REVIEW
Fantastic! First of all...I love this game.
The video graphicsintroducing each segment are incredible and the plot is frankly spectacular.
I would recommend this to everyone that has the time to play it. Please note...this can be very addictive if not managed correctly. :)
Warcraft III: Reign Of Chaos is an impressive real time strategy game where you build, attack & destroy in a darker world. Visit the interactive 3D fantasy world of Azeroth, setting of the first two Warcraft games. It is 15 years after the war between humans and orcs. While mankind grew soft and complacent, the orcs were regrouping. The drums of war are beating again -- the Burning legion is coming and with it they bring terror and destruction. Do what you must to stop the death of your world.
REVIEW
warcraft 2 was better you play a couple "tutorial" scenarios with the orcs...then you get to play the whiny human prince. the prince turns bad, and you get to play him again for the undead scenarios. i stopped playing shortly after the undead scenarios started, i had enough of the whiny emo prince.
other then that, the hero system was ok, could have been so much more, made me a little disappointed. turned into just an average game with a poor story and cast.

REVIEW
Great game, not as hard as EQ, more relaxing played Everquest for about 9 years, loved it but it becomes frustrating trying to continuously level and buy new adds. Finally gave up trying to keep up, it was like trying to get yourself out of quicksand al the time.
WOW is refreshing, raising tradeskills isnt that easy as well as leveling but its wayyy better than EQ as well as rare lag and NO zoning issues..
I rate WOW now, BETTER than EQ !!!

REVIEW
Great Gameplay, Best RTS game ever This is the best RTS game I've played, but I gave it 4 stars because it's a 10 yr old game with rather crude production values and I hated the ending of Brood War. I didn't feel like I got the kind of payoff I wanted for completing 60 freaking missions. There wasn't really any conclusion. I liked the end of the Protoss campaign in Brood War much better. Also I don't like the artists that Blizzard uses. Their 3d computer art is weird and retarded. The gameplay is the best thing about it. It'll keep youplaying for hours and hours. I heard a Korean died from playing it too long. I definitely give the gameplay 5 stars. There are 60 missions total, and each one takes hours to complete, sometimes a day. Some of the missions are very hard, especially in Brood War. I used strategy tips to help me complete some of the hardest missions, because I have other things to do besides spend all my time playing star craft. Well I'm glad I'm finally done with it and I look forward to Starcraft II, the videos of which look breathtaking.
Amazon.com ReviewThe Diablo Battle Chest is the complete Diablo saga in one box. It includes Diablo, Diablo II (the fastest-selling PC game of all time), the Diablo II: Lord of Destruction expansion pack, and the official Diablo II strategy guide from BradyGames. The combined retail value of everything in the Diablo Battle Chest is more than $70.
The Diablo Battle Chest makes the perfect gift for someone new to the action-RPG phenomenon, or for the hard-core Diablo fan that wants the complete series in one big collectible box.
REVIEW
Diablo 2 A fun game that requires much clicking and time. Drawback are the graphics. buy this is your looking for a classic rpg game. no monthly fees is great also for online play.
Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne takes you into a vast new chapter in the epic Warcraft universe. You'll revisit the war-torn world of Azeroth where several months have passed since Archimonde and the Burning Legion were defeated at the battle of Mount Hyjal. But now a new threat has arisen throughout the land and it is up to you to navigate this extraordinary land full of elves, orcs, humans and other amazing creatures.
REVIEW
The GREATEST expansion set ever made! Frozen throne is so good that it is actually better than the game it expands Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos. With the new characters and the focus on Arthus and the Lich King you are enthrawled in awesome story telling and fantastic game play. The ending is just jaw dropping awesome and could be one of the best ending of any video game ever made. Thank God Blizzard is finally going to finish the story line in the up coming expansion pack to World of Warcraft called, "Wrath of the Lich King" due out in 2008. Play this game if you want to learn the mythos of World of Warcraft, and play this game if you want to experience of the greatest PC video games ever made! You can still buy it at Wal-Mart or Target and 1,000's of people still play the multiplayer even 5 years later.
