Get the Collecters addition instead.
the only thing you get in this that you dont in the collecters addition is Warcraft 2 and the strategy guide. But you get alot more in the collecters like: Art of Warcraft, Warcraft soundtrack, Warcraft DVD containing all the cinematics, a special addition Manual, and 4: 8 x 10's of the heros of Warcraft 3.

SO DONT GET THIS GET THE COLLECTERS ADDITION

A wonderful strategy game to revolutionize computer gaming.
I purchased this game, Warcraft III: The Reign of Chaos on July 3rd, the day it was released. I expected it to be wonderful like other Blizzard games, however I was pleasantly surprised at the attention to detail that Blizzard has put into it. If you are new to the World of Warcraft, the game is about a medieval-themed fantasy world in which several races exist battling for domination. The game-play is that of a real-time strategy game, one has to think quickly and in advance to slaughter the competition. This game appeals to a large age group, however is generally geared toward players from their teens up. (due to some animated violence and the complex thought involved in playing). Warcraft III has two main elements, a rich, bold, and exciting single player campaign filled with an intricate plot and stunning cinematics as well as a free online multi-player strategy network second to none. The highlight, in my opinion is the online aspect of Warcraft III, dubbed "Battle.net" which accurately describes the premise of the online gameplay. On Battle.net there are also several types of games to choose from, single player mêlée games (facing anonymous players world-wide), multiplayer team games (fighting exciting battles with friends) and custom games. (In the custom games the sky is the limit, there is such a plethora of diversity among custom game types that one could play forever.) Many games have exciting action and enjoyable gameplay, however Warcraft III is unique in the computer-gaming world, it has a tremendous replay value, it is hard (at least for me and all the players I know) to ever stop playing. The online element of Warcraft III is a secure, anonymous network in which the player creates a special alias to play warcraft, this protects the computer of the user as well as the user's privacy. As I mentioned earlier, there are different races involved in the wonder of Warcraft III. Four Unique Races armed with distinctive units, magical abilities, and weapons of war face each other in brutal and extremely fun combat. Each race is carefully balanced to have equal advantages and disadvantages when playing other adversaries. In addition, the 3D engine is wonderful, it shows a vivid, third-person vantage point which looks marvelous. Unlike some similar games, Warcraft III does not require a supercomputer to run, although it does look better with a good video card. The requirements are as follows:

-- 400 MHz Pentium II or equivalent
-- 128 MB of RAM
-- 8 MB 3D video card (TNT, i810, Voodoo 3, Rage 128 equivalent or better) with DirectX® 8.1 support
-- 700 MB HD space
-- 4X CD-ROM drive

Something I neglected to mention is the awesome map editor included with Warcraft III. The feature-packed editor allows the users to create their own adventures and games to play solo or online with friends. Blizzard entertainment also provides excellent customer support, should the need for it ever arise from such a well-designed game. So all-in-all, Warcraft III is a genre-defining game. With it's stunning graphics, never-ending gameplay, fast-paced strategy, and unique theme, it is a must-have for avid gamers or computer newcomers alike. Have fun! :-D
