Nexus put it poorly, but Chunky's correct. Starcraft's three races are the Space Marines, Genestealers/Tyranids, and Eldar/Dark Eldar from the Warhammer franchise (or the "series" Nexus was referring to). Starcraft is a good game, balanced, but not innovative (see WC1&2).

I don't give a shit if your comment is 6 months old, but just how fucking stupid are you Nexus? Starcraft was one of the fist RTS ever and without it Dawn of War wouldn't even exist. Go google things before you spew out retarded shit.

It would be more accurate (possibly) to say that Starcraft borrowed heavily from the Franchise Dawn of War is based on, Warhammer 40000. A table top war game that has existed since 1987.

Shut the fuck up, nexus. Seriously. According to wikipedia, Dawn of War was released by THQ on September 20, 2004 in North America. Starcraft was released for Microsoft Windows on 31 March 1998. So, Starcraft cannot possibly be a ripoff of the dawn of war series. Fuck off and eat shit for breakfast.

This game was really crap. It felt like first one.
Dawn of war II at least try something different and unique gameplay. SC is nothing but a rip off from Dawn of war series game.

Hmmm. I have been playing SC1 again, and its a fun game. What really was needed was something a little fresh, and way better graphics. Sounds like they did this so I AM PLEASED. If it an't broke....
Also, ultralisks burrowing? COOL! Maybe they can't move while burrow, while others will be able too.

I personally have few problems with the current SC2 build. The basic idea of the reaper is far-fetched, but the terrans needed to be more versatile, and reapers seem like they would be fun to use, should you get into the beta. The graphics arent perfect but they do the concepts justice and look fine

I was lucky enough to get in the beta, and yes, it is just the original starcraft with new units and visuals. That being said, IT'S STARCRAFT. Even if it's not as good as SC1, it's starcraft, people.
Also, the physics and unit interactions are about 5x better than they were before.
