Koreans Get StarCraft II For Free (to WoW Players)
The rest of the world would like this too, please.
Blizzard is giving away StarCraft II to Korean gamers for free – sorta. The deal is that those in Korea who have active World of Warcraft accounts will get access to the full version of StarCraft II.
According to IGN, Blizzard's Chris Sigaty described the announcement as "a way of giving something back to such a supportive and skilled community of players."
Blizzard won't need any help in boosting the popularity of StarCraft in Korea, but packing it in as part of a WoW subscription could do wonders for signups for the MMO.
The subscription option makes even more sense in light of the monthly, and even daily, pass models offered for StarCraft II.
Clearly, WoW gamers throughout the rest of the world are feeling quite jealous right now.

Don't pirate it, I mean it is such a good game I played and loved the beta, and can honestly say that whoever pirates this seriously does not deserve to play it. Blizzard spent so much time and effort working on the game I think it was 6 years, that they deserve your purchase.
I think what the article is FAILING to point out is that this will likely be a SUBSCRIPTION ACCESS to Starcraft 2, not a lifetime access license like we are familiar with over here. I suspect as long as your WoW acct is going you will have access to SC2 also.
I am a bit hurt I'm not getting this myself, but I'm already going to buy SC2 anyways, so see you July 27th everyone!
