    korea is pretty much pay-to-play (or free if you maintain a WoW account) so you really can't count them anyways. still, this beat my own expectations. Consider that Halo 3 had one of the biggest launches in the world on a market that's generally larger than PC games sold "only" 2.3 million units... while starcraft hit 1.8 with a PC exclusive game (which almost all other companies don't bother with any more because they consider PC gaming "unprofitable"). amazing.

    That's pretty impressive. I am sad to say that I am not one of them thanks to blizzards sneaky tactics around their DRM.

    If you dislike a companies policies, then you are free to boycott their product.

    Some may consider that pathetic, but people have been called hypocritical when they play and complain.

    If you don't agree with the terms of the eula, you don't have to click the accept button. It's there because you have a choice.
