You know, they really were not. I was Googling some info about STW and I came across quite a few reviews from the time; they all ding STW for sub-standard graphics. I guess STW's 2D sprites weren't as pretty as, I dunno, Starcraft's 2D sprites.
And as long as we're getting nostalgic, let's not forget that STW came with a real, honest-to-goodness manual. That was actually worth reading. Sigh. When's the last time a game came with one of them?
