 A Classic RTS April 2, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Although I didn't really have a chance to play Warcraft that much, if at all, when it was in its hayday I have recently rediscovered this classic and have found msyself becoming addicted. Warcaft 2, much like the previous installment in the series, is a real-time strategy game in which you must chose to play as either the orcs or the humans in a bid to become ruler of the land and in this sequel, the seas and oceans. The gameplay may seem simple at first, especially to gamers who are used to more modern games. However, once you move past the first couple of stages, the game does begin to challange the player with a mixture of maintaing a city and trying to acomplish a set of objectives. While several other games have worked with this concept, few have ever perfected like Blizzard did with the original Warcraft games. Also, what makes picking up the Battle.net edition worth it is that you get both Warcraft 2 and you also get it's expansion pack on one disc. The game also has the option of free multiplayer, but have yet to try this option out. So, whether your looking for a bit of nestolgic gameplay or just looking for an alternative to the repetive nature of today's games, give Warcraft 2 a try.
Great RTS Game February 27, 2008

I don't own this game, but have played it in school. I haven't played the campaign missions, but have played multiplayer almost everyday for 2 months. The graphics are dated, but that isn't where the fun is. For me it is the fast paced-ness of the game that keeps me hooked. Unlike most RTSs I have played, each misson doesn't have to take an hour and a half to complete. If you know how to build, it can take you 5 minutes to defeat a game aginst a single computer opponent. You can also build crazily, and go like that, or you can develop a strategy and either way, you stand a chance of winning.
My suggestion for those just starting: 1 build your hall and 4 or five farms while cranking out peons/pesants like crazy. Then build 3 barracks and make another town near another gold mine. Don't stop building peons unless you are running out of money.
Waecraft 2 an AMAZING game! August 5, 2006

I havent played this game in 6 years and Im trying to get it again although I have Warcraft 3 I love Warcraft 2 more and I can't find it but that won't stop me from getting it. That's how much I love Warcraft 2 and that's how good it is. My favourite part of this game is the Battle net. because your not playing against dumb old computers but some skilled players. That's why I love Warcraft 2 Battle net. aside from the trash talk. I would suggest highly getting this game because you don't know what your missing! seriously.
One of my all time favorite RTS games ever April 28, 2005

Although Warcraft 3 and its expansion have come out within the last few years, I still prefer Warcraft 2 a bit more. Yes the game looks kinda dated now, but it is still a blast to play. The game was fun in that it never got too complicated or anything so that newcomers could always have a good time. The map editor was easy to use and the online play in the Battle.net edition will keep you busy for a while. Anyways, if you've only played Warcraft 3 then it might be difficult for you to enjoy this game since it is so old, but if your willing to look past the graphics then you'll find a real gem.
