The BBC Covers StarCraft and South Korea
StarCraft, my precious. How many hours of my life did I devote to thee? It matters not. Unlike lesser games), I wouldn’t take that time back. Every moment with you was gaming bliss.
But my love is nothing compared with that of South Korea. South Korea is StarCraft crazy. The BBC recently did a documentary covering their obsession with computer games in general and StarCraft in particular. Listen for the StarCraft professional commentators — if you replaced ‘Zerglings’ with ‘Quarterbacks’ they could be talking about an (American) football game.
