LEC vents Steam – old (and some not-so-old) releases on Valve’s Content Delivery System

StarCraft 2 will not feature LAN play. In other news – South Korea explodes!!!

In a fit of almost parity with the other madness going on in the gaming industry at the moment (following Valve *potentially* re-negging on the non-existent agreement to upgrade L4D4Free and Epic abandoning the PC for console lulz), Blizzard have announced that StarCraft 2 (sequel to probably the best selling RTS of the 20th century […]
