Starcraft was considered an awesome and entertaining game even before the release of Brood War. We didn't have to wait until Brood War came out to be able to have open chats with eachother either... Balance issues are understandable, but we're talking about a basic game feature here... Beta tests back then were also different from beta tests today. Today, betas are used just as much to promote the game and advertise the in-game experience as they are to actually test the game. Certainly Blizzard's recent betas have been more about hyping the game than testing features, which is why Blizzard recent games have gone into beta much more polished than other companies.
