The Mists of Pandaria

Today is the day that thousands of Blizzard freaks entered into the realm of Blizzcon. News about Warcraft, StarCraft and Diablo is announced at this annual event at Anaheim, California—and the news today was nothing short of amazing.

Diablo III  took center stage as Chris Metzen hyped up the crowd for the latest trailer for the game:

Then they showed a trailer for Blizzard DOTA that will be coming out ‘soonish’:

Next up was StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm where, after watching the trailer, I need to change my pants:

And finally war is coming in the latest expansion for World of Warcraft where both the Horde and the Alliance will find themselves in a new mystic land of Pandas with World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria:

The biggest news of the day came when Mike Morhaime announced that Diablo III will be free for those who are current World of Warcraft players when they sign up to the World of Warcraft Annual Pass, which can be paid monthly. Not only will you get Diablo III for free, but you will also receive the Tryael Charger for your characters and a guaranteed beta entry for the new World of Warcraft expansion.

I am one geeked out Blizzard fanboy right now. The news that came out of this Blizzcon is truly amazing in my head. I cannot wait to pick up all Blizzard has to offer—which will limit the time I have with my woman. Kiss my social life good-bye.

    Koreish What the fuck were those units in SC2 trailer. Why in the name of God would I ever want my fast Hellions to transform in to slow walkers? Dustin Browder get your RA3 units out of my StarCraft.

    Koreish None of that really helps the fact that a bunch of RA3 units were imported into StarCraft. The Terran Shredder is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. The Protoss Oracle is going to be stupid OP as it stands now. And now two of the Best AoE units Zerg has can move underground? I suppose it's to early to say much but I'm not a big fan of the majority of these changes.

    I'd like to hear what some of the pros think but they don't post on TL hardly anymore.

Howdy, Stranger!
