    Best RTS game of all time. It's significant editing abilities with the gift of 'World Edit' forces the award of the worlds most Advanced, easy-to-use map making technology within the very grasp of It's palms. The campaign is that of a God, consisting of four unique races to conquer as; all flowing into one story of epicness!

    An amazing game elevated due to it's custom map/modding scene. The online might be dominated by bots and rather empty by now, but it is still fun to play through LAN.

    The one and only expansion to Warcraft III which just further cemented its place as the best RTS. It added to the base game's campaigns, units etc but most importantly further improved the Map Editor. Allowing even better and varied custom maps to be created by players for other players.

    First of all, what makes Warcraft 3 unique is that it introduced the aspect of having hero units into RTS (real time strategy games) unlike its predecessor, Starcraft. Utilizing real time strategy units to strengthen your hero unit is a really fun aspect to the game. The single player for both the original Warcraft 3 (Reign of Chaos) and The Frozen throne is worthwhile, especially the campaign mode which delivers a very satisfying story line.

    The multiplayer (battle.net) is a lot of fun as well because you can make and/or play user created maps online, or play against other players in a ladder format. Unfortunately, however, as this game has been around for so long, the multiplayer has become a 'niche'. There is a lot of hacking and not a wide variety of skill level that play online when it comes to playing the ladder, so it can be frustrating. As far as custom games go, there are still public games being made and played, but they might take a while to fill up player slots. However if you have any online friends to play with then you are good to go.

    There is also a few seasoned revamps such as w3arena for people who remain (highly) competitive especially in the meta game.    … Expand

Despite this though, the games was such an experience to behold with Arthas becoming the Lich King and everything else going to hell. The characters were all memorable and I can still remember Sylvannas, Furion, Kael, Illidan and the Naga's stories so many years after I played. The multiplayer was awesome and truly enjoyable with the map editor. You have to give a 10 to a game so good it gave rise to other genres of games--- MOBA and Tower Defense.

    TFT is the logical followup to the original masterpiece ROC. This addon does not invent the wheel in a new way, but still surprises on some interesting changes in balancing and overall gameplay. The new campaign is fun and funnels directly into world of warcraft. If you like ROC you need to get TFT. As simple as that...

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Warcraft 3 The Frozen Throne, was quite the let down in my opinion. Whilst the graphics and standard game play remained much the same from its predecessor, there are a few differences which will leave you frustrated and lack any real strategical depth. These are some of the mission you will embark upon. Many of these mission will be nothing more than glorified arcade style jokes, these seem to appear more frequently than one would like and the entire Blood Elf Campaign seems to be made up entirely of these dodgy bore-fests. From lack luster tower defense style missions, to battling over a caged Illidan, you will soon realize that these missions are no more strategical than fetching a cup of tea for your grandmother. The final mission for the Scourge is just a laughable arcade style joke as well, which has you running around a large and lifeless map, capturing more glowing circles than the Blood Elves. I guess the epic last stand of Mount Hyjal on Warcraft 3 was simply too much to try and top eh Blizzard?

    With over powered heroes, boring missions, uninspired level design and endings which will leave a bitter taste in your mouth, i can only hope that Warcraft 4 will be an improvement. If Blizzard will actually make it that is...    … Expand

Frozen Throne once again has 4 single player campaigns which feature new heroes and units. Among these are the blood elves and Pandaren Brewmaster. One of the campaigns is the orcish campaign that is a RPG style campaign that features the hero Rexxar.

    Both the base game and this expansion can be bought for about $10 each or can be found in the battle chest which is arguably the better deal.    … Expand

    This is how you make an expansion!

    Blizzard took the base game, added some new units for each of the 4 races, added a stunning campaign and improved and fixed all the quirks and issues of the original game. Then they improved the world editor making it one of the most powerful modding tools, allowing one to create fantastic maps, some of which even became standalone games (DotA), and    This is how you make an expansion!

You will find a rewarding campaign in the WC3 TFT but I suggest you start with the first game WC3 RoC first so you better understand the story. When you are ready to take your skills to the next level you can hop in some bot matches and test your might against the pc until you feel you are ready to play real pvp.

    Campaign, several new units and extra hero per race - that's all what I see in this expantion. Campaign is awfully predictable, with a rule: "Whoever you control, wins!". The ending, although, saved the campaign from becoming a cartoon story. Since Battle.net is an accomplishment Reign of chaos did, this game is only a lore-story for WoW.

    Manages to fix the balance problems that crept up in WarCraft III, but is unable to fix the fundamental problem. The game remains at an uncomfortable middle-ground between strategy and tactics, not giving enough of either or focusing explicitly on one.
