      I thought Canada’s pride and glory was Eidos Montreal and now you’re telling me Blizzard North was here too? Oh goodie!

        I know blizzard (main) was in anaheim. just south (and sprawling with, but in orange county so nobody sane would ever go there) of los angeles. might be what you’re thinking of? but also you could be right, and it was in, like, glendale or some shit.

          Blizzard North (formerly known as Condor) was an American video game development studio based in San Mateo, California. The studio was the Bay Area division of Blizzard Entertainment, known for its Diablo series. The company was originally based in Redwood City, California, before moving a short distance away to San Mateo, with Blizzard proper being based in Irvine, southern California.

          ?? DIsneyland is in Anaheim. Not sure why you imply it’s an armpit.

              Yes, Anaheim is in Orange County, I’m not sure what you’re getting at. Orange County certainly has some nasty sprawl, but it also has some nice beaches.

                  Not sure what to tell you then.

                  I don’t like any part of CA between SF and LA (San Diego is nice, as are parts north of SF), but Orange County really doesn’t stand out to me as particularly bad. It’s better than LA County in many ways. But the region has some decent geography, so I like to visit occasionally (I live out of state, but my in-laws live on the edge of LA County and Orange County).

                    wow, not even monterrey? san jose? does oakland count?

                    the problem with OC is fascism and the worst christians, and how they build their enclaves. go there five hundred years ago and its probably my fourth or fifth favorite part of the continent.
