BlizzCon Is Coming!
The fourth BlizzCon gaming convention will be held at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California on August 21 and 22, featuring discussion panels hands-on playtime with upcoming games, tournaments, contests and more. Tickets for the event will go on sale May 16 for $125, and will be available at the official website. If you miss out on those tickets, a second block will go up on May 30.
"BlizzCon always offers us a great chance to meet players and celebrate our shared passion for gaming," said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We look forward to delivering another entertaining and memorable experience to all attendees and to those joining us from home."
If you can't make it out to sunny Cali in August, they will once again be offering BlizzCon as a Pay Per View event on DIRECTV for $39.95, which will deliver a minimum of eight hours of live HD coverage from the show floor each day, including exclusive interviews, demos and more. And if you're not a DIRECTV subscriber, you can also purchase the Pay Per View event as an internet stream for the same price. (Although if you do have DIRECTV, you'll get the internet stream as a free bonus) Anyone who orders the event will also receive this year's BlizzCon-exclusive World Of Warcraft in-game item... although they haven't said what it is yet.
I would just like to purchase a discounted stream of footage of all the cosplaying, please. That's always my favorite part!
