Blizzard Entertainment

Ok, what do you guys think of blizzard entertainment? Im not advertising their games or anything, i just want to know what people think of them in general. I for one have played almost every one of their games (excluding Warcraft 1 and 2) and every one i enjoyed to a incredible extent. Im looking forward to Starcraft:Ghost and the Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne and of course World Of Warcraft, and I still play Diablo II: Lord Of Destruction to this day, I leave it alone for a week or two, sometimes a month or two but then get hooked again for 2-3 weeks. I have great respect for them, which is very hard to get from me, especially for a company, in all respects i have even taken that as far as to not even consider cheating in any of their games under any circumstance. Like I said, I only want to know what more people think of them, yes, I know diablo was all point and click, and some of their games are quite a bit from perfect (sort of like freelancer dontcha think?) but still, just wanted to know what you guys think.

I like them for the stability of their games. I am a big fan of the Diablo series and can't wait for Diable 3. My only complaint is that Blizzard should put a little more into graphics. Making games in 640x480 native resolution is really behind the curve. I would be nice to see a Blizzard make a game with rock solid performance AND graphics at the same time.

I came. I saw. I conquered. And sometimes get conquered.

1st Class devs. I like their storytelling. Their FMVs are things of beauty. Not quantitatively very productive, but very creative.

yeah, i cant wait for any tiny, delicious little morself of gaming at its best from them. Anyhow, Diablo II: LOD had a option to turn the graphics up to 800x600 and it made the graphics look absolutely stunning, much better than almost any action/rpg i have ever played. But i do agree, their very good developers, and you forgot Warcraft III, a treat for the eyes at any level, i mean, i played it at a friends house at 648x456 (was that it?) and War3 still managed to be visually stunning. I play mine with all the details up and still the graphics never cease to provide plenty to feast your eyes on. No matter the grapics, but nonetheless, the story was really enjoyable, and their cinematics are so good i would prefer them over watching a movie, or watching a movie in that format. They have many secrets, secrets they will keep to the grave which will round out their perfection.
