Summary: Starcraft Brood War is GREAT
Review: I thought that this game was soo good because they now have made the races more equal in power. The zerg have 2 new characters, 1 which is called a lurker and gets in the ground and attacks, I love that guy. The Protoss have 1 new warrior and the terran have 2 new units. I would definately buy this game if you are starting to get sick of the same old levels and characters from the original Starcraft. I would recomend this game to anyone that likes to play strategy war science fiction games like Command and Conquer, Age of Empires, and Warcraft. This is a defiante buy though if you have the original Starcraft. Thanks

Summary: Equalled The Races Too Much, But Still Great.
Review: An amazing expansion to an amazing game. The new troops were clever and fun to use. I did find that they 'equalled' the races out a bit too much though. Were each race was different in it's own respect before, now they had either a similar troop or a great counter against it. Also, due to patches to the online play, the Zerg were seriously crippled for online play (they slowed their creation from the hive to a crawl). As a result, I found too many weakness in all the other races, aside from Protoss.Still, when you have a hit game like that and all the fans want more maps more troops and more scenarios...how can you go wrong?

Summary: best add on of all time
Review: Fellow strategy gamers, I can't overstate how great this game is. I haven't been able to win all of it (I got through all the Protoss, all but the last Terran, and about half the Zerg campaigns), so it's pretty hard to win, but, my gosh, what style and character this things has. The AI remains the top in the gaming industry. The new units are very cool, but the campaigns are laid out in such fine, loving detail that the new units are only the third cherry on top of the icing of a ten-tiered cake (or something like that). What a game.

Summary: Sa-Weet Game
Review: If you know whats good for you then you have gotta get this game! Even if you aren't a fan or even own the original StarCraft then just get the Battle Chest. This has gotta be the most fun and addictive game I have played in years. Not since the original Quake came out have I been this addicted to a game. Most of the missions are cool but some of them will be too tough for "newbies". The multi-player is where this game will live on. I play on battle.net with my clan AT LEAST 2 hours a day! The game hooks you and keeps pulling you back for more! -Justin

Summary: Makes Starcraft Even BETTER!
Review: I have had Brood War for quite awhile and I have never gotten tired of it. I was starting to get a little bored with Starcraft until I got this expantion. For those of you that say they made zerg too weak, I think you are wrong. Even though it might seem as if protoss are too strong, they really aren't. In Starcraft, zerg was the strongest with long range shooters and useful spells. Protoss and terran were the weakest, especially protoss, fitting in with the plot perfectly. In Brood War, all of the races are evened out after the destruction of the overmind on Char. Some of the zerg's strongest units are counteracted with smaller ones of the other units. I must remind you, however, that the lurkur is a very powerful fighter, especially for defence. I couldn't count how many zealots I have lost from lurkurs. If you learn to use all of the races' advantages correctly, you will find the races are equal in strength. I suggest this expantion set to everyone. It adds many interesting plot twists and awesome new units. I have enjoyed it, and I know you will too.

Summary: GOOD, but..............
Review: I used to like Zerg so much with guardians and hydralisks, yes! But when I played BroodWar, look what happened! When I attacked Terran, those holy goliaths will shoot missiles and man! It seems that the perfect balance they had in StarCraft was blown away... Zerg became too weak 'cause the guardians are meat to corsairs, valkyries, and goliaths! And the devourers are really not too good... they lose to scouts... and also, the Protoss became WAY TOO strong with the corsairs and dark templars.... if you attack the Terran early(like5minutes)with a few dark templars, they'll die~..... also, if the corsairs kill all your overlords, man! YOU'D HATE IT! StarCraft seems to be more balanced 'cause now, it became Zerg<Terran<Protoss>Zerg, but it used to be Zerg>Terran>Protoss>Zerg~! But it's still the best~~!

Summary: This Is The Best!
Review: Starcraft Brood War is one of my favorites. The new addition to the Zerg army, the lurkers, make destroying your enemy more challenging. The dark archons are invisible and can controll other races like the Zerg or the Terran. Well, if you are a big internet gamer, this is the game you definitely want to buy.

Summary: dark archons are kings!
Review: brood war is so cool, i love it so much. the new units are very nice too: terran medics let me send out groups of people to explore without worrying about the average marine lifespan of 20 seconds. i personally think corsairs may have tipped the balance too much to the protoss' favor because a fleet of corsairs will simply suppress the enemy's defences (even bunkers); combine that with archons doing the assault---wow! dark archons are kings! my favourite trick is to convert basic enemy units eg scv/drone/probe and start building things---i have another race to control! now i can combine 2-3 races at once to take out the enemy. i find each race fit together as fighting units very effectively eg. corsairs+guardians+valkyrie enjoy!

Summary: The best expansion pack to date.
Review: How often have you gotten an "expansion pack" only to be rewarded with lackluster efforts from a development team that has simply moved on from the title? Brood War delivers almost an entirely new game for less than the original cost. As expansion packs go, this one is about as close to perfect as I've seen. In addition to ~30 new missions (with each of the three familiar races from StarCraft), you get more multiplayer maps and new units to explore and enjoy (roughly 2 per race). In addition to new units, many existing units have had their abilities enchanced or changed. Like StarCraft, you can jump into multiplayer on Battle.net and play with up to 8 humans/players. You can only use Brood War against other players who have Brood War (sorry! no mixing versions) -- so make sure your friends pick up a copy as well. If you liked StarCraft, there's simply no excuse not to own this.
