Blizzard's Big Gaming Announcement? - GoFuckYourself.com

Does anyone know what new title Blizzard announced at the Tokyo convention? I know it should be coming sometime today, and for some damn reason I can't get their main site to load.

I bet its to talk about their new ownership since Vivendi pulled an Enron and Worldcom over in France... Hey had to liquidate tons of non core businesses.

Blizzard. Non-core? Every time they've released a game it's been the number one seller for the year of release.

How could any StarCraft game suck!?

Blizzard is a great company, every game is outstanding.

THEY'RE THE BEST period

Quick update

At 6:00PM EST they had 2 hours until the announcement.

I don't ask for much in life...

...but please let them announce StarCraft 2.

I bet they are farther along on their version of the EQ killer and will announce they are going into Beta for it....

FlyingIguana · 09-19-2002, 04:42 PM

didn't they already unoffically anounce sc2 as their next rts title?

They've held games back MONTHS after predicted release dates to make sure the game(s) are flawless - not many companies possess that kind of discipline. Everytime they put out a title, you just KNOW it'll be good.

SpeedoPanda - just becuase Blizzard releases great games that sell well doesn't mean that its a core business of its parent company Vivendi Universal. I was just messing around anyways. Thought it was funny when I read they had been misreporting earnings. That news was released right after the news of the MCI debacle.

I love Blizzard games, I play WarCraft III a couple hours everyday hehe Also work on our project Savage - www.s2games.com and of course our multiplayer, game info HQ and publishing arm www.iGames.com
