Total Annihilation blows the socks off of Starcraft...TA has about 400% more units out of the box than Starcraft does...Also the gameplay just trumps SC all around.

I disagree, Starcraft is quite a unique game, it's races/factions are completely different though balanced very well. Each unit is useful and can be used in different ways. In games like TA half the units are worthless. Starcrafts interface also has a far better feeling.

im going to have to say that i never play T.A. so i cant say much, but can we plz stay away form "this game is better then that game" one of the main reasons i love SC so much is the DOTA games (anyone know what that stands for?) but i know they are custom games, but who played/plays the custom games online on SC? thats why im so mad i cant log on :(

Defense of the Ancients, however that's a Warcraft 3 map, not Starcraft.

However I do agree that Starcraft (and Warcraft 3 even more) has tons of great custom maps. They can be custimized very well.

I couldn't say it better, even a terran dropship can make you have a bad time (using it to increase tank at-range at siege mode).
