The Starcraft is the best yet among strategies. Of course it's just my opinion - there are many people who would disagree with me.
No matter what people say, Starcraft is number 1 in the top 100 chart. So, here is my Starcraft page, which includes general review, tactics, cheats and useful links
Graphical design
OK, sprites are good. What else? Graphical design of interface is great. All graphics is in the place and very useful. There is no bright, shouting palette - everything is dimmed and darkened. Game itself of course not dimmed and quiet!
Well, overall graphics in Starcraft had improved a lot since Warcraft II. Yet, game engine is not truly 3D - it doesn't have many innovative ideas.
I give graphics 4 1/2 out of 5
Sounds. Appropriate. All those weird sounds and explosions sound very good. Nothing more.
I give it 4 out of 5
The gameplay is very controversial - with single player mode on one side and multiplayer mode on another. Multiplayer is almost perfect - it's interesting to play either against or with human players. Support of Internet, modem and serial connection gives you a wide selection of ways to play against human players - one more plus for multiplayer. Once I was got sucked into one-on-one game for four hours (and it was just one game!).
Single player isn't as good. Game has quite good AI, but it still can not pretend to be smart. Sometimes you can destroy all computer's outposts and it won't react in any way. Single player missions are put together in some kind of plot - I have to say the plot is pretty good.
