Rep Power: 0 | Actually, you CAN do this. Is it actually worth doing ? Heck no lol. I've had Star Craft actually run, but it's sooooo unbearably slow. Think about waiting 20 mins for an os + game to start, then it's not even playable. So, technically it can be done, but it's not very practical. |

Rep Power: 0 | I wouldnt say "ran" it lmao. Overall, I think the time was about 20 mins, but could have been more. That was the time just to load windows 98, and get to the menu screen on starcraft. I don't think it would have ran, it probably would have crashed out of memory. I MIGHT reload bochs, 98, and startcraft and snag a few screenies. It just won't be today lol. You are looking at about 4 hours of installing, configs, etc. Just to get it on there. |

There isnt any collision detection, among other things. Anyone with a little bit of Lua experience could make what they've "released".
And PLEASE quit linking to outside sources. Download the dang file, and upload it here. As long as it doesnt break any of the file rules, it should be posted here. |

Rep Power: 0 | This "team" of coders that have "released" starcraft for the PSP will never be able to pull it off. What they did in lua as a "release" anyone with minimal experience with that language could have done the exact same thing in an hour at the most. And more importantly, Blizzard wil lnever let them do it. Starcraft isn't open source and I don't think they would just sit back and let someone make a port of a game they own for a console without their permission, it just won't happen. They might eventually release a game like starcraft written in C, eventually. But it won't be starcraft. |
