SynopsisWarcraft III: Battle Chest gives you everything you need to enjoy the complete Warcraft III experience. This edition includes Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne expansion pack and the official BradyGames strategy guides for both titles. Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos takes place nearly fifteen years since the war between the orcs and humans ended. A darker shadow has recently fallen over the world, threatening to extinguish all life. The drums of war play upon the winds once again, rising urgently toward the inevitable hour when the skies will rain fire and the world will tremble before the coming of the Burning Legion. With four unique races, cutting-edge 3D animations and online support, you'll thrill to an intense and immersive fantasy experience. Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne is an expansion pack that revisits the war-torn world of Azeroth several months after the Burning Legion and the battle of Mount Hyjal. Are you ready for a complete Warcraft experience?

A great fantasy RTS game.
If you played WoW you might like this because it happens before it :)
The game is really great overall and sadly i can't describe it O_O
The game can also can be quite intense at times.
The game was 20$...(Sorry for those too late to buy it...)
I play on the US East server,add me if you want :)

Four words: Defence of the ancients. Not only is it an amazing UMS map that pits 5 players vs another 5 but no two games are similar. Everytime you get a new challenge and a totally new game. Replay value? This one has tons of it
What's great about it: Everything
What's not so great: Nothing

Well ok so right now the graphics are no longer "cutting edge" on this one but for the time they were pretty good. I love blizzard graphics and animation style but I have to say that the main selling points were never the graphics anyway. These games are hours of fun. You get 4 for less than the price of one. I love it and I think, if you are wrapped up in the whole WOW, world or if you just like a good game this is worth checking into.
What's great about it: You just have a blast playing it....
What's not so great: It leads to other addictive behaviors like WOW. :)

Buy this game if you are interested in the warcraft storyline, or want to start playing warcraft games. This comes with Warcraft 3, Warcraft 3 frozen throne, and the strategy guides to both games. The games are great and will provide hours of singleplayer fun, and an unlimited amount of online fun. And the strategy guides will help you get around and help you get the hang of the game.
What's great about it: great deal. 4 things in 1 pack. free online play (and singleplayer!)
What's not so great: outdated graphics.

With the 3 species there is a campaign for each of them. There is also an additional campain which I won't spoil. This is one of my favorite games to play because you can play by yourself or go online and play against others. No matter what you choose to do, you will have a blast playing this game.
What's great about it: So many features included so you will never get bored of this game.
What's not so great: Not to different from the rest of the Warcraft series

This is an awesome game. The campaign is simple, but it gives you something too do when your bored! I didnt like it, because I was so tempted too use the cheats :-). that is one of the reaons I like too play online custom games. you get too play all kinds of different versions of Mods. I personally love Footies and WMW (or any tower wars). you can create your own games host them also. this is a must buy!
What's great about it: Free online, easy too use and learn, lots of Mods for online, custom games, campaign
What's not so great: None!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have played this game for 5 years and still enjoy it every time I have the chance/time to play. I play the mod DotA... but have also played the campaigns as well. It is a very fun game with lots of replayability with several different races to choose from: undead, orcs, night elves, and humans. and there are modulations of the game that you can download on the internet (for free) and play with other friends... For example people have made a football game, soccer game, RPG's, other strategy games and more.
The original game is very fun as well. The graphics aren't that bad and it isn't too huge of a game (compared to the many gigs the newer games take up). This is definitely a hot game to get. The free online play to test your skill out is ideal too!
What's great about it: many mods (you can download to play) (e.g. tower defense, DotA, Footies, etc.), fun campaign, RTS is fun as well, & more
What's not so great: can't think of any...
I would recommend this to a friend!

As to live up to the name of the previously released "Crafts", WarCraft III:Reign of Chaos is absolutely spectacular! With greatly improved graphic and a newly renovated AI system, coupled with the vastly sophisticated World Edit that allows you to do almost anything you can put your mind to, WarCraft triumphantly returns to the shelves!
If you were into the previous WarCrafts, you will more than likely love this one. You see some familiar faces meet up with a cast of new ones as they desperately try to battle a most foul evil that is plaguing the lands. You'll have hours of non-stop action as you meet a multitude of races and use a ton of different items and triggers to progress. The graphics are awesome and the newly acquired freedom that comes with the renovated camera system just makes it perfect! As with most Battle Chests, this comes with the title release "Warcraft III" and the fitting expansion "Reign of Chaos". It also includes a pocket sized strategy guide to them both that comes in handy when you're in a clench.
Any fan of medieval strategy will no doubt love this game! I would highly recommend getting it!
What's great about it: Improved Graphics, Ability to Swivel and Zoom Camera, Special Characters Gain Levels and Carry Items, Great Story-Line..
What's not so great: The Game Eventual Comes to an End...
I would recommend this to a friend!
