Why still 2D? Why don't they update it into the SC2 engine? Looks like playing C&C or Red Alert with a HD patch :D
Wonder if they are going to remaster the cutscenes?
It was a great game back in the day, though I would argue that StarCraft 2 has a better campaign and that engine renders quite nicely in 3d. I'm just surprised they didn't port the original campaign over to the SC2 engine.

Well it's available for free starting today , with the re-master releasing summerish.

Just unzip the Starcraft folder to somewhere of your choice and run Starcraft.exe to enjoy.

Multi-player server is in California, so possible bad latency for others world wide.

I never played it and just assumed that it would work in 3D.
2D only sucks :(
