Starcraft is an old game for the computer.  but even tho, it is still a very good game.  u play as three different civilizations; Terran, humans.  Protoss, advanced aliens that rely on technology heavily.  and Zerg, aliens that are completly biological and use absolutly no robots at all.  u play in the campaign mode and go along with the story, which is not bad by the way.  however, it gets really hard in the last mission of the regular starcraft, where u have to destroy the overmind of the zerg.  then in brood war, the expansion set, the last mission is almost impossible.  the first time to beat it took me about 7 hours on that mission alone.  starcraft is a really hard game and involves deep strategic thinking in order to win.  overall, it is a great game.
