I just bought it.
Never played it b4, but I like Brood War.
So I bought it, then 2 minutes afterwards my mate tells me to read the sign in front of Toys R Us. "We have the lowest price of Warcraft III". I bought it from EB, but the guy gave me $10 off. So it was $89.95.

Anyone who likes Starcraft will feel right at home with WCIII.
You got the collector's edition? I got the normal + strategy guide. It's got a helpful poster of upgrades.

1.4ghz AMD Athlon, Geforce 2 64MB DDR Memory runs sweet. And 256 MB RAM. 1024x768 res. Nice :D
Can ne1 help me? How the hell do u build gold mines?? I couldn't build nemore!!! I'm using the Elf tribe. Can ne1 tell me please? If nobody does I'll speak more Japanese, and I know you guys don't wanna be reading that ;)
Except maybe Dan :unsure:
you dont. not to my knowledge that is.
all the gold dots on the map are gold mines..
you have to send warriors and peons out, try and kill enemys near by and take over a new gold mine. setup a building there for them to carry the gold to
And I think the Undead have the ability to mine gold without using any workers.

Well, most RTS have the same basic thing: minerals, gas, gold same basic things to produce buildings and the army. It's a lot different then Red Alert 2 though, much better in my opinion.

I've been looking into this game for a couple of days now, and I even played a demo at Future Shop, and I love it. I guess I will get it in the fall, though. Because then I should have my own brand spanking new computer to play it on.

The system requirements really aren't that bad. I have a 800MHZ, 256MB, poor graphics card and it runs great on my computer. The guy at the store told me I may have to turn down some of the effects, but I haven't had to. Then again that same guy asked me 500 times whether or not I would like to buy the strategy guide.

So in the fall, I will be rolling with this game.

This game is f**ing brilliant.
I'm slowly learning to play it. Even though I wanna use the Night Elves tribe, I'm sticking with the Orcs. The Elves look a bit complicated ATM

Dude, is that legal?
Whatever the answer, get me in contact with them! :D
Haha.
dat deal is for real too.
I was looking for a computer. Saw one of thoes $799 ones from Dell.
And wat work we get Business Catalogs from Dell. the ones businesses would order from. on there it was $699.
It had a code on it.
i went home and typed that code in. But i typed it wrong.
dumb luck i went to what looked to be the SAME computer. only it was $550, And listed Free upgrade after free upgrade.
Ram upgrade
HD upgrade.
CD Burner upgrade.
This Deal was listed NO WHERE on thier site if you were to go looking for it. i mean i wrote down the number i mistakingly typed in. and went all around thier site. didnt see it anywhere. i dont know what was up with this... but..
i took off a couple things like Monitor cuz i already have a fine monitor. Called Dell up. told them about it. They seemed slightly hesitent, dunno why :p then they kept telling me stupid things like i have to buy a network card. i was like Hell no i dont. it doesnt say network card anywehre on that site. few other things like that. I told them the order number on thier site. So legally they had to give it to me. i mean its listed on thier site. doesnt matter how i found it.
Needless to say that deal was no longer listed on the site after i ordered it.
after i was done i wished i ordered a bunch an i could of sold the rest on Ebay made a damn good profit on each.
But anywho. dat is roughly the story of how i got my PC.
*hugs it*
now if only i could find the same kinda deal for a Mac :hmm:

wish i could... i was seriously going to order more and sell them a couple hundred more each.
And i had freinds and family that would of loved that deal too.
i swear, almost the second i got off the phone with them i typed in that number and it was an invalid order number.
Erm yes, and it was 60 GB HD, not 120, 120 is what i have now. hehe. 60 is what i came with. it listed a 40, then a free 20 GB upgrade.
ugh, I can't sleep. Just...one...more...game... must play now
