Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos

When I first saw the preview for Warcraft III I had to get it. But because of other movies and video games I did not get it until a few days ago. When I finally got it I bought the big collector's edition for fifty dollars. But the game itself is fifty dollars, so I suggest that you pick it up, because it is worth it. I like the new feature the hero. When you play with the hero it is like you are playing an RPG, you can pick up stuff and you can also gain levels with your hero. I also like the two new races that are provided for you. The wood elves and my new favorite race the undead. The undead are the coolsest race I mean necromancers, ghouls, and other powerful units. I also like the funny things your units saywhen you click on them, many of them are quotes from movies like when you click on a rifleman he says "This is my boomstick." from the movie army of darkness. He also says "Get in my belly." from Austin Powers. And when you click on knights they say "My favorite color is blue........no yellow!!!!!" from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. And he also says "I never say nee!!!" a referance from holy grail. If you like the warcraft title I suggest that you pick it up. I give Warcraft III a perfect 10/10.

Without any doubt, Warcraft: Reign of Chaos is one of the best (if not the best) real time strategies ever to be released in the world of video games. Now, I first heard the big hype among my friends, I didn't know what they were talking about. What is Warcraft? I acquired the game, and I was like "Oh… now I get it." And, I'll try to be calm, not to get in some hype regime or something… first of all… The story itself is really something new, I love a good story, and Warcraft offers you something new and improved. The idea itself is astonishing. The characters are great, they are really lovely. The truth is, when I heard about Warcraft: Reign of Chaos, I found out that this is a third game sequel, there were first two games, I have never seen them, and I am not that interested, because, this is, honestly a true Warcraft game. OK, now… There are 4 campaigns: Humans, Orcs, Elfs and Undead. Each and every one of them are done with such amazing excellence, that you don't know who's the best. Well, actually, you do, depends who you like the most. I love Undead for example, I also love Orcs, but I think that every race have something cool and special. Every race has a hero that leads armies to battles. Now, gameplay is easy and particular, it is really enjoyable. It is also spiced with great fun, when you are clicking on the character, well, when you click more times, he starts to talk some funny stuff, there's also some movie references, and others… Each character, I mean, each member of each race is done very good, very faithfully, it appeals to your pleasure in every way. Other things as sound effects and graphics are great, the intro and outro movies of each campaign is brilliant! Music score is sweet, sound effects are good… It's a lot of fun, a lot of surprises. My advice… play it.

Yet again, Blizzard makes a strive for another game worthy of the title, Game of the Year. Warcraft III: Reigh of Chaos places you back into their famous Warcraft Universe with a continuation of their excellent story. Gameplay is absolutely amazing, and is even better when played on their free Battle.net service. I highly recommend anyone and everyone pick up this gem of a game.

This is the best strategy game I have ever seen, maybe even the best game I have ever seen. It has got humour, a good and serious story, best graphics I have ever seen in a strategy game and a great game-play.

Instead of the two races, Orcs and Humans, which the previous games, to which this one is a sequel, there are now four races, which you can control. Next to the Human alliance and the Orcisch horde there are the Undead scourge and the Night elves sentinels to control. In the single player game you can not choose with which race you want to play, you will have to play them in a pre set order. The reason for that is that the story line unfolds through the four campaigns.

The story is great. It is told by in-game cinematics and pre rendered cinematics. The last are really great, you will find yourself watching them over and over again because of all the detail there can be found. These cinematics really bring the characters to life, which is something really special for a RTS.

Unlike many other strategy games it has got something completely new: they combined RTS with RPG. The player has control over one to three so-called heroes. In the beginning of the game these heroes are not very powerful but during the game get experience through fighting and will get stronger and get powerful spells which the player can choose and upgrade according to what he think is best. Also the player will find magical items through the game which the hero can use to become even more powerful.

This is also the first RTS that I play where I don't get the idea I'm playing on a map instead of in a world in Warcraft III the world is really amazing. In the world you can find beautiful city's, dark forests, thundering waterfalls, exotic wildlife and small villages of a lot of different strange and mysterious races, rain and snow pour down from the sky and day turns in to night along with all the consequences involved. This gives the feeling you are really fighting for a land instead of for a map.

There is another thing that is different from other RTS games and that is that the building has many units and overwhelm the enemy strategy is no longer possible because the amount of units you can build is reduced alot. So you have to really care about every single unit and make sure that no one dies.

My conclusion is that this is one of the best game ever made and I can't wait until the expansion set and the new Warcraft game (The World of Warcraft). I only want to advise players to set the difficulty level of the game on hard, this will make some of the levels really hard but else it is to easy and you will have finished the single player campaign before you are aware of it.

Warcraft Reign of Chaos = superb. Blizzard has made the game that beats the best games out.

Warcraft III RoC is the best RTS game i have ever played and i did not get tired of it. It captivates the experience that all RTS games should have. The campaign has at least 20 hours of non stop playable chapters that tells an awesome story of war between the humans, orcs, night elves and the undead. Even after those 20 hours you can play online against other people which is a great achievement of blizzard since warcraft 2. Each race has its own unique buildings that help the player achieve his/her goals.

I would recommend this to everyone and can only say one more thing, money well spent!

10/10
