Summary
A Blizzard Hit!
The Good
Almost everything, including-
Graphics- Well, okay, these could have been nicer, but they're pretty good on their own. I still like to watch little Protoss Dragoons drown in their own liquid!
Sound- It's kind of repetitive, but it's fun to hear each unit respond as you click it, and it's cool how if you select multiple units, the highest ranked one responds.
Gameplay- Playing the single-player campaign is fun, but NOTHING beats Blizzard's Battle.Net. Its reasonably easy to get used to, if a unit isn't available, it quickly explains why, and the first mission in single-player campaigns is completely tutorial.
Replay Value- 73 out of 10. This game has so many maps it isn't funny, and if you go onto Battle.Net (for a one-time setup fee of- FREE excluding regular ISP costs) there's new maps coming out every day, even now! And if you're tired of playing classic games, go to use map settings for awesome games like Sunken Defense and my own Fast and Free build!
Controls- They're easy with a mouse. Add some hotkeys, and a five-year-old could play!
The Bad
Barely anything, but if I have to point something out, I guess it gets a little repetitive. It's always (at least in my case) build a bunch of units, attack, get killed, go back to step one. Then again, I'm not a great player, I'm just a fan...
The Bottom Line
Blizzard strikes again! This game is really a great one. If you liked Command & Conquer, you'll love this. The fact that it has THREE sides (Zerg- bug-like things, Protoss- Advanced Aliens, and Terran- Humans) and one of the sides (Protoss) has mind control abilities and the ability to call a group of units from anywhere to a certain spot instantly, and the ability to cloak anything around it (uh-oh, I'm revealing too many of my secrets...) makes it a GREAT game, that I recommend to everyone!
