Blizzard Loves Money - Lance Icarus

It was announced over at Blizzcon that the game Starcraft 2 would be split into three seperate games, each game concentrating on one of the races. As you can imagine, some people aren't happy with this decision. It also doesn't help when your friends remind you that this isn't the end of it.

While most people are excited about Starcraft 2, I really couldn't care less about it. I've never really been big on RTS games. I'd rather farm to my heart's content than build command centers. I've been playing the new Harvest Moon game as much as I can and I've been enjoying every second of it. It isn't the best game in the series and I think they really missed and opportunity to use the Wiimote more, but the core game is still fun to play. The town feels alive with people going about their daily business, the stamina system has a good balance to it, mining is still fun, and Flower Bud Village's Elli makes an appearance. Every Harvest Moon fan has a favorite girl and Elli is mine. Come on, she makes cakes for a living! That's awesome!

Why am I so excited about this? There's probably something wrong with me, that's why. Hope to see you next week!
