Best Real-Time Strategy

User Rating: 9.6 | Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne PC
I've been playing real-time strategy games for a good time in my life. I've played Age of Empires II, Starcraft, Age of Mythology, Rise of Nations, Empire Earth, and obviously Warcraft III. I have played all of the expansions for those games also, and The Frozen Throne is by far the best expansion I have ever experienced for a game in this category. The mechanics of the game are similar to those before it, and Warcraft III just takes those ideas and perfects them. The campaign is rather simple at first, but there is a higher difficulty setting once you beat it. But, the campaign is just where the game begins. Similar to Reign of Chaos, this game is all about competing online with others. If you think the game is too easy, go online, and you will find out that there are others out there that are more challenging to defeat. Even if you get bored with the regular Warcraft III, you can go in to custom games and play one of the thousand of games that people create with the World Editor. Overall, the game is superb. If you like playing real-time strategies with others, then I highly recommend you get this game.
