After being disappointed with several of the newer games out (Mideival Total War 2, Neverwinter Nights 2), I re-purchased an old favorite. It's not fancy and the graphics are nothing special, but Starcraft is a solid, fun game. The AI is limited but sometimes I like to set it to "melee" (everyone against me) and see how many computer-players I can fend off. If you're looking for unsophisticated shoot-em-up fun, nothing's better than Starcraft for the price.

Whether you enjoy playing solo or going against other human beings online, Starcraft is one of the finest games you will ever find for either type of gameplay.
There are three races: the Terrans (or Earthlings), who look human and have human technology (such as infantry, tanks, land mines, nuclear missiles, fighter planes, etc), the Zerg, who resemble the creatures from the "Alien" movies (their technology is all biological. It is "grown" from seed-like workers. All of their buildings regenerate health. They are able to create huge armies of creatures with little resources) and the protoss (an extremely advanced alien race, which uses force fields and psychic energy to power up their units).
The game teaches you to manage resources, how to overcome obstacles and how to build a military base in such a way that it is both practical and defensible. Do any of these things incorrectly and your forces will be overrun. You will also need to learn how to deal with tight situations, such as when enemy infantry are suddenly dropped in the back corner of your base where you have few defenses. You have to deal with threats like this quickly before they tear your base apart.
The online play is fantastic. You can have up to 8 players battling it out, in huge 4vs4 matches, everyone vs everyone or you can have say 3 human players vs 5 computer opponents (or any combination).
I must have played over 2000 games online, and have become skilled in the use of all three races. I must say, however, that I still come across several players whos skill dwarfs my own. It's always challenging to play online, because there are so many skillful players.
If you're just browsing for a new game to check out, this one will not disappoint you. If anything, this is one which will addict you and draw you in for hundreds and perhaps thousands of hours.

We bought this one and WoW at the same time. This seems to be more kid-friendly with doable quests. I have seen him playing with several of his friends andd they all seem to enjoy it. Not overly graphic in the violence, and the instructions are very clear. This is just a review of observation, I haven't played the game, I just watched them playing and no one seemed bored or frustrated, which is the goal as far as I'm concerned.

Star craft is one of the all time best real time strategy games. even though it is lacking in graphics by todays standards the advantages such as only needing two resources needed to build anything and customizable maps are a major plus. The only disadvantage of the game is the races are not completely balanced. in my opinion, the protos are much superior than the terran. this is a great LAN game because of the minimal requirements, any recent computer will be able to run it.
