Warcraft 3

[Cen]

Super Mario Bros is under rated. It revolutionized platformers and revitalized the video game industry and yet everyone rates it so poorly.

Dont get me started on the Legend of Zelda for the NES
I dont get why everyone hates it. I personally think its a good game.

What else is under rated guys?

Ultima IV and V

Finally, we agree on something.

Then again, it could be my nostalgia talking.

I also suck/sucked at RTS games but damn did I love Warcraft 2.

I played that game way too much and I was absolutely horrible at it.

Didn't care. Would rage and start another game. Repeat.

People would even peon rush me.

I was bad.

My first webpage ever was a Warcraft 2 fan site. Here's a wayback machine version of it (no cool 90's black lightning background, so you'll just have to imagine it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]).

It also had (what I thought at the time at least) was the best collection of custom maps on the web. Oh the nostalgia!

I'm going to reinstall Warcraft 2 and use your guide to finally be good at the game.

I never played WC2. There wasn't a mac release iirc. Or my Dad didn't buy it. I remember the one time I saw it in person, looking over my neighborhood friend's cool high school aged brother's shoulder. It must have meant a lot 'cuz I don't tend to remember things like that. I thought it looked cool and wicked/edgy. Your screenshots sorta bear that out; the ogres are cooool.

Super Mario 3 is the best game ever made.

I like Seiken Densetsu 3.

Same reason some folks like to trash McDonald's: Popularity can make something a target. On top of that, younger gamers will be looking at these games compared to newer games which learned from them. When the NES came out, all most of us who were around back then had seen before were things like PONG or Atari games. The NES was revolutionary.

Have you ever done the swordless challenge for The Legend of Zelda? You play through the original game without ever picking up the sword. You can play through the entire game that way, up to Ganon, though you cannot defeat him. It's an interesting and tough take on an old classic.

------------------------------

I didn't much like Warcraft 3. I think it placed too much emphasis on the "hero" characters, although that emphasis led to the creation of a new game genre as some modder or another got the notion to simply remove the remainder of the armies and let the hero characters duke it out.
