Where were you in 1998? (In celebration of StarCraft)

I was 12, and in middle school.

I remember coming into English and the son of the teacher (who was in my class) was playing StarCraft on one of the old Macs. It didn’t run very well (it’s a Mac, har har) but I remember seeing it and being blown away.

It was like watching Star Wars from the ground or something similar. Gruff space battles with dreary music and dark over/undertones. It was much different than other sci-fi games I’d played.

A very unique experience for me. Eventually I got it myself and sucked at it. 


I still suck at it!
