It got an 8 outta 10 for me since i like the gameplay. The story line can be quite hard to follow since you have to use this computer but even it has quite a bit of ups. This game is great cause you can even advanced on your characters like the hydralisk to lurker combo.
Much of this game is great for people who are just entering a game like warcraft 3 or diablo 2 and this game could help give you some experience in the controls. I like the way they handled the controls for the PC but its at a major disadvantage to you if you have an iMac computer.
You kinda need the second mouse button in this game. The online play is awesome as you can also play games that have nothing to do with starcraft and make most of your time playing minigames. I have played wc3 and Diablo 2 so i can honestly say that this game is great for everyone either new or experienced.
THey used to have a ladder system to define where a person is but now that ladder system has gone down the tubes... I liked it cause then you could look at what type of opponent you were going against.
Negatives are pretty bad since you are limited to the air and ground. The water is there so why can't we have people who can swim... other things i don't like is the easily spotted glitches throughout the game like using a defiler to attack a building that is separated by water... the glitch with cloaked lings kinda disapointed me too.
The graphics were ok but they can do better and try to get it to a more 3d environment.
Sorry starcraft fans but i would say that you should buy this game only if your a newb to the gaming world of computers cause there are so many better ones.
