Default Way OT "Starcraft Revisited " Anyone?

I recently dug out an old copy of Star craft while home ill for two days. Thinking I would lay back in bed and just goof around on the laptop. Man was I wrong!!!!

I completely forgot how addicting this game is. Are there any Starcraft addicts out there who still play or would consider playing a battle up on battlenet?

Still sick

P.S.

Now i am sick at the office instead of home in bed. DOh!

P.P.S. Sorry about the OT.

just hooked up the home LAN and am kicking my dad's *** at Warcraft 2. Starcraft is too complicated for him right now..

War2 is fun nonetheless..

my record on WC3 battle next was 450-83.. and i had like around an 86% win percentage.. I was addicted and good

I quit because it was affecting my life. and pretty much ruining it.. I played for hours a day ect. I have not touched any video games in months, and instead have switched my hobby to porches

TA was fun, and it had a non-buggy Mac version, so it was really popular at my old job's office. i used to kick my boss's *** all the time in that game. the unit balance is a little wacky, though.

I liked the unique individual unit commands in TA, I'd like to see that in more RTS games, gave it an extra element of strategy.

Another RTS I liked but didn't get to play much was KKND, that had some fun innovations.

My favorite is still StarCraft though.

As for the first person games, I really wish Quake had an online server database like CS does, then it'd be easy to find games and I'd play it more.
