StarCraft - Brood War Cinematics [HD]

[SkyBlitzer1]

Oh the nostalgia ^^

[DEZEKER08]

1:21

Fucking n00b tuber!

[BowserisOK]

anyone know what the heck happened to the firebat?

[TheFivegoodemperors]

After the nuke went off there was only one survivor at ground zero. The marine wearing glasses and Christmas lights.

[Edruken]

back when SC was good :)

[dkmax32]

i dont know what but theres something about these old school graphics that i just love

[Zanator1]

And this proves a lot! Protoss, Terran Confederacy, Terran Dominion, they all failed misserably at getting rid of the zerg! And in such a short time, the United Earth Directorate has captured the Overmind!

[KlifeRR]

@Zanator1 Indeed, and the UED expedition was still only a part of the UED armed forces.... so if they would send there full force, then even all the others combined wouldnt stand a chance.

[Zanator1]

@KlifeRR And the dominion still has the guts to call themselves an empire!

[thetguy100]

why are they using trench warfare thats like a disadvantage they made it impossible to shoot the zerg and the zerg can attack in two directions without harm

[kewlduude]

lol bad day to be the marine in red

1. he gets stabbed a billion time by the hydralisk

2. he gets burned with the hydralisk by the firebat

3. DIES

[Banminator]

they built trenches against zerg? kinda weird, zerg use machine guns apparently :P

[DarkShroom]

wow the starcraft 2 cinematics and story are so forgettable compared to this

[Dra9onForce147]

This remindes me of Starship Troopers lol

[erote]

Fokin awesome!!!!!! Love this game forever!!!

[01Wrong01]

starship troopers LOL

[Braun616]

aww.. brings back memories

[157GOLIATH]

@Braun616 love your avatar. total recall rules

[Braun616]

@157GOLIATH start the reactor!

[PublicEnemy04]

Zerg casualties in the millions!

Terran casualties in the billions...

[ethan1142028]

@PublicEnemy04 I always thought that each digit in that counter represented 1mil zerg, because of how he says 'tallied in the millions"

[LtTralala]

wait...

since when is the Earth in the Koprulu Sector?

[darkbrian788]

@LtTralala It isnt?

[reaperbread]

too bad the sc 2 cinematics dont have the epic action and gore that sc 1 did....

[FishTurd69]

i remember seeing that for the first time, i was like, "wow these graphics look sick"

5 years later

wow, i remember seeing that for the first time, i was like, "wow these graphics look sick"...

[BacteriumsBud]

Am I the only one who thinks that SC1 and BW had better cutscenes and story than SC2?

[maisboyfriend]

@BacteriumsBud Probably.

[FoolOfATook930]

@BacteriumsBud Naw, I prefer SC1 cutscenes and story better than the second one. Don't get me wrong second one was good too it just wasn't..... idk didn't have the right mood. SC1 was moodier and darker and more serious. SC2 just doesn't seem serious enough. Plus the graphics. Too cartoony lol

[osmarchito]

@BacteriumsBud nop many thinks the same like me sc1 cinematics were more epic than sc2

[Area51T]

Lol @ all you kids getting trolled by RuskiHomie.

[157GOLIATH]

@Area51T well I hope he gets his inbox full of responses to his crap. So in away he trolled him self a big headache 

[Area51T]

@157GOLIATH I don't think you understand how the internets works.

[157GOLIATH]

@Area51T Well, why dont you have your mom come to my place and explain it to me over a bottle of wine and lube.

[SadisticExNazi]

@157GOLIATH lol you mad.

[ThatOnePerson89]

Seeing a battle cruiser up close makes me wonder how in the hell a dozen hydralisks could possibly take it down. o_e

[RuskiHomie]

Shittest game made in history.

[157GOLIATH]

@RuskiHomie Yes, it is way advanced for nimrods like U to understand. Stick to your caliber of games if this one is too advanced, play Mario Cart and such..

[Gastergensis]

@157GOLIATH hey, can't a guy enjoy both Starcraft and Mariokart?

[157GOLIATH]

@Gastergensis Depends on the taste in games. I think Mariokart is childish in comparrison to starcraft. But if u like it, its Ok, lol

[SirMorNo]

@RuskiHomie How so?

[EpicFlyingCat]

@RuskiHomie Man I feel bad for you. Go back to your sexually abusive father.

[MrDonosoi]

@RuskiHomie shittest comment made in history

[Dantaroen]

did one of those marines use over a 100 bullets without killing 1 fucking zerg?

[ivanlu18]

okay boys and girls i think we all learn something today, trench war is bad ideas against Zergs :(

[GmoneyXgrant]

This feels so much like starship troopers

[Ksalald]

Alexi was a father. ;_;

[mazack00]

This cinematic gives me nerd chills every single time.

