BlizzCon 2010 Announced

Blizzard announces BlizzCon 2010, saying this year's installment in the Blizzard-specific gaming convention will be held at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, CA on Friday, October 22 and Saturday, October 23, 2010. Pricing details and when tickets will go on sale will be revealed soon, which will be key for prospective attendees, since the show annually sells out almost instantly. "BlizzCon offers us a great opportunity to meet with our players and share our enthusiasm for gaming with one of the most passionate communities in the world," said Mike Morhaime, CEO of Blizzard Entertainment. "We’re looking forward to providing another great show filled with entertainment, competition, and the latest information about Blizzard Entertainment games."

Maybe they'll learn from it and actually sell a realistic number of tickets or make provisions for the size of the crowd this time around.

They oversell every single one of them, with the exception of the first, which was a small gathering compared to the rest, it gets worse every year.

They oversold the venue last year which made it suck if you wanted to actually do anything there (too many people = no seats for a lot of panels and really long waits for anything).

Maybe they'll learn from it and actually sell a realistic number of tickets or make provisions for the size of the crowd this time around.

Sure, email me through the board and it's all yours. Just don't ebay it please, that's just shitty when people do that. I'd rather someone actually plays it, I feel bad enough that I redeemed my own beta code and never play it.

I'd be glad to take it off your hands and use it.  
Truth is brutal. Prepare for pain.

Speaking of Blizzard games, I have an extra Starcraft 2 beta key if anyone wants it, Blizzard apparently emailed me one and most of my friends are already in.

Blizzard will finally present their new MMO.

I have a feeling that isn't going to happen for at least a year or two.

Ok here goes my predictions for this years Blizzcon.

SCII first expansion will be there and playable with the new single player as well as multi player content.

Blizzard will finally present their new MMO.

Also of course focus on the new releases of Cataclysm (october) and SCII (july).

Diablo III will be there as well with the full rooster of charachters announched. And hopefully a release date set summer 2011.


Expansion seems too early...I'm sure they'd like to, but this is Blizz time we're talking about.

MMO, I'd say a halfway decent chance of that, esp if Cat has shipped by then (which is looking more and more unlikely).

I'm sure they'll show Diablo 3, but I doubt they'll set a date on it...

 
RollinThundr Apr 17, 2013, 12:25: Eh really tossing stuff like that in there only to get your panties all bunched up. If you really want to call that trolling sure.

Mr. Tact Apr 17, 2013, 12:33: Pretty sure that's the definition of trolling...

Don't start anything you can't finish. Preferably to component atoms.

Much later this year than last year. I'm betting it is being timed around Cataclysm's release. Possible early November release, same as WoTL?

They seem to alternate between August and October.
