Starcraft is one of the greatest strategy games out there, even today. The unique and powerful engine for each race adds infinitely to the playability, and the different combinations really make the game a nice experience. If you get tired of the plain melee mode, there's a new genre in Use Map Settings games that have so many more types of games, from remakes of the melee to RPGs to new classical games, as well as the traditional Bunker Wars and Golems massing games. To me, the game never seems to get old, although I've had to rebuy it a total of three times before because I lost the disk or the key, but it's well worth the money. The graphics are beautiful for a 2d game, and it seems Blizzard is doing all it can to keep the game lasting, which is a great thing.As a side note, I beleive Blizzard announced that Starcraft II was going to be a 2d game. I could be mistaken, but it's wonderful news, as the beautiful views of Starcraft were a pleasure to my eyes, and Warcraft III's graphics looked blocky and unimaginative in my opinion.