[LWStupidus]

1:23 the original Marauder

[Gamermasta2]

Lol That Marine must be Rambo, or he was born RAMBO!

[SetTheControlsForThe]

@Gamermasta2 He's based on a soldier from Apocalypse Now

[1master120]

If the overmind was alive you all be died....

[RSixBoy]

UEN propaganda... Very reminiscent of real life media

[reaperbread]

am i the only one who noticed that in the second cinematic the guy sais that the zerg losses were in the millions but the number thing as going into like above the trillions? lol

[Kaialb09]

Isn't the Ghost in the beginning Samir Duran?

[JohnMasterCheif]

Did anyone else notice that Alexi seemed to die before he was born when they showed his record during the UED broadcast?

[UncensoredRhett]

Dugall and Alexei were gay. Never noticed that before. Interesting.

[mainguyenad]

Terran vs Zerg = Starship trooper :))

[TimeOracle]

So basically the Dominion were taking credit for Tassadar's final stand against the Overmind? :(

[JohnMasterCheif]

@TimeOracle actually no. The UED is different from the Dominion. I'm guessing you haven't played Brood War, so I'm not sure how to explain it without giving away a lot of spoilers. It's a good game, and I suggest you try it.

[TimeOracle]

@JohnMasterCheif Yeah sorry I didn't know that but still aren't the Terrans taking credit for it,or do I have to play the game to understand why they said that on the Television?

[JohnMasterCheif]

@TimeOracle If you want to avoid me spoiling it, then I suggest playing it. If you rather I just tell you, I will.

[leegeorgeson]

@JohnMasterCheif But both the UED and the Dominion are bad guys despite the powerful friendship Alexei and Dugall have.

[JohnMasterCheif]

@leegeorgeson Yes, techically they're both bad guys. But that has nothing to do with your original question. So I'll just answer it. Yes Tassadar did kill the Overmind, but a few Cerebrates *forgive misspelling* merged and began to form another one. The UED managed to capture it before it could mature. That's why they said what they said in the broadcast.

[leegeorgeson]

@JohnMasterCheif That was someone else's question :)

[JohnMasterCheif]

@leegeorgeson oh...whoops. My bad...either way, the question is now answered ^^;

[Loup359]

I first watched this when I was quite young. Understandably, the beginning was...disturbing, to say the least. Nightmare fuel for weeks. Anyway, this is an awesome intro.

[kkksskkk]

SCI cinematics are so epic.

[KaizerRolls]

Poor Private Toysucker D:

[Trystan112]

I'm sure you know this already, but the Zerg Ending should be here

[monstavids123]

this reminds me of starship troopers

[shadowkiller3500xd]

Blizzard should do an fps where you control a marine on the Brood Wars, it would be awesome.

[2moonsfun]

@shadowkiller3500xd Check for starcraft: ghost

[SketchFoxx]

@shadowkiller3500xd No, not Blizzard, they'd either cancel it like Ghost, or make us wait ten years or some shit. Blizzard makes fun games but they SUCK on time

[kaptankomposto]

Every time I accidentally watch a SC2 cinematic I inadvertently find my way here. In an instant it nullifies the previous discontentment. :)

[kriszium]

1:30 the first marauder?

[wafflewraplgd]

... the old time graphic were more scary than the nowadays graphic....

[FoolOfATook930]

@wafflewraplgd Agreed Blizz made things way too cartoony with the new one

[828Pakie]

@wafflewraplgd It left a lot more to the imagination of how we all thought the starcraft universe should be.

[Ribeyeangus]

That black dude is tweaking on stim packs in the beginning. LOL

[finalfrontier001]

will UED be in HOTS it would be cool if our planet takes care of the situation in the kaporal sector after all earth is in a lonley corner of the galaxy :(

[zauberhut]

Protoss are so cool!

[MegaMechGod]

It took 100 pentium 90s to make these videos :/

[PlanetoftheRape]

4:30 is a total rip-off from starship troopers, my favourite movie :D :D :D

[AMYuntold]

@PlanetoftheRape  Nope, it's a total parody of early 20th century news... the same stands for Starship Troopers.

[RageOfTheTiger]

guys rockin back and forth like he has some disorder. I wonder if he has any clue he was about to die.

[FoolOfATook930]

@RageOfTheTiger Naw, he was a ghost man. Those guys are so pro, he probably knew when he landed on that planet that he was gunna die.

[RageOfTheTiger]

@FoolOfATook930 I always thought he was just a marine.

[stanleythedoogle]

@FoolOfATook930 not a ghost, ghosts have hostile environment suits, not cmc combat suits. also his weapon is a c-14 with optional under slung grenade launcher attachment, not c-10 canister rifle 25mm automatic

[FoolOfATook930]

@stanleythedoogle Heh, figured. But, question is, if he's not a ghost, then what is he? He doesn't fit any other starcraft unit, so I figure it must be a variation in some way of a ghost.

