Blizzpagewatch: Day 6

As Blizzard's game parade draws to an end, we return to your favorite game and mine, World of Warcraft. I must say this is a pretty boring image for them to have picked, although it does capture what the game world felt like around launch time for me. I didn't know talents from skills, epics from rares, or Ragnaros from my class trainer in Ironforge. But I did know dwarves and night elves, since my first character was a dwarf (hunter) and even back then, night elves were ubiquitous. One more day...

They are just using the box art from all the games.

It's gonna be SC2, mark my words.

I've noticed for the first 20 or so comments of next Blizzard game speculation that nobody's really mentioned the next expansion pack for World of Warcraft. It would be a perfect time to announce a possible new game as well, but we were promised an attempt at an expansion a year. This also ties in with the expansion2 files people are finding in the 2.1 PTR pack.

I doubt that the new game will be an expansion. Their entire timeline does not involve expansions, which leads me to believe that this will be an entirely new game.
It would look really silly to say "We made WC1, WC2, WC3, SC, D1, D2, WoW, and now... the second WoW expansion!"
It just wouldn't make any sense.

How Funny would it be when you go to blizzards web page tomorrow and you get nothing, Zero, Nothing New, no new game thanks for stopping by have a great day.
God that would be funny

Yah i'm expecting blizzard to do something shocking, if not why build up all this PR and hype about it?
Also I highly doubt it'll be the announcement of another WoW expansion, bit to early for that, however August at Blizzcon, i'm sure would be the time for it if any.

WoW Mobile.

Starcraft 2... I have it directly from two friends that work for Blizzard, and friends that work in the gaming/tech industry.

With all I've read on this I'm kind of surprised that only a few have suggested that it might be a totally new franchise.

StarCraft 2 would be by far the most logical next step in the progression

Ghost?
Gazoo May 18th 2007 2:40PM
Go to the BESTBUY (US) site and do a search a for the keyword 'starcraft'. Tell me what you find...:)
The cats already out of the bag.

Well, I see some hits for SC:Ghost for last-gen systems...that seems off to me.
Antenora May 18th 2007 2:52PM
Diablo III...Diablo III...
Antenora May 18th 2007 2:52PM
Starcraft Ghost was a game Blizzard bagged a long time ago..so yes, it does seem off, and it was for last gen systems because they bagged it so the devs could work on the MMO we all know and love.

it's starcraft ghost. best buy already has it for sale....how lame.
Sam May 18th 2007 3:57PM
Something's not right about the Best Buy ads on the website.
I used to work for Best Buy. We've never sold a game for $47.49. It's always been typical pricing. I'll ask the guys tonight to see what's up.
Plus, it's nowhere else to be seen other than bestbuy.com. Circuit City, Wal-Mart, GameStop, or anyone else doesn't have it.
Surely, their not resurrecting a dead game for their huge surprise for tomorrow. And in less than a month away from the announcement? It's just too much like Sony pulling their "Ridge Racer! RIDGE RACER!!!" stunt when asked about exclusive games. I have more faith in the Blizz than that.
Let's all pray that it's not Ghost.

*shakes head* You people are dense. Its the cover art, just like for all the other games.
Eliah Hecht May 18th 2007 7:04PM
Gimme a break, I haven't seen a WoW box forever...
