Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos

Blizzard created some of the most memorable games in history and with Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos it looks like it that they can add another classic to their already fantastic list of games.

Warcraft 3 has all the elements a good game needs these days. Those being

1. Great graphics 2. Fantastic Gameplay 3. A story that could even outclass the big hollywood productions and 4. lots and lots of humor.

Warcraft 3: RoC takes us back to the lands of lordearon and tells you the tale of an ongoing battle between the forces of the human alliance, the orcish horde, the undead scourge and the mystical night elves.

If you liked the movie "Lord of the Ring" and the fantasy genre in general, you will love this game and the story it tells.

In my opinion, Blizzard has raised the standards of Real Time Strategy games once again with Warcraft 3. If you are into games, you simply must have this one in your collection.

All I have left to say is...

Thank you Blizzard for once again living up to my expectations and surpassing them, keep up the good work.

Blizzard makes an amazing comeback for the WarCraft series with Reign of Chaos. It is one of the most intense and adventerous games I've ever played. I just hope they come out with something as good for the StarCraft series. I'm going to enjoy this!

Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos is an unforgettable classic in the real-time strategy (RTS) genre that retains its charm even after many years. This game is steeped in legendary status and has rightfully earned its reputation as a true classic among RTS games.

First and foremost, it's worth mentioning that despite its age, the game still looks good. The graphics, which were impressive back in 2002, remain visually appealing and continue to complement the gameplay. The developers managed to create a mystical and picturesque world that instantly immerses you in its captivating adventures. The vibrant landscapes, the architectural style of the buildings, and the unique designs of each race make the world of Azeroth feel alive and enchanting.

However, Warcraft 3 stands out not only for its graphics. The game boasts an engaging and thrilling story that keeps you on edge throughout. The narrative unfolds in an immersive world where heroes from different races engage in epic battles for control over Azeroth. Each character has a unique backstory, and the plot twists will leave you eager to keep playing. The depth of the storyline, combined with its masterful pacing, creates an experience that's hard to put down.

The gameplay also deserves special recognition. The developers have simplified controls, making them intuitive and easy to learn. You'll quickly master all the necessary commands, allowing you to focus on the main elements-strategic planning and tactics. The balance between resource management, base-building, and army composition provides a deep and satisfying gameplay loop, while the addition of powerful heroes with unique abilities adds a layer of RPG-like progression that sets it apart from other RTS games.

One of the game's strongest aspects is the inclusion of hero characters. These heroes not only serve as powerful units in battle but also as a core part of your strategy. Each hero gains experience, levels up, and acquires new abilities, making them integral to your success in both single-player campaigns and multiplayer matches. Their abilities and the choices you make while developing them have a significant impact on the flow of the game, which adds a great deal of depth to the overall experience.

Speaking of the story, the single-player campaign is a true highlight of Warcraft 3. Each race-humans, orcs, night elves, and the undead-has its own distinct campaign, and each one builds on the overarching plot that leads to an epic conclusion. The campaign is filled with memorable characters and cinematic cutscenes that give the story a grand sense of scale. The voice acting and storytelling are top-notch, drawing players deeper into the world and making them care about the fates of the characters.

Multiplayer is another major strength of Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos. The game's online mode has been a staple of the competitive RTS scene for years, with players honing their skills and competing in intense matches. The balance between the different races, the tactical depth, and the variety of strategies that can be employed make multiplayer matches thrilling and rewarding. Whether you're playing with friends or testing your mettle against others online, the competitive nature of Warcraft 3's multiplayer ensures countless hours of enjoyment.

Additionally, Warcraft 3's modding community has made a significant impact on the game's legacy. Players have created custom maps, scenarios, and even entire new games using the game's powerful map editor. This has led to the development of many unique game modes and genres, including the now-popular MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) genre, which originated from a Warcraft 3 mod. The creativity of the community has helped to extend the game's longevity and has ensured that it remains a relevant and beloved title even after decades.

Overall, Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos remains one of the best RTS games of its generation. It is a masterpiece that has stood the test of time. Whether you're new to the strategy genre or a seasoned veteran, this game offers endless enjoyment and unforgettable moments. From its deep and captivating story to its challenging and satisfying gameplay, Warcraft 3 is a must-play for anyone who appreciates real-time strategy. It's a classic that continues to inspire new generations of players, leaving an indelible mark on gaming history.

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.

Of course there are tons of reviews on the gaming sites But as I was recently surprised to find a review of a game here on IMDB I felt compelled to put my two cents in on this work of art.

I am a 38 year old PC gamer with the reflexes to show it. That said I also have the depth of thought that may be more common in that age neiborhood as well. This game while taking you bye the hand and leading you gemtelly into it, realy kicks into high gear after the fourth mission of each of the four campains. It goes from ok to enthrawling right about then. At least that has been the case with the first two campains. But just drop yourself into a multi-playerfor about 30 minutes and you have a differant beast entirely. God awfully intrancing. And when you get your rear chewed off you can save the replay and watch not only your play in slow or fast motion but from the perspective of all the players that kicked your assets. So you end up with deep fast learning all around. So even loosing is fun.

Notice I referred to this peice as art. I wasn't only talking about the 3-D or the artificial intelligence, the voice talents are top notch. This is money well spent. User created singleplayer and more importantly muti-player action will be going strong on this title for several years to come.
