Starcraft II Wings of Liberty：Best Game of The Month

Starcraft II is a real time strategy (RTS) game where you can pick 3 different races, each with different units. Darko, who was the person who’s view you were watching through, was playing Terran, the human race, and Dusan was playing Protoss, the high-tech alien race. The 3rd race is Zerg, which is the alien beast race.

Each race has it’s own advantages. Darko showed you Terran’s special ability, which is making his buildings lift off. He also mentioned chronoboosting which is Protoss’s special ability. A chronoboost speeds things up like building units and researching things. It’s useful and can be used from the Nexus which is the building that’s used for collecting resources and making probes. The zerg’s advantage is that you can build large armies really quickly since each hatchery produces larvae, and each larvae can turn into 1 or several creatures, meaning you can build units really quickly.

In Starcraft II, the goal is to build and army that can destroy the enemy army, and destroy the enemy base. You can surrender to end the game quicker when you know you’re going to lose, but Darko was stubborn and thought he could get away.

Each race has something that builds their units, something that upgrades them, things that unlock new units, some way of detecting cloaking and a building that makes the workers. Basically, if the enemy can destroy all your workers and your building that makes the workers, you’re screwed and might as well surrender, unless you have enough of a army left to destroy the enemy army and their base.

Starcraft II also has a great campaign. Unlike the first game, there’s only 1 campaign focused around Terran. I personally loved the campaign and it’s cinematics, as well as the story.

The campaign is a continuation of the campaign from the first game, and even if you haven’t played the first game, I think you’ll still enjoy the campaign. But if you find yourself getting confused, then it’s always beneficial to read the back story, which can be conveniently found here: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/game/lore/story-so-far/1.

In further news, Starcraft II is going to have it’s first expansion, Heart of the Swarm. It has some new units and stuff, but the biggest thing is the new campaign. Where the Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty campaign ended, the Heart of the Swarm continues, except from the point of view of the Zerg, with Kerrigan as their leader. I’m excited for this since I think the Starcraft II campaign was amazing so far, and I want to know what happens next.

Well, that’s all I really have to say about that game. It’s available for 60 Canadian dollars at pretty much any store that sells video games. Unlike World of Warcraft though, it’s a one-time purchase, which I think is soooooooo much better then WoW’s 50 dollars every 2 months
