WarCraft III First Impressions
Reno takes a hectic ride through battle.net. Still can't speak l33t.
I'll admit it, I haven't played an RTS game ever since I was playing in the StarCraft: Brood War beta. The whole genre really got sick to me, and after playing StarCraft, Command & Conquer, Age of Empires and countless other RTS games, I had to stop. Since then, the only RTS-ish game that I've played would be Pikmin, and that's a mighty stretch. So for the past two months I've been playing WarCraft III beta one thing has come to my attention: I completely suck at these types of games now. Receiving my beta copy 9 weeks later than everyone else didn't help matters either, but with some research and impressions from other beta testers, I was able to at the very least hold my own against most of the people I played against.

In other news, Blizzard has unveiled the boxart for WarCraft III. Each of the four races will be represented with their very own boxart. It looks pretty spiffy, and I know I'll definitely be in line July 3rd to grab my copy!
