  • Ouch.  Sounds like Blizzard just gave Nihilistic the boot from SC:Ghost.  Ah well, looks like it'll be another year (if we're lucky) before we get to play this one....

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.
