The word "Craft" in video game titles

Anyone else notice that a few games have the word "Craft" in it somewhere? Examples: Starcraft Starcraft: Brood War Starcraft 2 Warcraft Minecraft and this new game I heard of "Fortresscraft." Your thoughts? BTW, I only named all the Starcraft games because I don't know how many games the other ones have.

  • Well as far as Warcraft and starcraft goes,they are made by the same company (hail Blizzard!)and was probably done intentionally,plus they are the oldest video games i can think of with the word "craft" in the name. Mine Craft,the name makes sense,you have a mine cart and "craft" mine shafts and buildings for you'r cart to go through (just talking about it makes me want to play it.) But Fortresscraft,come on,really? The games a blatant rip off of mine craft to begin with,but they could have done something at least with the name to make it some what original.

  • i think its because most of those games you sort of create your world, or create your army(startcraft and warcraft), but i think it really means 'create' but 'craft' just has a better ring to it in their opinions.

  • Starcraft and Warcraft both belong to the same developer. Minecraft was a fan suggestion based on Starcraft. FortressCraft is a ripoff name of Minecraft.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] AboveClassified Three of those games are part of the same series, so there goes a good portion of your argument.[/quote]First Rambo movie was called "First Blood". Second Rambo movie is called "Rambo" (Subtitles don't count). There's no excuse. [Edited on 03.03.2011 8:18 PM PST]

  • Oh, [i]no[/i]! Three [i]whole[/i] game series? You do realize Fortresscraft is inspired completely by Minecraft; it's extremely similar.

  • Starcraft? Minecraft? Warcraft? Those names are just blatant ripoffs of the success that is Fortresscraft! And then there's Starcraft II, and Warcraft II and Warcraft III! How unoriginal! The nerve of some series....
