Chris Berrow - I used to play this as a kid...

It was amazing…

It’s a strategy game, a bit like Rome Total War, or Starcraft…

So when Blizzard announced it was coming back bigger and better than ever, I was pretty excited…

TRAILER

But it’s rubbish… so many complaints

“Worst remaster in the history of remasters.”
-bob4ever

“Blizzard has a paragraph in the user agreement for this game that they have exclusive rights to any custom game which is made in this game. Just unbelievably **** from one of the companies who used to be my #1 by miles. This game does not deliver on what it promises and I am not even going to start on the price (40$) on what is essentially a HD mod.”

-I'd rather have paid to prevent them from releasing this. You can no longer play using the old client, and even the menus run like **** on the new one. Disgusting.

It has a rating of 0.5 on Metacritic...

Leigh Milner - What's your rating out of 10?

Chris - 0.05

Warcraft III is available now on PC for £25, but maybe wait until a patch.
