This is wonderful news, especially for the Cowboys, who are in need of some sort of cataclysm of their own to beat the Vikings. Kaboom.

Q_Q you mean I'm gonna have to watch a football game just so I can see the commercial? I thought I only had to do that during the superbowl.

What's this NFL game? Sounds bad-ass. Vikings fighting Cowboys? Win.

Listen everybody knows that the Viking goal post is closer to the center of the field than the cowboy one. plus their benches are closer too. They have a distinct advantage in that game.

Good thing that the game's blacked out in Denver. I wonder if marketing thought about that.
Maybe they should have done it during one of the baseball games ... just sayin'

Vikings vs. Cowboys, eh?
Blizzard should pony up some extra cash to make the teams change their names for this one game.
Vrykul vs. Tauren, anyone?

If the cinematic (even just a fragment of it) debut's on Sunday? Then what will be the big announcement at Blizzcon?

The fourth IP, of course. They wouldn't have set a release date for Cataclysm before Blizzcon if WoW was going to be taking center stage this year. It seems quite obvious to me. Perhaps I'm jumping to conclusions and being far too skeptical, but I'm mostly sure about this one. After all, I'm pretty good at detecting these things.

It's okay, that Bazinga is completely necessary. I hope I can get the rest of the team to see this and show up Sunday.
I hear Brett's not coming anyways, and he's told AP to do the same.

I'm hoping for a new IP announcement but I would think they would have left some time in the panels section to get into some detail. If it is center stage, then why announce it then plan no time to generate a buzz about it.

I would imagine it is a Fox thing; even if the Cowboys arent showing in your area, it would probably be shown during whichever 3:15 game is on on Fox in your city.

Vikings are going to need just as much help.

Too bad he's probably a Niners fan anyways... I'd rather be me than him any day.
