Alex, good news on Starcraft....

Seems most on the first posters on the Usenet think that Starcraft is
"Warcraft 2 in space". Nothing particularly revolutionary/evolutionary. Some others liked it though. This will be good news for ATVI....Battlezone's star will shine that much brighter.

Tom, BZ has reviews on the inside
of the game box. They were all from
the european game mags, but they were
all very good.
I was hoping Starcraft would suck, but
Blizzard has never put out a bad game.
maybe people are tired of the War 2
type games?. I check Kali everyweek though,
and it seems there's still tons of people
playing War 2. This ceases to amaze me, i
was in a clan over a year ago,played War 2
to death, and am totally put off by the
RTS thing now.

Alex

There is only an age rating on the box. Bought battleZ for my son to evaluate. He ranks it as the best he ever played. On his advice I bought the stock. He plays hundreds of games and is a windows 98 beta tester. He is most critical of new games and would not hesitate to say one sux if that were so.
