This is not a review of Warcraft III, which I think is excellent and would consider giving 5 stars to. This is a review of this specific gift set, which I think is a waste of money.This gift set includes only 2 things that are worth buying - the actual game, and the cinematics DVD, both of which can be found in the Collector's Edition. The collector's edition also includes the exclusive soundtrack CD (worth its weight in gold to any true Warcraft fan), an extremely high quality "Art of Warcraft" book, and a collector's edition manual signed by the development team.The strategy guide is fairly worthless, because the game is not difficult enough to justify use of one, not to mention that there are better sources of strategy online, and Warcraft II is not recommended for anyone, especially since most people who buy Warcraft III already have Warcraft II.
