When I was like 8 or 9, Blizzard consisted solely of a half-page advertisement mail-in for the Warcraft demo disk in a magazine. Had a couple small, overhead views of a game unlike any I had seen before. You got a single free disk in the mail with 2 levels. I played those two levels so much that, upon getting the full game for Christmas, I obliterated every single level in just hours. Still worth every penny, though.
