far too early for a WoW beta announcement. or maybe not. wc3 expansion? those usually take a while... ummm... i'm going to conclude that blizzard.com was hacked and yes, it will be pr0n.

The extreme optimist in me hopes that it's anouncing Starcraft 2. I'm not holding my breath

They are announcing something, something big I would imagine.


New Product line maybe, something to surprise us all cause it seems Starcraft 2 is not likely and i too think its too early for a WC3 Expansion and they wouldnt make that big a deal about it would they?

Wait and see :)

In 19 hours?

Isn't that kinda soon....I'd expect that there would be some buzz going on, right? Then again, I haven't really been reading anything on it.

IDK why every1 liked SC i think it has less strategy than WC3. I really like WC3 didnt really like SC that much, guess its just personal preference :)

Rumors abound say its the long rumored Blizzard Console game.

Even though Starcraft is HUGE in Korea. TGS, is the Tokyo Game Show, PC games are RARE there, and the majority of those shown there are not US titles.

I can understand Korea is close to Japan, but if IMHO it would be stupid to announce Starcraft 2 at TGS. Much smarter to announce at GDC or E3.

Normally the bulk of TGS are the console Co.s hocking theire latest and greatest at the last gaming convention before the holiday season.

They released SC for the N64, didn't they?

Anyway, a pure console game from Blizzard would be sweet, as long as they release it on the Cube.

This could be something as silly as a new site design. It's been done, don't be too shocked. I hope I'm wrong. Then again, I wasn't a huge SC player.

I dunno. MS has been rumored to be trying to buy Viviendi Interactive, from Viviendi Universal which is trying to sell it off. VI is basically Blizzard and Sierra. Then again, they also tried to buy Nintendo, Sega, Rare, Midway and just about everyone heh...

Nope its a game, and Bill Roper of Blizzard has said(according to VoodooExtreme) it is NOT Starcraft 2.
