Evening Reading

Sadly, the 1.2 patch for StarCraft II has been pushed until next week. As soon as it goes live, expect a #shacknews chat room on Battle.net for organizing Shack matches and custom games.

Also, anyone interested in looking at SC2 statistics, build orders, win percentages, APM, and a ton more should go ahead and grab SC2Gears. This program doesn't interact with SC2 at all and runs completely off of replays. It will also autosave and rename your replays when it sees them pop-up in the SC2 folder.

It can also be used to easily upload replays, like so! I will never get tired of writing ER posts about SC2. Deal with it.

Does anyone remember a game where you crashlanded on an alien planet and started with nothing but a flashlight? You could explore and pick up batteries and stuff during the day, but at night it got cold so you had to light a fire and hide from horrible killer aliens. You found more equipment as the game progressed, like a gun and probably other things.

My friend and I are trying to think what it was but are coming up with nothing. Any ideas?
