Starcraft: Ready to Roll!

by kjell1979 kjell1979 is a Lead on Epinions in Games, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Feb 11 '04
Pros: Great balanced gameplay, free online play though battle.net, great campaign editor
Cons: Battle.net service prone to hacking, unit selection
Grades? Who needs good grades? It was my freshman year in college when Blizzard released Starcraft. Let the record show that my GPA after my freshman year was a 2.33 in a school where the only 4 grades you can get are A, B, C, and NR (for no ...

Starcraft - Do you feel crafty? Well, do ya, punk?

by Rock_On Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jan 05 '04
Pros: gameplay is outstanding, replay, graphics
Cons: hackers online
Starcraft. The very definition of addiction. Starcraft is one of Blizzard Software’s older games (released around 1998), yet it still remains as one of Blizzard’s greatest, and the whole Real Time Strategy (RTS) genre’s finest. I wasn’t really ...

Starcraft puts hungry RTS fanatics in virtual heaven

by Shampoo-Girl Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 28 '01
Pros: Awesome online multiplayer mode. Incredibly addictive due to high replay value.
Cons: Dated graphics.
It's commonly believed that the console gaming market is currently ruled by RPGs in the same way the RTS genre presides over the less popular but equally deserving PC frontier. Blizzard, to the PC gaming world is probably what Squaresoft is to many of us...

The 'Zerg' Are Kinda Like The Taliban, Ever Notice That?

by xeno3998 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jan 01 '02
Pros: osama
Cons: yo momma
Note: Don't expect pages of explanation (filler) on the question posed in my title; it's called "humor".

I was never too keen on multiplayer online games before playing Blizzard's Starcraft. Sour experiences with Diablo 2 and...

My Name is Rodeo7 and I'm a StarCraft -a-holic

by rodeo7 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 20 '01
Pros: Award-winning, Fun, Replayable, Relatively Easy to learn, Free BattleNet access.
Cons: Addicting.
StarCraft may have been released three years ago (March '98) by Blizzard (makers of Diablo and WarCaft) but it is still a very popular and very fun game to play. StarCraft has won 31 awards including PC Data's "Number One Selling PC Game of 1998"....

One of the greatest RTS games ever.

by mjordan2nd , May 14 '06
Pros: Gameplay never gets old Variety of strategies to use Great multiplayer
Cons: Addictive Somewhat predictable AI Some rush strategies employed by people in multiplayer
Starcraft is the best RTS I have played ever, and I have plenty of experience playing various RTS games. I bought Starcraft reluctantly on a recommendation of a friend, but it has been one of my best investments in any game ever, as it has brought ...

The defining game of the RTS genre!!!

by awoeonip , Apr 13 '05
Pros: Extremely well balanced races, fun to play, and addicting
Cons: Limited resolution, inconsistant online community
Where do I begin when reviewing a game like this. Starcraft began as a successor to Blizzard's immensely popular Warcraft series. However, the original production of Starcraft looked clumsy and uninspired and was often jeered at as "Warcraft in Space". ...

Starcraft: Heavyweight Champion of the RTS World

by Slusy Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jul 01 '01
Pros: Engaging story, easy to pick up, but hard to put down
Cons: Repetitive music, a few minor control issues
In 1998, Blizzard released Starcraft. And there was much rejoicing. Today, it's still the game of choice among RTS aficionados. Other real-time strategy games have come and gone in that period of time, and the only one to even come close to taking the...

This game rocks! (Idiotic write-off)

by fallenjesusboy , Aug 17 '01
Pros: Trains rule! Blow up all the bugs!
Cons: Zergs and protons are lame. Don't play them!
This review is part of Biggs219's "Idiotic" write-off. The point is to write in a "weird, stupid sort of fashion", and to "just make an idiot out of yourself", but to still "write a decent review" on "some form of media entertainment,...

RTS the way it ought to be.

by ozarkfarm , Feb 20 '03
Pros: Highest quality storyline, addictive gameplay, and exciting missions.
Cons: None.
A few years ago when a friend of mine gave me Starcraft I had never played a RTS (real-time strategy) game before. Up until that point I was content to sit at the controls of a WWI vintage fighter plane and punch German fighter pilot’s tickets for...

The Craft of a great computer game...

by srb3000 , Aug 03 '01
Pros: Excellent gameplay. Great story that fits in good with the game. Best strategy game ever.
Cons: The graphics are acceptable but are declining as todays games increase in realism.
Strategy games have come a long way in the computer gaming industry. Many remember when games used to be in 2d. The 2d strategy games really had no point and did not catch the eye of the gamer. It wasn’t until around the early to mid 90s when 3d...

"You Wanna Piece of Me, Boy?"

by c_squared_smm , Jun 06 '02
Pros: Excellent gameplay, excellent balancing, excellent sound, excellent story. Need I go on?
Cons: Larger land units can be quite stupid about pathfinding.
StarCraft. A game for the ages. That’s the only way to describe StarCraft.
Unfortunately, simply saying “a game for the ages” won’t do. I have to provide details. So, if you find that the first description lacks something, read on.

Become the legend in the world of starcraft!

by vrana007 , Sep 07 '06
Pros: interesting story, three completely different races, need a bit of thinking
Cons: addictive, only last two or three missions in every campaign present a real challenge
What is all about? Well, starcraft is a rather old game (actually, this game was made in last millennium), but I never grew tired of it. It is like Red Alert, you can actually play it and play it and play it. Another plus are custom games and a map ...

Crafty use of the Star theme

by apoeze , Jun 02 '01
Pros: Easy to get into, balance, editor, campaigns, polished.
Cons: A little old, dark/colour limited graphics.
Background
I have been a heavy strategy gamer and tend to prefer the slow but sure type of game and have no qualms with micromanagement.

I have played all the Blizzard games.

Pros: Great Replay Value, Multiplayer, Unit Selection..
Cons: Mediocre Graphics..
Introduction

Brilliant. Beautiful. Amazing. Awesome. Just a few of the words I would use to describe Blizzard’s blockbuster real time strategy games, Starcraft. This game puts you in one of three races – Terran, Protoss, or Zerg. Each...
