They are definitely not straying far from their roots, but considering that Starcraft is still insanely popular in other nations such as South Korea and Peru, this is not surprsing.

I’m probably not going to be buying Starcraft II. That could change, I suppose, depending on the strength of the multiplayer side of things, but I still prefer more modern titles like Dawn of War and Company of Heroes.
