Blizzard Takes a Look at the Last 20 Years in Gaming
 
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news...Years-of-Games

There's a video if you follow the link, looking back at the history of Blizzard as a company.

I don't know about you, but Blizzard is one of the reasons I became a PC gamer, thanks to Warcraft, and Diabo but even more so... Starcraft. The first strategy game I ever really got hooked on.

Any other Blizzard favorites out there?

guddagudd 03-09-2011 02:36 PM

I love every single Blizzard game out there. Except Warcraft I, II, and III, I never got into them, but it's only because I never got the chance to play it much.

Metzen! I remember reading his signature off the drawings of my old old old starcraft manual back in the days when I was a kid.

I've religiously played all these Blizzard games: SC:BW, WC2, WC3, Diablo, Diablo II, SC2
Looking forward to Diablo 3 and also I've yet to go to a Blizzcon. =/

Same here.

Played every single Blizzard release to date religiously. Including WoW. Fuck. That was a blackhole in my life. But SC2 is something I didn't get hooked on. After finishing the campaign I put the shiny box away.

Starcraft is the one reason why my grades in high school sucked. But every minute of it was worth it. Played starcraft up until I got the beta key for sc2. lol

FerrariEnzo 03-09-2011 11:41 PM

Warcraft is what got me started in pc gaming.. then i tried C&C but never really liked it as much..

dont get me started about starcraft... i missed some school days because of this damn game.. haha...

i never played diablo series so i cant comment on that...

Senna4ever 03-09-2011 11:50 PM

I've been hooked on Warcraft II, Starcraft and World of Warcraft. I haven't tried Starcraft II for fear that it will ruin my life. Hated Diablo.

Hondaracer 03-10-2011 06:42 AM

I played Dune 2 quite a bit before and blizzard games, cool they mention it was one of the original games that inspired WC

Warcraft II is what got me onto RTS games (That and Command & Conquer), played many games via modem against buddies.

Never really got into Diablo.

Loved SC2 but got into it years late because my PC at the time couldn't handle it.

Played WC3 quite a bit.

Never played WoW, Hate how it's like crack to some people.

I got SC2, got about 80% through and I kind of just stopped. I dunno why, I just kind of lost interest.

I'm not really into online gaming, so I never really got into battle.net either.

You know you're addicted to Diablo 2 when you enter class room and start screaming, "PP" "PP".

Mizter 03-10-2011 12:12 PM

I had starcraft, diablo 2 and warcraft 3 but I really only played the first two. My brother was the bigger wc3 fan.

liu13 03-10-2011 02:51 PM

only played SC and D2, then moved onto CS and stopped gaming after that

now it's all chess and poker

skyxx 03-10-2011 03:28 PM
