Keepers is a weekly segment in which I discuss games I’ve played that I’ve seen fit to keep after playing. I generally sell a game that I’ve finished, so the only reason I keep one is because I plan to replay the game some day. Classifying a game as a “keeper” is generally a badge of merit.<\/em><\/p>\n

Starcraft 2 is coming out soon, and I’ll be picking up a copy on day one. To prepare, I’d decided to go back and replay the single-player campaign in the original Starcraft. Again. But wait – what about Warcraft? No – not the MMO, I mean the other game that everyone has forgotten about – the RTS. Warcraft III.<\/p>\n

It really is a great game – I’m replaying it now. I’ve finished the human and undead campaigns, and I’m in the midst of the orc campaign. I’ll admit that it’s not quite as good as Starcraft – few games are – but it’s a lot of fun despite its age. I love necromancers and meat wagons. I love Kodo beasts. I love planting mines. I love uprooting Elven structures. I only wish they’d included ships like in Warcraft 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
