You Want a Piece of Me Boy?

If you are an RTS (real time strategy) fan by now you would heard of the grim news of Blizzard just recently confirmed that there will be no LAN (local area networking) game mode in StarCraft 2. This was confirmed in a interview with Rob Pardo, senior Vice President (VP) of game design at Blizzard Entertainment. Rob Pardo stated:

"We don’t have any plans to support LAN,” he said and clarified “we will not support it.” The only multiplayer available will be on Battle.net... and that is because of the planned technology to be incorporated into Battle.net.”

Well d'oh, any gamer who has even the slightest sense of logic would know the real reason of it is as above mentioned in the comic, what more of cold and calculated RTS pro fans. Truth to be told, they have all the rights to do so, but in our opinion let us just say stating other reasons being the cause of it is just plain lame.
