Upon playing Starcraft, you can't help but be reminded of ALIENS and the like. It really brings me back to all those "post-apocalyptic/alien war" science fiction films of the period. What I REALLY love about Starcraft though, is the 80s SciFi vibe that it creates.

Unlike Warcraft, there is an actual plotline here, and it is wonderfully engaging - you'll find yourself speeding through levels just to see the next story development - and the action, interface, units (and overall game) are like nothing I've ever seen before, and make STARCRAFT superior to anything else in the field.

STARCRAFT is by far a more intelligent game than its BLIZZARD predecessor WARCRAFT - in both creative and technical terms. And STARCRAFT looked to contain more of the same strategic war gaming, so I tried it out.

Well, after a while, my brother somehow managed to introduce me to WARCRAFT, a game also from BLIZZARD, and I was hooked after almost a year of laughing it off. At first I was skeptical - one day my little brother came home with a copy of STARCRAFT - and I dismissed it as another stupid fad my brother had bought into.
