It's just like Starcraft 1, the storyline is epic, massive replayability, a few choice improvements in gameplay and graphics
It's just like Starcraft 1, occasional gameplay glitches, why did it take 12 years
Starcraft 2 is an excellent single player and multiplayer real-time strategy game. There are a few niggles that stop it being perfect, but a heady combination of nostalgia, evolution and classic gameplay combine to produce one of the best games we've play...
Abstract: Blizzard Entertainment's science-fiction strategy epic "StarCraft" was one of the highlights of that year, and fans have been craving a sequel for a long time. Blizzard, however, has been busy, most notably with its blockbuster online game "World of ...
Abstract: Blizzard’s Starcraft game has one of the most loyal followings to date and 12-years later, the sequel to this gaming blockbuster has finally arrived. As opposed to Earth based real-time strategy (RTS) games such as Command & Conquer, Blizzard added a...
Abstract: We've been doing little else but playing StarCraft II since late Monday evening. Therefore, although you may spot a few fatigue-induced fumbles, what you're reading is the real deal - we've clocked the campaign, been thrashed online, and had a good cha...
Excellent cinematography and audio. An immersive singleplayer experience, within a dutifully realised setting. Care lavished on the details. Significant variety in missions. Extensive choice given to the player.
No LAN ability. A minor paradox of choice with the glut of units available in singleplayer. Multiplayer is not for the faint of heart.
Abstract: Blizzard knows games. They've been making them forever; much longer than their trio of epic licenses (StarCraft, WarCraft and Diablo) have been around. It seems that they haven't just evolved with videogames, but that they themselves have somehow been ...

Abstract: When Wings of Liberty launched in 2010, StarCraft fans rejoiced. Blizzards space RTS narrative would continue, and yet again, would take place over a trilogy of campaigns – one for each of the playable factions – just like in the very original game and ex...
At the end of the day Starcraft II delivers a riveting and highly enjoyable experience. The cinematics resulted in our mouths hanging open in awe, while the fast-paced online multiplayer will have you clicking away frantically. The entire campaign expe...
It's the StarCraft that players love; single-player campaign is fun even on its own; integrated Battle.net functionality.
A little too tied to Battle.net; No new innovations to the base gameplay mechanic.
StarCraft 2: Wings Of Liberty is hands down one of the best games currently available on the PC and Mac. It's essentially everything that made the first StarCraft such a popular game, but with so much added polish that it's practically shining. YO' MO...
