Average Rating:
Rating: - A must-have for all fans of RTS!!
The 3D graphics look great. The game balance is absolutely flawless (typical Blizzard-style). I have yet to play a game from Blizzard that has disappointed me.
This Battle Chest comes with the original WW3 plus the Frozen Throne expansion (both strategy guides are included as well, which are basically just detailed walkthroughs for the single-player missions, so they're somewhat superfluous).
Just the single-player component of these two games is enormous!! (54 missions combined + an intro campaign + a secret mission + a bonus campaign). That's likely to be 35-50 hours of game time just in Single Player! There's also, of course, the world-renowned, Battle.net multiplayer part, too, so this game has essentially infinite replayability.
Compared to other RTS games, the single-player chapters are truly immersive. The missions are incredibly different and unique from one another, so you never feel that you're doing the same old thing over and over again. When you play a new race (4 total - each with a completely unique unit and building set, economy style, and feel), new and more powerful units are introduced gradually throughout the campaign, so you're constantly adapting your strategy and devising new and devious methods to crush the opponent with each mission!
Rating: - Recent decent, wonderful backstory!
Any player of World of Warcraft should own this item or give it a shot simply because the entire explanation of how the World of Warcraft game got where it is. Why races sided with other races, where the hate and loathing comes from, and also explains the expansions for the game. The graphics and gameplay arent my favourite compared to other Warcraft/Starcraft titles, but the story is well worth it and there are worse strategy games out there.

i own the chinese version of this game. since everytime i play this game i have to use a loader to play, i just decided to buy the english version. well,i really love this game although i don't play it that much anymore, but i still want to have the full set just to collect it. i highly recommend this game to whoever likes games from Blizzard. :D
Rating: - Great game.
One of the greatest games ever, been playing it for a long time and still can't get sick of it. Bought again because I lost my serial number. Worth buying it.
Rating: - Beware This game is too good!!!!
Be aware this more just a game:
The single player version is a beautiful and very good strategy game with a superb story line. You don't want to stop playing when you started!
The scary part is online version: There are dozens of custom online games packed in this game and some of them are Extra addictive (Best example is Dota). I know many people who keep playing online version 2-3 "Days!" without sleeping!. This is not an exaggeration!
Bottom line: if you are a mature person buy this as this game as it is absolutely best strategy game made ever!
I do not recommend this game for kids, as without any doubt it's addictive side will cause a negative effect on their study ability.
- A must-have for all fans of RTS!!
- Recent decent, wonderful backstory!
