*notice*
kekeke is Korean for "hahaha".
"Kek" is orcish for "lol"
Thusly
kekeke != Kek
Korea != Blizzard

Starcraft is still played at a competitive level in Korea to this day. Widespread western exposure to kekeke happened after Koreans pwned the majority of western Warcraft/Starcraft players with "Zerg rush kekekekeke". Since they're obviously not riding zerglings, they decided to call it a tank rush.

kekeke is also similar to the thai expression 555 kvy.

Koreans are the worst players living on the earth. They have several institutes spread across their country were they offer help to people addicted to games. Blizzards games are worst of all. In fact the only documented case (Looked up some years ago. Might be incorrect.) of someone dying from playing games played Diablo 2.

My sweet Eleonore, show no fear,
for the fearful riders are all ear,
and they smell and tastes every tear.
But more importantly: They aren't here!
Therefore there is no reason to fear.
Not until they ride again, my dear.

Well isn't that bigotry if I've ever seen it.  As far as I know both the US and China have similar places dedicated to video game addiction treatment, and I'm sure there are other countries as well. As for people dying after marathon sessions, I've read news reports that include Diablo II, CounterStrike, MapleStory, Everquest I/II, and most likely other MMOs, so it's not just Blizzard either.

Korea is worse then both USA and China. Blizzard held once a speach about Starcraft 2 which was about 5 minutes. People came miles away just to hear it. Its a little ridiculous.
And Blizzard is the biggest game developer (and is even bigger in Korea);
Diablo
Diablo 2 (LoD)
Diablo 3 (coming)
Warcraft
Warcraft 2 (ToD)
Warcraft 3 (FT)
WoW
Starcarft (BW)
Starcraft 2 (coming)

Thats the biggest games in Korea. The newer the bigger.

But Blizzard havent done every big game but its Blizzard that have done most of them (exept for MMOs). The biggest non Blizzard is Valve with their CS which is based on HL.
