Have not played on battle.net recently but i still think its one of the best strategy games ever. Hey, thats a good idea, i think i will play on battle.net again as soon as i get a decent connection going.

Agreed...i so prefer Starcraft to Warcraft 3 just because of the amount of strategy in Starcraft...By the way you dont need a shiney connection to play on battle.net i used to play on 56K no problem, well the only problem cam in hosting games so rather try join a game :)

Damn shame they never made an upgrade to this game, it had such potential :o I think when they introduced heroes in WC3 it took from the strategy as opposed to adding.

Yeh Starcraft WAS an awesome game - played through all the campaigns again about 2 years ago and started practicing PvP for a while
Then Blizzard had this brainwave - lets release a FPS starcraft and call it Ghost... aaaaaaargh... the pain. Personally I think they should have rather looked at releasing a much better SC2 - although a lot of folk were saying - yeh but it would be much like DoW, an perhaps there would have been similarities.
The introduction of heroes wouldn't necessarily have to be an unbalancing thing - SC had heroes - but no aura's or major effects - (DoW got the hero units right and balanced IMHO) also liked the squad and squad upgrade ideas... who knows maybe one day a janitor at blizzard will make a comment under his breath like - hey why dont you redo starcraft - and the powers that be will say "sounds like a fine idea" and flowers will bloom, and rainbows will appear and happy music etc etc.
I think at the moment Starcraft is still making them money and is still too popular - so why make a new one if you're still milking the old.

I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet but there is going to be a mod for Warcraft 3 to turn it into Starcraft @ http://www.wc3campaigns.net/revolution/
