Uncle Jonny

Starcraft 2

During my younger days I was one for the multiplayer strategy games. My passion started with Dune 2 (although that wasn’t multiplayer back then), followed by Red Alert, then Starcraft, and finally Command & Conquer Generals.
My favourite by far was Starcraft. It was different to the normal strategy games as each choice of race (Protoss, [...]
