blizzard counting down to something...hidden message: "SOMEBODY CALL AN EXTERMINATOR"

it's probably something stupid, like some game that is already out on pc is coming to the x-box, PS2 or something of the like.....
 
I don't get the whole Tokyo Game Show part of this. An American PC developer does not choose TGS to debut a new PC game. Hell, no American game developer period would choose TGS to debut a new game.

I really dunno what this announcement is going to be, but I have a feeling it is going to involve a console, and possible the Japanese market.

True, but...

Hmm so ok maybe it does make sense after all 🙂 But what would also make sense then would be the game being Starcraft 2, since half the copies of the first one sold worldwide were sold in Korea.

Somebody call for an exterminator

What could it mean? Zerg? :Q

that would be a very strong sign for a starcraft family related product...

go firebats, go! 🙂
 
It does it every 30min starting at hour:30:second

It does say "Somebody call for an exterminator"

The pattern is that it spells one letter every minute, and skips a minute for a break in the words.

So, the blurry picture is most likely bug related i.e. zerg. This is more promising than I thought...

edit: it also refreshes around the 26second mark every so often

w00t definitely starcraft related if this is true 😀

edit damn too late
 
I just read another post on there and their admin says it's funny how Blizzard calls it a "product announcement" rather then game or title :Q

Interesting! 😀
 
although.... it is kind of silly to get excited. i mean it will be like 3 years before the actual game comes out.
