An update to one of RTS' greatest
Most PC gamers fondly remember the original StarCraft campaign -- strategic but packed with action and atmospheric as hell, it's still one of our favourites. Modders being modders, it was inevitably going to be remade with the StarCraft II editor, and it has.
Modders Ultraling, Maverck, and Jones313 have pooled their efforts and recreated the Terran campaign -- including the tutorial and soundtrack -- in the SC2 engine, releasing it late last week.
The word from fans is it's fantastic and faithful, though there are a few notable changes, including the addition of medics and an overall increased difficulty (not too hard, though), among others.
Feel free to give it a shot via the source and tell us what you think. See here for the finer details and install instructions.
If you're hungry for more, check out the StarCraft 2 - Brood War mod for multiplayer fun, also from Maverck.

Aaaand what sucks is that I just tried this only to realize that I can't play StarCraft because my account has been banned for 'suspicious reasons'. Apparently it's because I was logging in while my proxy was activated, but now Blizzard isn't sending me the emails it claims to be sending me to reactivate my account.

Northern49 Checked junk and all that? I know they've been having issues with fake emails going out...maybe they got caught up in that.

Props to Maverck and those guys. They also made the SC2BW maps, which is basically Brood War's multiplayer on SC2's engine.

Thanks for the tip. Added a note to the article.
