A lot has happened over the last two decades. Check out the photo gallery below to see a few choice slices of the company?s history, including some photos of our earliest office spaces and the brave men who assembled their own desks! In the snow! Uphill! Both ways!

In 1991, three guys fresh out of UCLA decided to start their own game company. Their goal: make cool games and have fun doing so. Twenty years later, the company has become a world-renowned game developer and publisher, with offices across the globe and millions of players enjoying its games in more than a dozen languages.

In 2011, Blizzard Entertainment marks its 20th anniversary. Over the course of the year, we'll be celebrating two decades worth of games along with you, the community of players who made it all possible through your passion, enthusiasm, and support. Join us for a stroll down memory lane on this anniversary site: revisit the history of our games; participate in our global community contest; check out the photo gallery to witness how our epic hairstyles have evolved over the years; and much, much more.

We hope you enjoy this look back at the past 20 years of Blizzard Entertainment, and we look forward to bringing you even more epic entertainment experiences in the 20 years to come.

Blizzard, keeping gamers in their mom's basements since '91. :P

Just kidding! Please don't ban me. :(

But yeah, these guys deserve a round of applause. Thanks for supplying us with top-notch games for twenty years. Hell, they deserve a standing ovation for Diablo 2 alone.

^ And WC3, still one of the most played games today (with DotA, of course). And Starcraft. And SC2.

Full of **** company Blizzard, happy birthday!
