Blizzard Announcement on Saturday

May 16th, 2007 – direkobold

Blizzard has given notice that they’re going to be making a big announcement this Saturday in Korea. If I had to choose I’d probably want it to be Diablo III, or some new world (very unlikely), but my money is on “World of Starcraft”. Starcraft is huge in South Korea, so right off the bat it seems unlikely to be a non-starcraft game (another RTS, i.e. Starcraft 2, would be the other possibility). Blizzard is in a class by itself, so I’ll definitely be picking it up whatever it is, and I personally know a hundred people just like me, so whatever it is, it should be a success. Recently they seem to be announcing closer to the actual release, so my other hope would be that whatever it is, it’s coming soon.

I’m not very good at waiting

Late Edit: Further research revealed that the countdown to “question mark” front back of Blizzard.com is mirrored on the site starcraft2.com. Too bad of all the possible game announcements that’s the one I’m the least excited about…

    I think his point is, why would they have a mirrored site of a game they don’t have? www.diablo3.com isn’t mirrored there.

    Starcraft2 would totally kick Diablo3’s ass anyway.

    Whoopidy doo another demon genocide. I wouldn’t buy D3.

    Of all the Blizzard games I’ve played, I’ve spent more time playing Starcraft than any other - even WoW. It is by far, the most fun to play RTS to date. Sure, others are prettier, others have more units, the story is longer, whatever. No other game is as well balanced, as well put together, as well suited to multi-player play as is Starcraft. I worry that Starcraft II will end up like Warcraft 3 - too many units to manage, too much going on, and not enough simple action. But yea, I’m with you Dire, if it’s from Blizzard, I’m buying it.
