I couldn't help but notice that i am not alone in playing starcraft broodwar on this forum (my own fault really), so, if it is under the rules, i would like to talk about it. Otherwise you can delete this whenever your on Nate (if it is under the rules maybe you should make a gaming section for the guild to talk about other games)
Starcraft Broodwar is a futuristic Real Time Strategy game made by Blizzard (makers of Warcraft and Diablo). Released in 1998, it is credited for redefining the genre as the first RTS to include 3 DISTINCT races. The expansion, Broodwar continued the story and added 6 new units (i think) to the game. It was so successful that an N64 version was made (in 2001 i think).
And NOW...Blizzard is releasing the long awaited sequel, Starcraft 2, sometime at the end of this year or the start of the next. It will continue the story and involve many new concepts such as units that can jump up cliffs or over impassible terrain, units that can change from air based to ground based, A ship that gets more powerful the longer it shoots at a target, monolithic Superweapons like the mighty Thor assault mech that is loaded with cannons, or the Protoss Mothership, which can cloak even buildings and boasts massive firepower.
Thats it for my review/preview of Starcraft(2). Any comments or questions post below.
