Blizzard announces new Molten Core console version

The conversion of WoW Insider to HKO Insider has thus far been an unprecedented success, but that said, some news is so amazing, so massively genre defining, that we have to report it regardless of any harm to ourselves or accusations of breaking the site format. The Bard class was one such announcement, and this is another. Ladies and Gentlemen, Molten Core: The Console Version.
This, to say the least, is a major step forward for Blizzard. With everything from the ground-breaking Aggro Every Bears technology that is sure to revolutionize the Skinning tradeskill when they bring it to the main WoW game, to the amazing 8 direction movement system, this game should easily boost the Atari 2600 past lesser consoles such as the Wii and the PS3. Be sure to check out the official website, especially the concept art. It's amazing how Blizzard has realized it in full stunning 2D glory. I'm already planning to reserve my Collector's Edition copy, because those cellophane TV overlays sound hella sweet. We're sure the news on this amazing game will only keep coming, so stay tuned to HKO Insider for all your HKO and WoW:MC news!

Holy smokes, you are slow on this one. And yes, please, enough of the HKO stuff.

I actually originally posted about this at 4:50am Eastern Time this morning. I just felt that such an epic trailer deserved a new, separate post.

Amazing.

And don't forget the mindblowing 192i resolution!

Seriously, read previous comments regarding your HKO posts.
Let there be a line please.

I don't understand what the big deal is... arn't you all just playing your Death Knights anyways?
I've barely been paying attention to WoW Insider (and my job) all day long.

very funny stuff...
but seriously if this is what Blizz is doing rather than making sure that the relms arent down for 13 hours on a mini patch day.... they need to slapped by numerous fish

No, this is what some guys in the art department did a few months ago when the topic of "hey, what do we want to do for next year's april fools day".
Run the business execution support staff are very different resources.

"WITH SOUND"
Hahahaha
Todd Apr 1st 2008 3:41PM
HILARIOUS!
D Apr 1st 2008 3:46PM
I couldn't find it in me to laugh at this. All it represents are resources not being used to address the core survivability, and healing power and efficiency issues of my class. Screw Blizz and their "funny".

Because the game developers are clearly working on video trailers!
You're an idiot, and a douchebag. No offense.
doyesac Apr 1st 2008 4:21PM
I hear the healing efficiency, core survivability and that other thing you mentioned are all fixed in the Molten Core. So you should be happy happy! (joy joy!) about this news!
Or you could just sit back and, you know... get some perspective on things.

Skinning bears.... should aggro EVERY bear within 40 yards!!!
doyesac Apr 1st 2008 4:22PM
No. every BEARS!
L2grammer, I mean, grammer are seriuz biznez!

I'd seriously like to see if anyone is super sluth enough to dig up the name, class, and realm of the character who originated "skinning a bear should agro every bears in a 40 yard radius"
I'll post it here later tonight for those who are like and bored that the realms were taking so long to come online.
It's also cool how blizzard is implementing quotes from /epicthreads to their April fools pages. "Melt face" was used in the guitar hero page which was also part of an /epicthread.

Apparently they spent most of their time on this great 4/1 prank and not enough time on the patch and servers.
Rich Apr 1st 2008 5:41PM
