Starcraft – What’s the difference between the two ways to create games against the computer in Starcraft 2

starcraft-2

In Starcraft 2 there are two ways to set up a game against the computer; you can choose "Play versus A.I." on the single player screen or you can start a "Custom game" from the multiplayer screen and add A.I. opponents.

What are the differences between these two ways to create games against the computer? Does one have any advantages over the other?

Best Answer

"Play versus A.I." is a single player mode, you can NOT get achievements, it IS available during offline play.

"Custom game" is a multiple player mode, where you can play against A.I's or humans, or a mix of both. during this mode you CAN get achievements, but you MUST be connected to battle net the whole time.
