Warcraft II and Diablo were the games that put Blizzard on the map and subsequently helped create the monster that is World of Warcraft. Now, instead of paying monthly fees for a glorified chatroom or hopelessly trying to get a free WoW trial, why not play a free online web based version of Warcraft? Why not indeed. Just click here and expect a fine little RTS somewhere between the original Warcraft and Warcraft II.

ReplyDeleteHehe... :)
ReplyDeleteGuess I will just stay on the .NET just a bit longer today ;)
ReplyDeleteBe my guest dear Munkey. Slay away...
ReplyDeleteWarcraft II was one of my favorite RTS games. Hell it's still good.
ReplyDeleteWe can only hope Warcraft 4 will be your new favorite RTS, provided Blizzard stops the WoW obsessive madness...
ReplyDeleteI remember my strategy in the orginal warcraft was to sacrifice a few of my orc warriors by sending them into an enemy's town and then send in a bunch of necromancers to raise the dead.
ReplyDeleteThe site of so MANY skeletons sacking a town destroying EVERYTHING in sight while the towns defenders helplessly cast useless spells and raised weapons only to fall to the sheer numbers of my swarm was really the first feeling of true satisfaction I had while playing a game.
Ok I have to try that web based warcraft out!
Just don't expect something THAT memorable dear Caleb... It's a fine but simple online RTS...
ReplyDeleteGreat find, Gnomie!
ReplyDeleteI will consider playing this "research" for my next effort...
Another game to add to the 'looks interesting but I'll probably never get around to play them' list :p
ReplyDelete..nope cant' be tempted.. impervious I am... immune i is.
ReplyDeleteYes... alright

Glad you enjoyed it dear Red Bull. Thanks, too.
ReplyDelete(tom gets whipped into trying this)
See, it wasn't that bad, was it?
Wow, Mr. Elderly you just gotta take a look at this guy. Amazing. Looks just like you...
No but I think my ass is bleeding now :-(
ReplyDeleteAhhh, but what's some tiny ass bleeding compared to the glory of the Horde?
ReplyDeletePfft...Alliance all the way!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm an Alliance n00b :p
Ok, then, let me rephrase... What's some ass bleeding compared to the glory of the Alliance? :)
ReplyDeletei'd just like to point out, that bleeding from the ass, could be symptomatic of having been skewered a by a retreating member of the horde.... albeit a very confused one.....
ReplyDeleten
Never have truer words been spoken. Hold still. I'll make a statue.
