Blizzcon 2008 (Page 2 of 3)

Okay.. Anyone cool going?

(oh snap)

Look for me Viserys!  I will be running around with crew and probably Geoff Keighley

Go find out cool tidbits of info for us and then report back.  Go go go!

Can I have it then pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease?

What about your other other Dwarf buddy?

I am gay because I don't visit GTC vent anymore

I want ingame stuff too! 

Adam, my god, please get another beta cd key. When will beta drop?

No information on "when" afaik.

D3 was fun, we're gonna give it another go tomorrow so we can try out the other classes. I did a Witch Doctor, it was pretty interesting.

Didn't have time to finish the trial level though.

SC2 was more enjoyable than I expected, though I was a little surprised that there was no "creep colony" sort of things. As far as I can tell, only Hatcheries and Overlords can generate creep. The Zerg in general seem to have a much more natural "Zerg" feel, if that makes sense. I say this after having played them for only 20 minutes, and watching the tail half of a competitive player match (Terran v. Zerg).

Art looks great for both D3 and SC2.

I hope they show what the new dances in WOTLK are

So..

Press Passes rock again.. must reiterate that. (being able to stay on the computers and cut in line to the front is so crucial for Blizzcon)

SC2 is Starcraft.. but prettier.. and cleaner.  It will be amazing.. and no one will be dissapointed.  Zerg was my favorite.  The creep was nice looking I must say.  Took a while to figure out all the different build orders but most of it felt very familiar

Chris Sigaty is such a great guy to interview.  Extremely nice and funny.

Diablo 3 was fun.  It was interesting seeing so many different death animations for everything you killed and it was challenging still.  I did Witch Doctor and Wizard and both were quite fun.  Witch Doctor was interesting with the dogs and how they carried over skills as if they were attributes which was pretty interesting.  Skeleton king was hard I must say.. But still downed him alone by myself on my first run through just bsing really.

Fun times.  I made sure to grab a few things at the store.  I felt bad for the people who waited 6 hours in line yesterday in the store for stuff seeing how it took me 15 minutes today to get everything.  They had really only sold out on the Steins which were out within 4 hours.  I grabbed me a messenger bag, and 2 figures (the dranei paladin, and the human warrior)... They didnt have many horde choices but I guess I can order those online... they only hade the Troll Mage really..

The Jinx booth got more stuffed murlocs this morning but I think they were sold out again by mid-day.  They still had an insane long by the end of the night.. was pretty crazy.

Oh and the girl who won the costume contest brought back the turtle mount today.  We got an interview with her and apparently it is built out of a automatic wheelchair motor and costed her 3,000 dollars to make.  She also won last years Blizzcon costume contest.  So she is 2 for 2 for contests shes applied for at Blizzcon which is crazy.

Sucks your school doesn't give jewish holidays off. I had both thursday and friday off Not that it matters cos I am too poor to come and sitting at home in my PJ's.

The question is, have you met Adam or Bez yet? Does Bez actually talk in person? Is Adam a huge goober?
