Summary: WCIII redefines strategy games
Review: This game is the best RTS game I have EVER played. Those of you who are uneasy about buying it due to WarCraft II, don't be. WarCraft III is nothing like WarCraft II. The entire system was redefined, enhanced, then redefined again.The gameplay is similar to WarCraft II and StarCraft, but in many ways is much superior.
1)The addition of RPG-like elements such as Heros makes the game much more challenging. You can have a giant army and no hero and still lose against someone who has a smaller army and a lvl 10 hero.
2)The races are VERY evenly balanced. EVERYTHING has an effective counter, the trick is to building the units required to counter faster than the other guy can tear apart your base.
3)Enhanced AI doesn't simply send enemies at you at programed intervals anymore like starcraft. Instead, it usually effectively counters your attack, again making the game much more interesting.
4)A small food limit seems like a bad thing, but it actually forces you to strategize instead of building a ton of guys. There is no such thing as an overwhelming force if you have the right units and can micro-manage efficiently.
5)The graphics and sound have been greatly improved. (and yes the units still say funny things if you click on them enough)
6)A completely different battle.net makes it much easier to play games. Instead of always playing with people who are 10x better or worse than you, you gain levels. Battle.net automatically pairs you with people of your own skill level based on your current level (which is based on your win/loss ratio). Its long and complicated to explain, and is not fool proof, but works quite well. The only downside to this game is its steep requirements for your PC. You will want to stay quite a bit above the minimum specs to get the most out of your gameplay, but I think its about time that games are being made for faster and better equipped PCs. BEWARE: if you are really into the starcraft and warcraft series, don't make the same mistake I did. Buy the collectors edition instead of this version as it comes with a cinematic DVD and a soundtrack CD.

Summary: Reign of Chaos Rules!
Review: This is a great game. You can cast all sorts of spells, including death spells, or lightning spells. This a great game for 2 or more people, because the multiplayer setting is cool. I reccomend it for Dungeons and Dragons fans.

Summary: Ok game
Review: Ok since everyone has stated many good aspects of this game, I will state my opions about some of the dissatisfied aspects: 1.Unlike Starcraft series, Warcraft iii does not have many defensive units. A single player cannot against an early rush. As a result, a)have your allies come to help you b)build many defence towers c)base gets destroyed and player leaves game. Many experienced players will choose a) since it will preserve ally forces and weaken the enemies.(also, the next rush will probably be taken the same place, so some preparations can be made). Players who choose b) are always trying to protect themselves(or make sure they are the last to die) but ignore the objective of winning the whole game. They will be lucky to have some experienced players along with them to win the game against some newbies. However,there will be ineffiecient military forces against the experienced since it is n v.s n-1. If there are no a) and b), players will usually end up in c), no help from allies nor have defence buildings against an early rush, which many have complained about. 2.There are many unbalanced (maybe just for me) aspects as well:
a)There are apparently more gold from Night Elves than any other races I've chosen since Night Evles uses only five wisps to mine gold and the units cost much less.
b)The most unbalanced units are sorceress and tanks from Humans:
i)Sorceress'polymorph can turn most of the units into sheep, and the only spell I know of to counter it is Dispel Magic(it is not autocast!!! and not many human players produce enough priests against it) With the help of some melee units from allies,two dozen sorceress can wipe out most of the enemies(no matter what furious beasts you have, they will be just turned into sheep and slaughtered.)
Adjustment:the timer for polymorph should be decreased from 60secs to 30-45secs.
ii)It is actully more effective to have tanks accompanied with melee forces in a map where bases are surrounded less trees. For example, one time I was playing a 4vs4 game, and we had about the same forces. When the enemies entered one of my allies' base, we teleported there and destroyed most of them with melee units and my two dozen sorceress except the twelve tanks left unharmed. They continued to destroy the remaining buildings and entered and destroyed mine so on.. We were jaw dropping seeing most of our buildings destroyed even though those tanks were casted "slow"(the official guide against tanks) and attacked by melee troops(kinghts, huntress ect) After more tanks and melee troops were sent, we lost the game! (altough we tried to struggle by sending all our units to rush one of the bases, we have no barracks ect.and no reinforcements thus unsuccessful)
Adjustment:tanks have really thick armors and high hp, either one of these has to be decreased to balance the game.The other effective counters are raiders and frost wyrms, but many will replace raiders with grunts combined with shamen or taurens and have not enough frost wyrms(they might be turned into sheep) against tanks. 3.There are many unnecessary units in Warcraft iii such as the kodo beast(never see one in a game), druid of the talon(sux both at ground and air but require second upgrade, can be replaced by others), meat wagon(used primarily to destroy trees and not effective), gyrocopter(usually destroyed by creeps) and mortar team(costs as much as a tank but does not have the ability to attack air, just to hear the slogan they yell to produce them). I'd give this game a 3.5-3.8 stars since there are not many new units for both humans and orcs, and the above statements.

Summary: Campaign is fun, all the rest is boring!! Don't get it!!!!
Review: Don't get me wrong on this game, it's pretty fun at the beginning when you are playing the campaign and the story is well laid out. This is Warcraft III reign of Chaos and they are making Warcraft III Frozen Throne right now. The graphics are good but you need a fast computer. I have multiple computers and tried using it on my 128 MB SDRAM and it slowed down when I had about 10 units. I used it on my 512 RAM computer and it runs smoothly no matter what. Pay attention to the system requirments. One hint is if you get this game, you can zoom in and zoom out while in gameplay and some people don't know that. The scrolling button on your mouse controls that function and 2 more buttons do on the keyboard but you go figure them. On battle.net which you can play people all over the world for free, it's kind of cool except the text. The font is SO SMALL, you can hardly see anything. I recommend you stick with Starcraft and Starcraft Broodwar. The graphics might not be better but battle.net rules on there. It might be an old game but A LOT of people still play it so please don't get this ... game and you can count on me when I say that!

Summary: The Game Known As Warcraft ^Out of five, this gets a 10!
Review: Warcraft--from the name of it, you can already figure out the concept; War. Warcraft 3, in which is superior to its past brethren, is by far the smoothest, strategic, enjoyable, and action packed game ever thought up. Stunning advanced graphics show you a wide environment, in which you can actually move the screen downward to get an extreme closeup view of a battle. You can fight with 4 races in this warcraft; The Strategic Elves, The Ruthless and Powerful Orcs, The Smart And Technological Humans, or the Horrorful and Bone Chilling Undead. Each race is provided with 3 special units called heroes, and a variety of buildings and other powerful units. The stunning terrain in which is layed out, blanketed by fog-of-war(The black part in which is unexplored), has so much detail, that you can see your unit's footprints. Even the designs on them! That's right. No footprints are the same. Plus, besides the amazing graphics, and mouth-watering gameplay, it comes with a level and scenario editor in which you can create your own advanced scenarios and even Intos! It is easy to learn and operate. Furthermore, I consider myself a satisfied customer. I bought the giant case thing that comes with the cd, dvd, coffe table book, and music cd, plus 4 cool posters. I play warcraft as much as I can, and reccomend this game to ANYBODY. Happy gaming :)
