I have Starcraft for the PC and the most outstanding thing is the nice, crisp graphics. But when I played it for the N64, the graphics were blurry. Because I recentle purchased an EXPANSION PAK, I compared it with and without it. The graphics were way better with it, and it also allowed a two player mode, and BROOD WAR. So if you plan to buy it, just buy the EXPANSION PAK.

thank God for this game...after all the mad marketing of pokemon and first pirson shooters (with all due respect to classics like goldeneye which came out quite a while ago)i was beginning to think that blood, guts, and pikachu would be all my television screen would ever witness...but to people who appreciate the value of a good chess game, Starcraft 64 must seem like the messiah of strategy games...although it didn't receive nearly enough praise while in its making as it should have, Starcraft rules my list of favorite games...the only problem with this game i might have (although a minor one) is its graphics which dont seem to be much improved by the N64 expansion pak...but who ... cares really?...atari proved that [bad] graphics didnt necessarily mean [bad] games

Before I bought starcraft 64 I read that it wasn't as good as the computer version, for example it had low resolution, but that didn't stop me from buying it. The resolution is pretty good and it is very easy to see your units. You may think, how can you easily control your units without a keyboard and a mouse. But it is not hard at all. You can easily select groups of units of the same type just as you could in starcraft for the pc. The starcraft version for computer allowed you to select up to 12 units at a time, but starcraft 64 allows you to select up to 18!

In StarCraft 64 you can play the original Star Craft from the p.c. but you can play Brood War the expansion. Also like the p.c. you play as one of three races The Tereines "who are much like humans" The Zerg "Your average insect kingdom society" and the Protouse "Your technolgically advanced race".It not only has stunning graphics for the Nintendo 64, it has story line that keeps you guessing whom will come out to be the victor.

Starcraft is an awesome game. It has 3 different races to chose from and a ton of different units. It is the best strategy game ever. It blows Command and Conquer away by far. If you get one game this year, make it Starcraft 64; trust me it is good!

Starcraft came out in 97' for the PC. The game was a success. It had everything to keep you playing for months. And if you did beat the single-player game. There was always their Battlenet online gaming service to look foward too. Then the expansion hit, even more people joined the vast Starcraft family. Now with SC64 and the built-in expansion set "Brood War" I think Nintendo is really smart. The drawback in SC64 is that people can see what your doing in Multiplayer games. And there's no Battlenet. But it is a good buy.

I LOVE Star Craft! I have it and the expansion on my PC but I also want it for N64. I'm extremely disappointed that it isn't being produced anymore. It should be brought back into stores so people without computers can get it for their 64 systems. If you can find a copy of SC64 Buy It! It has more missions than the PC version. It can be a draw back because you can see exactly what your opponent is doing because it's split screen. But if you really want StarCraft and you can't because you don't have a PC get this version if you can! It's great because it's StarCraft!

I would just like to say that StarCraft for the PC might be a better buy if you dont mind spending a few extra bucks on Brood War, but if money is tight then you should definatly go for this game. Since Brood War AND StarCraft original are lumped togeather it spares the extra cost, but graphics and control are a little short (Graphics can be solved by using the Nintendo 64 Expansion Pack).

this is a very cool on the edge stratagy game endles hours of gaming but i sugjest you get the expansion pack and get it for pc

Look everybody. I don't care what you think of strategy games this one will make you have a whole new perspective and respect for these types of games. Starcraft is for the gamer who won't give up when it's hard (and trust me, it can get pretty hard) and will have fun playing it all over again. You get to pick three different races. Terran-Humans Zerg-Buglike creatures Protoss-Aliens All have pros and cons with their race and against other races. It will bring hours of play time and all levels are easily passible no matter what you think. You just have to know how to use your men and spend your "money" wisely. This game makes you think and develops a craving for more strategy games. A good game to spend your money on.
