case I ever run into this.
Besides, Total Annihilation is TOTALLY superior to Starcraft in nearly every way.

I agree.

I agree. For the record, I never said Starcraft was the best. I just said I had a soft spot for it.

I have a soft spot for sharp, pointy objects, too, but I'd still rather that people not test that.

No, I can understand that. As a game, it had a lot going for it. The user community...and actually the community for every Blizzard game, now that I think about it...was really not so good.

As a game, the most vivid image that sticks in my mind is a giant spacecraft being shot down by a little man with an assault rifle.
And the community of ANY Blizzard game is terrible, for one very simple reason: As a massmarket game, it'll have a massmarket community. Did I mention that 90% of such a community will be composed of smacktards?

I don't know...Blizzard's games (and especially their forums) seem to attract, for whatever reason, an exceptionally special kind of smacktard.
