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

Warcraft is my top... but I maintain my stance that Blizzard is one of the greatest developers of all time. They have yet to make a bad game.

This is an extremely difficult question for me to answer. I love Diablo, I love StarCraft, and I love WarCraft.

Hmmm...If Diablo III and StarCraft II were anounced allong side of WarCraft III, I think I'd be most excited about StarCraft.

StarCraft: Ghost has me quivering with anticipation, so I think I'll have to vote SC. If you would have gotten to me a few months ago, it would have been WC. ;)

Diablo. I don't like Real-Time Strategy games, unfortunately, which is a damn shame, considering there's an assload of them on PC. I played the original Diablo when it came out in 1996, and I've been hooked ever since. I got to pick up that Hellfire expansion sometime.

Diablo.

I don't consider it a better series than the others, just more my taste.

Diablo- I find it to be more fun than their other stuff.

I had been playing Diablo 2 like crazy for the past couple months or so, same with Diablo 1 when it came out, but now that I stopped playing I realized just how shitty of a game it really is. So I'm gonna have to say Warcraft

I've been loving WC3, but I like the world of Starcraft more. As it stands WC3 is my top pick. Blizz is my favorite PC developer.

Blizzard should be everyone's favorite PC developer. ;)

I chose Warcraft because I'm more partial to its world than the Diablo one, and I haven't played Starcraft.

I would weep with joy if they made StarCraft 2..best RTS EVER!

The maps people made in RTS just added to the cake! Does anyone remember "elements"? You had to pick one of the elements and then you powered up your character like an RPG, it was really cool and I remember everyone played it for some time until 513531 re-made copies came out.

Or how about simple stuff like FireBat madness, that was always fun once in awhile

the starcraft world is much more interesting to me than the others, so my vote goes there, though the warcraft 3 cutscenes almost changed my mind. all three series are excellent. there's something to be said for releasing a game "when it's done".

edit: wait, wasn't it 3d realms that coined the "when it's done" phrase?

Where is the "none" option? :p
I'll have to choose.. hmm.. I need to play Diablo. :)

Diablo owns me :) I had an obsession with original Diablo back in 97, where I spent playing it single player and BattleNet for about 7 month. And I still play it to this day. Then Diablo 2 came out, and I was hooked once again. I still have yet to get Lord of Destruction add on, or play it online.

Hellfire was a pretty cool expansion pack, and Monk character was cool.

Unless you already know a group of people who you are planning to play with, I wouldn't bother with online play. It absolutely sucks nowadays, the community is all fucked

Diablo. Both games had me pretty addicted for a while. Starcraft was a lot of fun, too. I don't care much for Warcraft 3, but the Warcraft series has always had ace design and presentation. I can't wait for World of Warcraft.

I may have to stay away from WoW. It may turn into an addiction.

I wonder when beta sign ups are...

blizzard is good in my book.. blackthorne was one of my favorite 16-bit games..

Starcraft.

I love them all. What can I say?

Though, I'll have to go with Warcraft, simply because I really like the storyline as it's developed so far.

I'm now waiting on World of Warcraft myself... played it a little at E3 and was mightily impressed. I'm an EQ player right now, but when WoW comes out I'll probably switch. ;)

Diablo.