[stanleythedoogle]

@FoolOfATook930 he's a marine, he simply has a grenade launcher attachment to his rifle.

[wayneski1290]

@FoolOfATook930 Ghost have their own armour so i wouldn't think he was a ghost. He just knew they were gonna die.

[PublicEnemy04]

@FoolOfATook930 Ghost are required to have psionic abilities. He was just a really good marine.

[PlanetoftheRape]

@RageOfTheTiger just jammin to his killin tunes

[strgaltdelete]

blizzards soundtracks are so amazing! the music starting at 3:30 is just so tragic and epic

[namdrut]

i prefer the look of these zerglings in the cutscenes to the new image of them in SC2

[FoolOfATook930]

@namdrut Same.... Sadly tho, Blizz seems to have gone cartoony on us.... SC2 armies look like toys now.....

[benson1ification]

@1:38 I love the accurate dubbing there ! :P 

[RidDik417]

apuesto a que a esos soldaditos les gustaria jugar starcraft y matar a todos los zerg

[googleinc123]

1st one is badass espically with the firebat!!!!! and also i like the marines walk idk why :D

[Deralikeable]

while a vidio is bufferting press the down arrow to play a game :)

[Prsthx]

I didn't know Games Workshops had older games

[ThePlaceCannel]

@Prsthx what?



[lukefasss]

Am I the only one who thinks first 2 minutes were inspired by "Apocalypse Now" ?

[tahtHairyPwner]

sure terran has nukes, but who needs those when you can level planets with protoss?

[volk551]

Alexi Stukov born 06/09/822 died 04/23/822 so He was -3 months old and a father of 4 how?

[Dronk1717]

@volk551 probably should have been 872, as you see at 6:32 that the production date is 872 too aswell.. So he should have been 49 ;)

[volk551]

@Dronk1717 typo's are so fun.

[Dronk1717]

@volk551 true dat

[MrAwesome898]

So why is it that the terran have one battlecruiser and they leave someone behind on a planet to get their butt handed to them by the zerg?

[EyeOfTheElite]

@MrAwesome898 Those marines are from the colonies. The battle cruiser is from earth here to simply observe zerg combat. They're on different sides.

[DaKatphish]

Hello

[chain5aw1]

i mean a little part of it

[chain5aw1]

this is a bad ass referance to apocalyse now

[ForestSpyer257]

R.I.P. Vice Admiral Alexi Stukov. you fought te good fight

[skantiloak]

this would make a brilliant movie

[DevilDogSGT07]

@skantiloak too much like starship troopers

[elhomosatirus]

this cinematics where more darker than wings of liberty looks more like disney 3d adventure

[RedDevilloJomero]

@elhomosatirus yeah! i also liked to play for the UED!

[CHEESYHEAD684]

Why don the zergs just FRIGGEN die man! i get that its to make them look stronger and the more powerful race n stuff. but tis just so GHAIODHASDSODABSDASOB!!! it frustrates me..

[Tony2xs1]

Anybody else thought about starship troopers watching the second scene?

[schifty101]

@Tony2xs1 They are both based on the same book

[ThePainShredder]

my favorit part is when the firebat dies its so funny :D

[TheHelghastHunter]

"WHERE IS THE AIR SUPPORT?!"

"uhm... Duh?"

[BladeLigerV]

When fighting Zerg trenches and fox holes are a bad idea to counter TUNNELING Zerg

Try walls and a metal floor

[Belphemoth]

Does anyone know if the music that starts at 3:40 has been composed by Blizzard or already existed before?

[TorPedoCXC]

@Belphemoth: I talked about this with Jason Hayes, the composer of the music. He said that he composed it himself but got inspired by some existing pieces of classical music. The language is a mixture between french and latin by the way.

[Theairsoftferret]

Wow, So Alexi not only died two months before he was born, but also made it to vice admiral and had four children. That's talent right there :) 5:59

[Killer1260]

@Theairsoftferret lol i'm hoping they are talking service time :) if not, well he's one hell of a man.

[thatfishbreeder]

LOL love the silent black guy ROCKING to his music! XD

[medcsu]

Notice that Stukov died the same year he was born (822)?

[AppleOutlaw]

1:48 he's probably thinking "the air support is in the air dumbass" lol

[thatfishbreeder]

@AppleOutlaw

LOL loved your COMMMENT! HAHAH XD

[thekkl]

You skipped a cinematic.

[panicboixd]

anyone else notice the Apocalypse Now references?

[nanuaraq0409]

@panicboixd Sure. They're cool :)

byt the waym, anybody know what the music playing is?

[TorPedoCXC]

@nanuaraq0409: It was especially created for the game. I've got the original MP3 of the Starcraft soundtrack.

