Disadvantages: none

Stay away from this game if you don't want to get addicted to the single greatest strategy game on the computer of all time!

I started playing this game in 2003, and fell in love with it right from the start. The graphics aren't up to today's standards, but who really cares? The graphics and sound are both average, as well as the in-game movies.

There are three races to choose from in this game; Protoss, Terran, and Zerg. Each race has their own strengths and weaknesses, and you have to tailor your strategy accordingly. This creates a complex gameplay and helps keep you interested.

The campaign has a good story line. Not all missions are about building an army and killing the other opponent, some you have a certain amount of units and have to use them to survive. There is a campaign for all three races, and they are played in order to save the storyline.

The multiplayer is great, and it is free! battle.net is the host, and they do a great job at creating rooms and games. You can have buddy lists, private chats, and other neat features.

Overall this game is very complex and intricate. It takes some time to learn, and a lot to master, but it is well worth the ride! It comes with guides in the battle chest, and while some information is a little up to opinion, the information about the unit specs and tech trees is very informative.

Summary: The best game on PC
