The DS does seem made for RTS games, doesn't it? |

from the looks of that video, the player couldn't seem to click fast enough for a beginning peon split or for real micro later in the game if he was really playing. It's more for novelty than anything else as anyone wanting to win is still going to prefer a mouse. It's like the mouse+keyboard vs console controller for fps's, the mouse is just too useful. |

Well, the thing is, they just used a program that translated your touch as movements from the mouse. If the game was actually designed for a touch screen, I'd imagine the setup would be a lot less clunky and the game more sensitive. |

ya, but even if they optimized it, I still think the mouse player would have a definite advantage. |

Obviously. And the keyboard gives all those hotkeys, which immensely speed up micro. However, I'd still purchase SC if it came onto the DS unless it got ~3.0 reviews. And if it used WiFi to connect to battle.net? Taht's just pure pwnage. |

That guy phails at the game, but I guess it's an interesting concept. I'd take touching the screen over touching a pad anyday. ~ Kovu |

I'd take touching the pad and winning over touching a screen and losing any day. |
