BlizzCon 2009 Opening Ceremony liveblog
Here we go again with another liveblog kiddos. This time it’s BlizzCon 2009.
Be sure and come back to this space for the Opening Ceremony of BlizzCon, and maybe, just maybe we will hear more about the rumored Cataclysm expansion for World of Warcraft, updates on StarCraft II and Diablo III – and who knows – Blizzard may announce its secret MMO.
One can only dream.
The schedule says that doors open for attendees around 10:00am PST/1:00pm EST – that’s around 6:00pm for the UK and things will get started around 11:30 PST/2:30 EST/7:30 UK.
So, throw on a pot of coffee and join us for up-to-the-minute liveblogging of the Opening Ceremony after the break.

I bet:
4 new WoW classes. 2 new expansions, World of warcraft 2, new professions, new quests, new PVP maps and mechanics.
2 starcraft screenshots and a diablo 3 trailer. :p

This could be the night that finally convinces me to try and get a fucking great gaming laptop, just for Stacraft II hopefully.

To Blizzard’s credit, they often make their games to be able to run on sub-standard machines, so you might not even have to.
It’s not going to be Crysis, lets put it that way.

For those that don’t know yet, the fourth Diablo class has been unofficially leaked.
It’s the Monk.

I’m really excited about more Diablo 3 news
Kinda dissapointed that the new class will be monk, i’d rather heard news about there being a paladin or some kind of other class (like an archer f.e. )
