WarCraft III: Reign of Chaos (PC)

I bought the game, watched the opening cut scene to sort it all out. Violently. And then, I pick up my battle-axe, sword, bow or putrid lump of rotted flesh and follow the legend of the Warcraft as what the millions of gamers all over the world would be. Warcraft III takes us back to the land of Azeroth and all the swords and sorcery to play with. Orcs, Elves, Dwarves, Humans and Undead all run amok trying to bash the snot out of each other.As I can see it, Warcraft is clearly not a game that strives for realism; rather it tries to bring the player into the world of Azeroth. Every unit, from the lowliest foot troop to the largest demon looks ready to dispense violent ...  Read the complete review

This game is a must buy for any gamer who enjoys a strategy game which relies on spotaneous decisions to outwit the enemy!

The single player campaign is great fun, some very good story lines and a lot of skills are picked up for the multiplayer action. The multiplayer provided by battle.net is what makes this game special. There is a ranking system, for each type ...  Read the complete review

I remember when this game first came out. I could not be happier, and the map creation kit, unlike it's Star Craft brother was immensely more powerful. With the ability to make your own units and even incorporate your own models, it was a slice of something else. It was the power of this kit that gave birth to a HUGE amount of entertaining and innovative online maps available now, and one of the reasons the game is still so strongly played online *that and it's a great game to play* The storyline for this game is fairly weak and cliche. Great forces of darkness show up at your door, vanquish them, the icon of salvation turns into an icon of destruction through ...  Read the complete review
