#26: StarCraft/Brood War (PC)
Release Date: April 1, 1998

I grew up watching my friends play Blizzard games like WarCraft II and Diablo... and I was always intrigued by these "computer games" that seemed so complicated and high-tech compared to the games on my Sega Genesis. Well, when my family finally bought a computer that could play games, I went right ahead and bought StarCraft for myself, to finally play a Blizzard game. I started playing as a boy, but I finished playing as a man... and StarCraft showed me the greatness of Blizzard, and the greatness of RTS games. I've spent hundreds of hours with StarCraft and it's expansion Brood War, playing the campaign numerous times and playing more custom games than I can count. My friends and I would spend entire nights searching for awesome online custom games to play (still remember playing StarCraft Paintball...), and we always had a blast... no matter how many times we played. StarCraft started something special... and I've come to love the company and its games ever since.

Race of choice: Zerg (Spawn more Overlords!)
Favorite Unit: Lurker

I've been considering getting StarCraft Anthology from the Blizzard Store, but I'm still on the fence because I'm rather mediocre at most RTS games. On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate the campaign in terms of difficulty? With 1 being as hard as, say, Reign of Chaos, and 10 being as hard as the Orc campaign in Beyond the Dark Portal?

I've also been meaning to buy Diablo I & II, but just haven't gotten around to it.

The StarCraft missions range from very easy (build a supply depot and 10 marines) to medium-high difficulty but the missions in Brood War can get really hard, especially the last Zerg Mission.
