    Game » consists of 11 releases. Released Apr 01, 1998

    StarCraft has been called the greatest real-time strategy game ever and it's certainly one of the most critically acclaimed. StarCraft features three powerful, yet balanced races: the Terrans, the Zerg, and the Protoss. You play as each race fights to the death for the fate of the universe.

    Same here dude. I did a FFA with 4 other people and built a whole bunch of stuff, but apparently it wasn't enough. 9 Battlecruisers killed me, my base, and my drive to play online for a couple of months.

    I felt the same way about Starcraft. I don't have SC2 myself but I did play the SC2 Beta as I got an invite.
     
    The second one currently blows its prequel away, especially since the prequel no longer has ranked leagues, but rather has a douchy elitist community that insults you constantly and has jerk game hosts who ban you from their games (literally) for having a 0 - 5 loss record online in unranked games. At least this is what I experienced playing it on the EU region server.

    @MB: Sorry, thought it would put in the SC forums and general discussion. @Ryax: My comp can't run SC2 so I haven't bought it.

    The second one is so similar to the first in general gameplay concepts that there's really no reason to play 1 except maybe the story.
