What is your favorite Blizzard series?
Blizzard is easily one of my all time favorite developers, Starcraft and Warcraft are easily two of my favorite series, and just recently Diablo has been added to that list as I've just started it now after all this time and become completely addicted. Which is what all of their games do best -the gameplay is so amazingly addictive, the online aspect in particular. At least for me, that's how it is. I played Starcraft online, non stop, every day for months (more than a few times), Warcraft 3 non stop, every day for months (and I'd STILL be playing the crap out of it to this day if the damned thing didn't stop working on my PC), and now I've been playing Diablo 2 non stop, every day for the past week or two. I just love Blizzard :) Anyway, which is your favorite (and explain!)?
I think I'd still have to go with Warcraft right now. War3 is probably what I'd consider the greatest RTS ever created, no, I'd definitely say that. I had a ton of fun with War2 as well way back in the day (that actually brings back fond memories, as War2 was the very first PC game I'd ever played, and one of the first things I did when I got a computer for the first time). Combined I'd say they top Starcraft and the expansion, for me, just pound for pound the amount of time I've put into them, though I did like Starcraft's story more. Diablo 2 is still definitely too early to judge for me, but so far I can already tell this is going to be up there with many of my all time favorites. One thing's for sure with Blizzard, they sure make pointing and clicking more fun than should be legally possible :)
*oh, and I didn't include R&R Racing, Lost Vikings, or Blackthorn, because uh.. they don't count :p
