Starcraft, a legendary RPG game
StarCraft is a military science fiction real-time strategy video game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment and released for Microsoft Windows on March 31, 1998. The game later spawned a franchise, and is the first game of the StarCraft series. Work on the game started shortly after Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness's release in 1995. StarCraft debuted at the 1996 E3, where it was unfavorably compared to Warcraft II; as a result, the project was entirely overhauled and then showcased to public in early 1997, receiving a far more positive response.
Set in a fictitious timeline during the Earth's 25th century, the game revolves around three species fighting for dominance in a distant part of the Milky Way galaxy known as the Koprulu Sector: the Terrans, humans exiled from Earth skilled at adapting to any situation; the Zerg, a race of insectoid aliens in pursuit of genetic perfection, obsessed with assimilating other races; and the Protoss, a humanoid species with advanced technology and psionic abilities, attempting to preserve their civilization and strict philosophical way of living from the Zerg.
Many of the industry's journalists have praised StarCraft as one of the best and most important video games of all time, and for having raised the bar for developing real-time strategy games. With more than 11 million copies sold worldwide as of February 2009, StarCraft is one of the best-selling games for the personal computer. Over 12 years later, a sequel, StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, was released in July 2010.
Alright guys this really is a legendary game. I first heard of it in about 2000 I think when my brother played it alot. It was probably n1 game in that time (HOMM the best ofc). We played Starcraft in school in an computer class in a free time. My favorite unit here is protoss. Why? I don't know they do have powerful units and the worst for me is Zerg. Why? Because they are disgusting (the way they multiply) and I don't play well with them. This was my opinion about this game, share yours with us!
