WarCraft III: Reign of Chaos review:
3 stars (Amazing... but I'd rather have a game more like Starcraft.) - In a few ways Warcraft 3 is good, but I prefer more of a Starcraft type game. WC3 has better graphics by far, more strategy, and definetly much harder because of the addition of heroes.



Obviously WC3 has better graphics. It was released after Starcraft and produced by the same company, better graphics are expected. The games cinematic movies are amazing, the characters come to life through the lines and lines of programming. Even the graphics in the normal game play are quite good compared to any other game. You can see distinct features on each of the character models, and they are pretty impressive. The graphics are great but they dont *make* the game.



The game requires much more strategy, and this is its downfall. While Starcraft was easy to learn and easy to play WC3 requires so much attention and multi-tasking it is sickening. In SC you could beat down one and sometimes two people easily just by massing the basic unit and upgrading them. In this game, you've gotta get all the units because they benefit eachother, you need buffers, healers, damage dealers, everything! If you don't have one type of unit, and the enemy does you've got no chance and are going to be decimated. He'll walk all over you and since it takes so long to build an army after he destroys you on the battlefield he'll walk right into your base and "game over." Starcraft is much more easy-going when it comes to units. Having a specific type of unit such as a defiler to cast plague, or a high templar to cast psi storm can help immensely but its not absolutely necessary to have your victory. Not to mention if your armies are destroyed out in the map you can see what units the enemy has. By the time he gets to your base you could have a whole new army and in turn whipe out his forces.



Heroes in the game are, I admit, a cool feature. They give you a sense of power, and even look cool! The thing is they are actually much too significant in the game play. If for instance you're playing and you forget to level your hero up, all of a sudden your enemy comes charging into your base with a level 6 hero. You've got the same exact number of units and type of units, but he's gonna destroy you and win the game right there. The heroes are amazingly significant and they can easily change the battle. For me it's hard to manage my workers, build a variety of units, upgrade my units, upgrade my buildings, AND level up a hero all at once.



I admit the game is amazing looking, and if I could multi-task that good I wouldn't be complaining; I'd be playing the game. The game requires a great deal of concentration, and to me seems actually to be like work, which a video game should definetly not be.
4 stars (VERY GOOD GAME) - It's indeed a very good follow up of the previous warcraft a bit easier than previous warcraft but i recomend it, No Doubt!!! GOOD CHOICE!! Go ahead and buy it
5 stars (Game review) - When you get a new game, you will usually play or it for 3 days or if it's really good, maybe a month. However I think, Warcraft 3 can be one of the most addicting games of all. The only way you would not like this game is if you don't like challenging games or if you get bored easily. This game is an adventure; there are lots of battle's and violence. There is a whole story mode that can be won. The whole entire point of the game is to win battles and quests, the game is bloody, but not what you think. The blood looks very fake, so who ever is playing won't go crazy. You don't have to play Warcraft 1 or 2 to be able to play warcraft 3, it is your choice. The best part of the game I could play the whole entire game for a day if I could. I recommend this game for people to 11-20.
