The lights are on
When you accept a quest in World of Warcraft, sometimes it will send you to the far reaches of Azeroth where feral beasts and the enemy faction lurks. When you purchase a ticket to BlizzCon after they go on sale June 25, it will send you to Anaheim, California to converge with other gamers who love to geek out over Blizzard games.The convention takes place October 22 and 23 at the Anaheim Convention Center. Blizzard’s most loyal fans will converge there to lose their minds over StarCraft II, Diablo 3, and World of Warcraft’s Cataclysm expansion. There will also be panels, tournaments, contests, and demos of upcoming Blizzard games."BlizzCon is a unique opportunity for our players to meet one another, strengthen the friendships they've formed online, and have a great time celebrating a shared passion for gaming together with Blizzard employees," said Blizzard CEO and cofounder, Mike Morhaime. "For those who can't attend, we're pleased to be providing an unprecedented level of access to the activities and attractions that BlizzCon has to offer."Prepare to shell out $150 for your ticket to fun, which can be purchased at the BlizzCon website. You’ll have two shots at gaining admission to the show; June 2 at 7:00pm and June 5 at 10:00am (pst). If you’ve already got a Battle.net account (which if you’re planning to go to BlizzCon, you should), you can look forward to a simplified ticket purchasing process.

Aw... I wanna go.
I doubt I'll go but I'll watch the coverage on G4 :) have gun GI.
One day I'll make it to this but not this year.
I wonder if people hangout and play old - school Blizz games like D2.
Mmmm, moving semi near by here this week, may have to go this time around.
Nope. Not interested.
id love to go one year XD maybe next if i plan now epicness XD
Doesn't Blizzard have a new MMO in development? I wonder if they'll premiere it at BC this year.
If not.....well, we'll still have Diablo III. They might have some of the other Starcraft II installments as well.
....And I wonder who the guests will be this time?
Might be fun to go with a few buddies. Doubt we all have the funds for the trip, though.
Nahhh, I didnt go to BlizzCon last year personally, but the coverage I saw was kinda lame. You guys will be there so ill just let you guys tell me how it went.
@ Adonisus
I was wondering the same thing, I thought I had heard some time ago that Blizz was working on another MMO. If this is true, then it sort of sucks, because I don't want WoW to be up against stiff competition like this (and I'm a WoW player btw, lol).
cool
Man, this is so tempting. I'd love to get more time with Diablo 3, plus I could see myself scalping the WoW swag since I don't play it anymore and making enough to cover the costs of the trip.
This is going to be a big year for Diablo 3 announcements... I think I'm gonna go - if I can land a ticket.
that's why there is g4
thats one bada$$ karrigan.... btw I want to go ....
