Warcraft III Starcraft is the best real-time-strategy game ever. This shouldn’t stop anyone from getting into Warcraft 3 which gets pretty close to perfection and is definitely the best RTS in the last decade. With the different add-ons, specifically DOTA, Warcraft 3 is now being played at LAN’s more than Starcraft. A pretty amazing feat. Call of [...]

I just got home after a devastating and defeating loss in our schools Pre-dental society elections (heavy sarcasm), I don’t want to bad mouth my opponent but I was kind of frustrated I didn’t win.
