I don't agree, in my opinion Warcraft III has not much to offer in singleplayer besides nice graphics, and gameplay fun is quickly depleted, while playing on Battle-Net isn't much more than mindless hunting the opponent town and storming all your units into a almost chaotical mass battle.
I remember playing Warcraft 1 for much longer and more often than I ever played Warcraft III. It's only today that when there're games with great graphics one thinks they're all better than games of the past, but graphics is not everything, there's gamefun too.
[/b]
To sum up what this guy said:

Gameplay > Graphics

My all-time favourite was Warcraft 2, it was the first of the Warcraft series I was introduced to (I'm sure if I played Warcraft 1 first it would've been my favourite). Mind you, every game Blizzard has made has appealed to me in great ways (except the Diablo series, I never really liked the RPG stuff until WoW).

The reason why I liked Warcraft 2 the most was simply the fast game-play. It was fast-paced with strategic value. I only played Warcraft 1 the first time in 2003, mainly because I didn't do much searching/surfing on the web till then. I've played it, several hours, and worshiped it! It was the beginning of my favourite game series, it started it all. Relatively easy too, but, it has it's challenging factors.

Warcraft 3 was a great game, mainly for the leadup to WoW in storyline (though I admit I hated the idea of WoW before I really got into it, I'm not a big RPG fan - until now that is!).

The thing I find truly amazing is that Blizzard has always made top-sellers, and is still a standalone business not bought out by those fools at EA. Warcraft 1 may have been the best, but let me add that the others were excellent.

10/10 for all warcraft games!
Dune 2 is a great game also! I found it easier to play on Sega Megadrive though..

You might put your cheers for the warcraft games in the Community Reviews section. That's where the community can put their own game reviews... (that was hard!)

Starcraft-Broodwar is much much better. Especially in Multiplayer

i could only control just 1 unit at once which is kinda ridiculous. i end up using 1 deamon with orcs or 1 water-elemental with humans when playing this game. not one of my favorite games

I think you could click and drag to select several units... I'm pretty sure there was some way but it was long ago.

By keeping CTRL pressed, I think you can group up to 4 units at the same time...

... by drawing a square around them. Or you press SHIFT and click on each unit that you want to add to the group. Clicking on a unit in the group while holding SHIFT de-selects them from the group again.

Hello!
I don't think that someone will see this post but I try...
I wanted to play warcraft so I've downloaded it.
I really don't know dosbox but when I type install it doesn't work.
Actually there isn't any .exe called install in the folder.
I'm lost, so if someone read this help me please!
Thx
