Blizzcon 2008 DVD production panel reveals WoW tidbits
Here's a secret gem from BlizzCon from our sister site, Big Download: The DVD Production panel. The DVD Production team, despite the name, actually oversees most of the video produced by or at Blizzard. That means that they had a hand in the South Park episode "Make Love Not Warcraft," as well as the "What's your Game" and "Lawgiver" commercials.
They also work on the gameplay trailers from World of Warcraft, and walked us through the creative process for the patch 2.1 Black Temple trailer, revealing some interesting lore behind Akama's betrayal. Finally, they revealed that they were the force behind the Wrath Gate cinematic. It's no wonder they were able to make such an epic cut scene though: One of their team members was a member of Rufus Cubed Productions, the creations of the epic machinima Return.
There's some other nice information from the panel, including the real identity of the villain from "Make Love Not Warcraft" and a preview of the lore of Diablo 3. Be sure to go check it out at Big Download!

lol it is, like they said in there, there are a few things off about it, but honestly, its one of the better, if not, best episodes of South Park made as of yet.

Watch it free(and legally) at www.southparkstudios.com
Just to direct you to a legit place to watch it, and in good quality.

I was going to post the link over to SouthParkStudios.com but RogueJedi86 beat me to it. You can view any South Park episode on there for free and it's all hosted by the real South Park guys and Comedy Central, so you're not doing it through some sleazy torrent site.
We got one of our episodes on TV that was cutting in and out and my wife hadn't seen it, so we pulled it up on the web and finished watching it. Good quality and free. Can't beat that.
