| Post subject: | Warcraft before WoW |
Has anyone played the Warcraft games that came before WoW? Warcraft: Orcs & Humans (1994) Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness (1995) Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal (1996) Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos (2002) Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne (2003) I've played all of these games at one point or another during my lifetime, and I have to say these games are amazing, especially Warcraft II, which has one of the best game soundtracks I've ever heard before. |

I worked in a computer lab in college and we used to network Warcraft II and play after hours. Some of the best gaming sessions I can remember. |

I can't say I've played any of these as I prefer the RTS games based around vague real life i.e. Age Of Empires. |

I've played all of them, and warcraft II was by far the best. I believe they came out with a battlenet version, but I was never able to get my hands on one..  warcraft 3 wasn't what I thought it would be. It had great graphics, but it didn't even come close to warcraft II in "funness"I have the ps1 version of warcraft II

I never played any of them myself but I remember my Mom's Boyfriend playing Orcs & Humans and Reign of Chaos. They looked fun but back then it looked too hard for me. |

WC1 and 2 are no harder than Starcraft, if you've ever played it. They are a few of the earlier Real-Time Strategy games, so if you've played a lot of RTS, they're easy to get used to. |

Played all of them and still have all the disks sitting on a shelf somewhere. Used to play 2v2 LAN matches on WC3 almost everyday with a few friends, most fun I have ever had playing a RTS. |

Yes! I loved Warcraft 3 so much as I loved its aspect of an rts with a little RPG element in it. I recently downloaded Warcraft 1 and 2 and as soon as I can get my DOSbox to work I'll play them.
