Devil is Double is Deuce and Joker always trumps Deuce.

I've never played Starcraft, but I was looking forward to Starcraft: Ghost, but now it's future looks in doubt.

I play Lurker Defense occasionally. I don't play it as much as I used to, but I should. My name is-guess what-Baerdog7 on Battle.net.

noob (non-halo speaking so its legal right?) maps. no skill required. whoever wins is the guy who can horde fastest. I don't play online anymore because theres nobody good who plays on public servers. I play at LAN parties all the time tho. 3vs.3... one of each race on each team. it kicks ass. I'm always terran, and handle defenses for my team. the protoss handles airpower and vehicles (archons), and supplements my defensive strategies with dragoons. the zerg teamate provides hydralisks and zerglings en masse, as well as preventing enemy expansion by placing lurkers at key points such as choke locations and resource deposits, which I supplement with spider mines. it works perfectly, and we have several maps made specifically for this type of play. of course the other team divides the work differently, but its ablast, try it.

Actually, yeah, I do hate all the games you listed above. They might have been good in their day, but not only do they look bad now, but their incredibly boring and dull. Doom is considered a classic becasue it brought he FPS genre to the forefront of gaming, but man, if you've ever played it, you realize how ugly and boring it is. Of course, it's not fair to say that now, because naturally I'm comparing it to the games of today.

The last time I played starcraft (at least 2 years ago) I said to myself "Wow, does this game look bad!"
And personally, I think the gameplay stinks. Obviously millions of other people would disagree but I think it's boring. I'm not a big fan of RTS because they all involve pretty much the same thing: Build the biggest weapon and go blow people up. The classic RTS' like the original Warcraft and Command Conquer were great, but once every developer started doing it, it really got old fast.

And no, it isn't a referance to starcraft, it has something to do with something else, but I don't feel like pulling out the book and explaining.

okay i guess that makes sense. i personally lova all 'classics' and play them all the time. not singleplayer, but multiplayer. multiplayer for doom and marathon is addictive, and you can read my previous posts to see how much i enh\joy starcraft. while comparing modern games to classics isnt quite fair, but you shouldnt say gameplay stinks because its like everything else; remember these games invented gameplay, they are the standard.

You don't like popular maps, eh? That sounds like one of my friends. He doesn't like bands after they become popular. It doesn't really make sense to me, so maybe you could explain?

Anyway, in answer to the first dude's post: Yeah, I play StarCraft. The best RTS made by Blizzard, in my opinion. The Protoss are my favorite race, but I sometimes play Zerg.

i didnt say I don't like popular maps. I said i dont like BGH/MM because they suck. I also said i dont play online anymore because too many people put up BGH/MM so its easier for me to just go LAN.

Starcraft= Woot! I should make a show, called," Marines Say the Darndest Things."

"We gotta move"
"Jacked up and good to go"
"I love the smell of roasted Zergling in the morning"
"It says 'press any key', so uh...which ones the 'any' key?"
"Aw man!"
