    Anyone here still play it? I'm surprised so many people are on bnet playing it. It didn't ge tthe best reviews when it came out but now it's a classic! The 3 races are so different, whenever you get bored you can just swich your race and your no longer bored. Starcraft is a MUCH better game then Warcraft 3 in my opinion, could use a grapical overhaul tho ;)

    Super clasic.
    Haven't played it in a while.
    Great game, I think I'll have a go at it again, as I never did get to the end. Other games and such you know.

    always liked the 'toss more than the Zerg although when you're playing BW the Zerg do have a lot of early game advantages, however, if you can survive the first 5 - 10 minutes when you're 'toss you've got the advantage as the toss units in the later game are stronger when used wisely :)

    yea... I used to play it a damn lot :D

    Yea, terran have some good defensive stuff, toss are good, but you sorta get stuck in the middle waiting for your air mass, zerg are good if you can mass well but arnt as good in later game. It's still pretty balanced tho.

    I just re-installed it on my PC today...it's a classic! I spent WAY too much time playing this game (and Q3 heh) back in college. Ah, fun times. :)

    And SC runs GREAT on my old P3 733 / VooDoo 5500 systems.
    I have two of those old boxes set up just for "drop in" LAN partys.
    We have our favorite custom maps for 4 to 8 players.

    Last played SC on Saturday for 4 hours.

    When is SC2 coming out?

    Don't know about SC2 but you can try Atrox http://www.atrox.co.uk/ seems to be a StarCraft clone - even has three races almost the same!

    Well, I think I last heard that SC 2 is still in the "TBA" stage, as far as Blizzard is concerned - they chose to go the console route with Starcraft: Ghost (looks decent, but is a FPS):

    You can DL some of the sample video footage below:

    I loved watching the "Arclite Siege Tank Calldown Gameplay Movie."
    Called in a strike from the Seige Tank...heh, gotta love the art of "spotting." :)

    Would it be so hard for them to port that game to PC? I'm sure they will eventually. Either that or we'll all just end up playen it with emulators.
