    Game brings in elements fromthe war craft game! Awesome story and good at teaching begginers and awesome for the veterans. Play wings of liberty first. This is a must play for starcraft fans.

    The game continues the excellent and compelling story that was previously left from the first installment. The characters are strong and the game play is great. Can't wait for the Protoss.

    I enjoyed the game and the campaign was great. The multiplayer is pretty close to the original game, but it is worth the investment. The campaign was short but a lot of fun.

    This is a great game! If you've played the Wings of Liberty then you want this expansion pack! Even after the campaign play, I'm still doing the custom games and multiplayer.

    It is a nice add-on to starcraft 2 which continues the story line and introduced some zerg units; but really nothing new in the single player mode and not really worth the price; probably should wait till it dropped price...

    Starcraft 2 part 2 is centered around the Zerg campaign. It is exactly like you would expect it to be. You progress through the story and get new units as you make your way through mission after mission. Some of the missions involve working with a definitive number of units instead of creating your own army from scratch. These missions are not the funnest, but they are few and far between. The story itself picks up right where part 1 left off and is satisfying enough. The dialogue and voice acting are both surprisingly satisfying. However, all of that said, this game doesn't really do anything to change the landscape of RTS's. That's not really a problem, per se, just a statement.

    This expansion really should be like what every developer out there should shoot for with their games. It was great and a lot better than I though it would be going into it.

    I'm not a real time strategy fan but decided to give it a whirl since it was on sale. The computer players attack so fast I barely have anything going. Got easily frustrated with this.

    This is a good expansion that gives you interesting game levels, fixes some issues that the original had and adds very fun and creative aspects to the game. The expansion is much more of a hero based game, making the change in game play focus between the original and expansion similar to the difference between warcraft 2 and 3. My only complaint is that it is a true expansion, especially in terms of the length of the single-player campaign and the depth of the changes, however they continue to charge closer to full game prices.
