Starcraft Bar Mitzvah

Researching the success of Starcraft in South Korea, I came across a Frictionless Insight interview with Blizzard-VP Bill Roper. It contained this delicious quote:

"It's almost to the point that a copy of StarCraft [in Korea] is like a 13-year-old's bar mitzvah gift: 'Today, my son, you are a Terran.'"

From Being Blizzard Entertainment - August 4, 2002. In June, Bill Roper departed Blizzard.

I suppose this should be gotten out of the way while I'm thinking about it:

"ZERG RUSH KEKEKEKEKEKEKEKE ^_________________^"

Now that that's done... Blizzard has an entire country loyal to it.. that's kind of unnerving.
