Summary: Blizzard outdoes itself
Review: Starcraft is the ultimate real-time strategy game. In a world of games that lose their appeal within a year of release, Starcraft keeps bringing players back. Blizzard Entertainment is known for its excellent RTS-type games such as the Warcraft series, but the company's high water mark is Starcraft. The set-up is that a long lost space colony of humans finds itself in mortal conflict with two alien races, the Zerg (nasty reptiles) and Protoss (ancient psionic warriors). The game allows you to play all three races in turn, and revolves around the collection of resources to buy more units, buildings and technological improvements as you try to fulfill mission objectives. As we've come to expect from Blizzard, the gameplay itself is superb - intuitive interface, interesting units that complement each other in interesting ways, and graphics that are adequate even if they are showing their age. In my opinion, the balance between the three races is as close to perfection of any game I've played. Each race is utterly distinct and requires completely different strategies to play, but none has an obvious advantage over the others. But where the game really goes over the top is in the storyline. Blizzard is NOT known for great plots. For example, the Warcraft III storyline has some unbelievable plot twists that have to be overlooked to keep playing. In contrast, Starcraft has an absorbing plotline that flows seamlessly throughout the single player campaign and actually made me gasp in astonishment a few times, which has never happened since in an RTS. I assume that any fan of real-time strategy computer games already has this one. If you have any interest at all in RTS, get this game. If you passionately hate RTS, Starcraft is the best bet to change your mind.

Summary: Great Game With Easy Online Play I Hope This Review Helps
Review: Starcraft was made by the same team that made warcraft, and it shows. But instead of the same old game with a different look Starcraft really distinguishes itself as the standard for space-based RTS games. The graphics look great, the main plotline's well written, the soundtrack is top-notch, a great game.
Two thumbs up!

Summary: Starcraft: THE BEST PC GAME EVER
Review: This game I got three years ago, and I still play it. No game I've ever gotten has had my attention for that long. The most for any other game has been a few months, but anyway. Starcraft is based around three races in another galaxy, the Terran, or human, the Protoss, and Zerg. I won't go into their history and specifics and stuff. That's all in the instruction manual. This game is all around superior. Single-player mode itself is excellent, providing hours and hours of fun real-time strategy as you try to defeat the skilled AI in 30 different missions, 10 missions for each race. In multiplayer mode, you can get onto battle.net where you can play regular starcraft against other people, or play map setting games people have created in the campaign editor that comes with the starcraft game. Some of these maps people make are amazing, ranging from things such as escaping a volcano to completing obstacle courses, all made using starcraft. The storyline is great as well. All in all this makes a great game that anyone should consider getting. You'll have very little disappointments, guarenteed. But even if you still don't like it, you can't sue me for that.
