Never had so much fun playing a RTS game before.
And there it was the battlechest for the original StarCraft 20$ on sale to celebrate the release of its sequel. And what do you know I had some money to spare and grabbed it. I installed the game and the expansion but was horrified by the blurry graphics, and nearly lost all hope until I found "ChaosLauncher" and application which lets you play the game in windowed mode and with much more crisp graphics, and yeah from then on I have been hooked to this RTS. It is mind blowing how simplistic this game seems at the very start, but then shows how deep the game play really is, and how balanced the three races are. Everything from ground units to various facilities this game has something for everyone who likes strategy games. I now understand why this game has for a long time been a cult classic, because it just is overly polished. Multiplayer is a blast, and creating custom maps is a snap, this game has a lot to offer, and if you see it grab it, your money will be spent wisely.
Now will anyone guess what game is going to be on my Christmas wish list!?
