Blizzard kicks ass!
Damn straight Blizzard kicks ass. Now where's my StarCraft II beta key!?
By the way, can you give me a job? =P
Have to say, after 14 years of using this name, I'm still surprised by how many people recognize it. Goes to show that even 15 years ago they knew good games when they saw them. But, it's always weird when I play Rock and Roll Racing nowadays and hear Loud Mouth Larry saying it out loud.
Also I don't find that they necessarily have bad graphics. Low poly sure, but the quality of the textures more than makes up for it. Plus most of the bad looking screen shots you see on the web are from people running at the very low visual quality options that are available on all Blizzard games. With the settings turned up, they got some very pretty games.
Another thing that might makes their graphics seem bad is that a lot of people still play their games 5-10 years after they were made. Any game looks bad after that long. I know quite a few people that only started playing Diablo or Starcraft long after the expansions for each had been available. As much as 3-4 years past their initial release.
i stared playing Starcraft in 2004, now my favorite game of all time, even though i don't like the single player campaign.
