THE GOOD:
Heroes are upgradable, graphics are stunning, repeated clicking voices are great, much fun, multiplayer is a blast, story is awesome.

THE BAD:
Only limited to 90 units, and there's a upkeep (or a tax) for your units.

SUMMARY:
Even though it's more expensive than Starcraft, and cheaper than World of Warcraft, it's a good solid RPG. Heroes gain levels(1-10) and can collect items to improve itself, or others around him/her. Units are fully detailed, and the strategy can become tiresome for the brain to try and survive.

There's four races, the Human alliance of Humans, Dwarves, and Elves. Fighting to be the ultimate race. The Undead also known as "The Scourge" trying to dominate the world with their master, and destroying everything in their path. The Orcs, who we're told to move to the west to escape "something horrible in the future" which you discover later. Powerful green-skined brutes who crush everything with their muscle,...

THE GOOD:
- Great Deep, Interesting Storyline
- Hero Implemented Into Melee Games
- Completely Revamped Unit Control System
- Adds Optional Quests
- Four Unique Races
- Avatars and Levels in Multiplayer
- A Real Sense of Strategy

SUMMARY:
WarCraft: Humans vs. Orcs and WarCraft II were completely dominant on the PC system for quite some time. With an interesting storyline, state-of-the-art graphics, and a fully-commited production team, Blizzard released one of the best strategy games of the 20th century. However, with their release of StarCraft and StarCraft: Brood War, it was likely that the Blizzard RTS franchise was going to be condemned to the 2D world forever.

Then, WarCraft III: Reign of Chaos was announced. Featuring a completely revamped unit control system, updated graphics, and a 3D environment, the game was, and still is, another Blizzard masterpiece.

Reign of Chaos follows the story of four races. The Human race...

THE GOOD:
Extremely detailed, incredible storyline, easy game handling, works on even a shitty computer like mine, exciting, and fun! (Basically, an amazing game)

THE BAD:
Not quite long enough, leaves you wanting more. The map editor is absolutely horrible and should be erased completely.

SUMMARY:
This game takes Warcraft 2 beyond past the next level. It is very logical to play and the missions are detailed, various, well written, and intense. The graphics are breathtaking when compared to the pathetic Warcraft 2. The biggest new addition is heroes; very powerful warriors that can grow in level and use special abilities. At last, there is something else for the game to revolve around. Also, there are artifacts and side missions to expand from the original "Defeat the opponent to win" deal. Worth every penny. I swear.

THE GOOD:
Plenty of Units to choose from
Play as Human, Orcs, Undead or Elves
Multiplayer is great fun

THE BAD:
AI appears to cheat in multiplayer games
Sheer number of spells available makes it difficult to try and use everything you want to

SUMMARY:
I bought this game after playing Warcraft II and hearing that this one was a massive improvement, and it didn't really disappoint me. There were plenty of units and spells to choose from and a good storyline to go along with the single player mode. The inclusion of 2 extra teams from Warcraft II only adds to the diversity of playing in multi-player. The vast number of things can be a downside though.

This game is played from an isometric perspective and although you can rotate the camera around I never really did it because I didn't find it that useful. In one player mode you play as Arthus on the human side. You have to play your way through the story mode in that and...

THE GOOD:
Good story; likeable characters; and nice epic background to it all.

THE BAD:
A little too short of a game; has major tendancy to lag during big battles (not just on my computer)

SUMMARY:
I bought this game because I had heard some good things about it, and it seemed interesting. I was proven correctly when I played it. It is a great story with cool characters to go with it.

It all started with the first WarCraft: Orcs and Humans. You would play as both Orcs and Humans (the latter being the final campaign) and basically you would battle against the opposite race till your mission was complete, well WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness was released, and it showed a great improvement from the first one, still Orcs vs. Humans.

Then, this game was released years later. It stands as an improvement to the other games, as now you were able to play as four races: The Humans, the Undead, the Night Elves, and the Orcs. Of course it...

THE GOOD:
The battle system, good ol War Craft building and killing, characters, and side battles

THE BAD:
Annoying voices whenever you click on a soilder or character, blocky graphics, and to short of story..

SUMMARY:
War Craft 3...ahhh I remember back in the day of playing War Craft 2 for the PS..it was fun, and now they advance into this game? Great game, I loved playing this game, to bad it was only for the PC not PS2. Anyway...the good and the bad...starting with the good... The battleing in this game was fun, I like going to war with undead, elves, and the others. Building up your town and creating a army to rid the other player or AI of their army..fun fun. Now to the bad parts, the story was good and all, but I wish they would of made it longer... the voices of the soilder or...

Gameplay:

Much better then the first and second ones, and way longer as well, This game took me ages to finish. Another Good thing about the Gameplay is it Challenging, This game is not easy to beat like the other 2 games.

Graphics:

A massive Improvement in this game was the graphics, especialy with the spells and magic, all the sprites are much more detailed, very impressive.

Sound:

Again another improvement to this game from the last 2, the sounds were great. Great sound effects from the magic and the weapon battles.

THE GOOD:
The game has great sound,Graphics,gameplay,Storyline,characher...This game even gos on line and u can fight it out with ur friends and people all around the world

THE BAD:
The only thing i find bad is that the game make cant fuly stop the player from cheating, other hen that this GAME IS GREAT

SUMMARY:
This is one of the hottest games I have played this whole year - superb graphics and a soundtrack by NIN make this a great action romp. Some other users have diss'd the game cuz they say it's too short, or it doesn't have enough weapons.... forget what they say, cuz the game is freaking HARD, and the weapons that you have access to require some serious skill to really master, so all in all the game is tuff to beat, and not at all suitable for pansies. Two thumbs way up!

THE GOOD:
Lots and unit selection and great graphics

SUMMARY:
Well looks like I can finally write this review up after playing so much.

Units-
The selection of units in the game is pretty good, all the races have a nice amount of ranged, seige, melee, and flying(except the orcs) units, theres always one unit to counter another. Each race's heros have a lot of great skills to help kill off your enemy's army.

Buildings-
Each race has their own buildings, and each fits along with them perfectly, the humans have meidevil-like buildings, the un-dead have dark and evil buildings, orcs have primative looking buildings, and Night Elves have trees which can up-root to fight an enemy, the only problem is that the human tower defense it often to strong, a cannon tower can blow a few guys to pieces like nothing

On-line gaming-
Battle.net offers players with a lot of options, they can play a normal style game with other...

THE GOOD:
Seems like blizzard has once outdone itself again. Flawless graphics and more units along with 2 extra races. With more units and spells along with 2 extra races you can combine your forces and find out the best groupe for you or the best "horde". Internet head to head combat or allied action is added fun. With the Heros being able to pick up items and level up along with cast powerful spells this game is 1 in a million.

THE BAD:
Should have done it better by doing...when you make a account you pick a race and a hero and you play with that hero and level him up like diablo 2 but you add units to him for more power.

SUMMARY:
Perfect and with the unit book that is avalible to the users it gives the stats and tips and such so you can look at them and compare them. Along with the expansion thats comming up should prove to be one of the best games blizzard has mastered.
Hint: Buzz going around STarcraft II and Diablo III are comming,...