[RANDOM7070]

if you ask me starcraft is just blizzards fucked up version of 40k sersiouly red neck space marines

[157GOLIATH]

@RANDOM7070 Nothing could be farther from the truth.

[Jpipooly]

@157GOLIATH I would say they are pretty similar now, back in the originals like this one the marines were alot more interesting to me

[RageOfTheTiger]

@157GOLIATH When I first saw it, I thought it was just a warcraft in space with upgraded mechanics.

Once I got into Starcraft I wished I got into it sooner. Its so fun and addictive!

I heard they may do a warcraft 4 when the starcraft 2 series is wrapped up.

[snellman3]

@RANDOM7070 yeah...its sales proof that.

[moiriv415]

@RANDOM7070

no one gives a damn.

[TheGam3rGuy1337]

@RANDOM7070 Screw you.

[Powerofdriger]

@RANDOM7070 Well, no one asked you.

[blackmage0169]

@RANDOM7070 you're dumb. yer observation is true but u clearly have no idea about the origins of warcraft or starcraft.

[Ball4184]

@RANDOM7070 ... zerg are cool though and protoss even though you dont favor the terran right?

[spoonalisk]

@RANDOM7070 version of 40k, maybe, fucked up HELL NO BOI. have you even played it for gods sake?

[TheLeftHand88]

@RANDOM7070 But, the thing about StarCraft, the humans are actually human, not uber-devout borderline Catholics with historic amnesia bent on universal domination and worship a 20 foot tall guy who got put into a coma by his best soldier and requires the blood of 10,000 people a day to stay alive. (quoting you) If you ask me, the 40k story sounds like weak-sauce drizzled over bon-bons. The plot of 40k is terrible.

[azza362ok]

@TheLeftHand88 the last time i saw it both games were science fiction and the blood of 10,000 people is for the sake of humanity :)

[K9Productzions]

@TheLeftHand88 both games are cool in they're own way(except for SCII..it sucks)Dow is an epic story because..hey..it's Dow :D>the universe is at war...and yes...i dissagree with 10.000 souls lost because that thing to stay alive...and i hate that the humans are fouled with the thing ,,the god emperor"...and that the space marines are a bunch rasist fanatics...but the story is quite awesome;AND Starcraft is cool because it shows how the human race would be in reality if cought in a galactic war

[Tomoyuki976]

@RANDOM7070 Ironically enough Blizzard admitted that it was Starship Troopers (the 1997 movie) that was the inspiration for the United Earth Directorate.

[Medhiv83]

@RANDOM7070

well i heard a rumor some years ago that they were originally planing to make a dawn of war game, but the license was pulled or so ... so they renamed/redesigned the species a little and starcraft came out! anyway starcraft 1 beats any dawn of war or 40k game. no competition there at all :) and i like dawn of war :(

[geor1002]

@RANDOM7070 you amaze me

[AMYuntold]

@RANDOM7070  Yeah like nobody has ever thought about heavy armor around a soldier before...

[finalfrontier001]

@RANDOM7070

I CREMPIED YOU'RE MUM ..... YOU HAVE A BABY BROTHER ON THE WAY

[deathpawn9]

The opening cutscene is so sad

[DiscipleCJ2391]

But I Still Love the Starcraft universe!!! can't get enough of it!!! wwooooooot Blizzard!!!!! \m/

[DiscipleCJ2391]

somehow... i still like a lot of stuff from the original starcraft... (Terran Based) Adjutant & Medics sounds sexier Marines and Goliaths are Badasses Firebats and ghosts looks cool at game (somewhat realistic look) in SC 2 Adjutant sounds more robotic Medics weren't that appealing Marines look cool at cinematics but not that cool with quotes Goliaths are now fatasses Firebats look more cartoonish(or something like dawn of war look) and ghosts aren't that much of a big deal...

[SonnyA89]

The intro is soo epic

[Speed4532]

What about the rest of all the Protoss forces besides Zeratul and Artanis? Did they all die?

[Levenfish68]

@Speed4532 When the countdown finishes at the end of the mission, all the protoss units immediately go to the temple. It is implied that all the protoss are either on some other planet, are getting off the planet, or in the temple.

[GeologistRob]

trenches are an aweful idea against the zerg.

[157GOLIATH]

@GeologistRob Not if they are connecting bunkers. lol

[shumarkarknein]

@157GOLIATH tunnels would be better^^

[thespaceboon101]

after starcraft had 3 teams it seems every rts game needs 3 teams

[MrCheespuff]

omg.... they left them there

[MrShitthead]

I NEVER get tired of watching these!

[157GOLIATH]

@MrShitthead I think that everyone should feel that way. Everyone that knows about ST that is..

[Snyphen356]

haha whole thing reminds me of starship troopers

[Snyphen356]

hmm the first one reminds me of the beginning of starship troopers 3

[MrIWHBYD]

why does the ued have the same technology as the terrans?
