Session fun rating: 8/10
I bought Starcraft 2 when it first came out but never really played it very much. I'm not a huge real time strategy player, but I love the story and setting of Starcraft, so I'm not really sure why I stopped playing.
Armed with my new PC, I decided to give the game another go. Of course, I can easily max out all the graphical settings at full 1080p resolution and the frame rate doesn't dip at all. I played 4 missions. The first two are really basic tutorials, but then I got to choose missions. I went with a mission where we had to rescue some colonists from the Zerg by escorting some transport vehicles. I abused bunkers to protect entry points and sent firebats, marines and medics on the road with the transports.
The other mission has me assault a Protoss archaeological site. They were being attacked by Zerg from a different route at the same time, so I had to hurry to beat the Zerg to the punch. I sent the rocket equipped marauders along with some marines, firebats and medics into the fray. When we reached the artifact, three giant stone statues came to life to protect it, so we killed them all.
