    Boy the original Starcraft really is a great game... Me and my buddies have been playing it over the past few weeks and I can not think of any strategy game that gives me that rush inside when the battle is about to break one way or the other. It is also one of the most finely balanced games...

    Men Of War

    http://www.menofwargame.com/ This is an under the radar game that offers awesome WWII action. The dialog and cut scenes are really pretty sub par but its only there to give you your next objective. Every mission has a "Last Stand" type feel. You start out with a certain number of units...

    Wireless mouse w/ Gaming

    I am planning on hooking my PC up to my 42" 1080P TV... So wireless mouse and keyboard would probably be the easiest input solution. Is there any latency that will affect my kill ratio? I tried a wireless MS IE mouse 2 years ago, but it didn't feel right. Wasn't sure if it was the mouse...
