Game doesnt respond to keyboard properly

I'm too baffled to figure out if it's OS X or my game, Warcraft 3, causing the problem.
I dont remember this happening when I played the game a year or two ago (and it's a totally legit version, not a bootleg), but I recently re-installed it and started playingagain.
For anyone unfamiliar with the game, it's an RPG game and you play on a large map and you can use the directional keys to move around the map. the game often doesnt respond to the buttons, so I have to repeatedly press them.
Now, you know when a computer's CPU is maxed and it stalls for a second or two,and if you pressed a button 3 or 4 times it'll perform those actions all at once really quickly as soon as the CPU can do so? It's not like that. My CPU isn't having that trouble. I'll press, say, the up key once...nothing...twice...nothing..three times, finally it moves up. Sometimes just once, sometimes just twice.
But I'd really like to know what's happening. It's ONLY in the game. the rest of the keyboard operates just fine in the game.

Doesn't sound good.   If your machine is under a year old, you still have an opportunity to buy AppleCare and extend the warranty to 3 years from date of computer's initial purchase.  Otherwise, frequently the genius bar will help you troubleshoot a reproducible issue with what is apparently hardware.   Also try the hardware test by booting with the 'D' key.  If that's unrevealing, and you haven't installed new RAM, and they can't figure it out, it is possible the RAM or battery needs replacing, or the power adapter does.
