I went to that party, but I must've gotten there too early or something.

While everyone else uses your room to sneak out or to have a quickie in your bed.

The costumes this year will be pretty epic.

Costumes are dumb, Diablo 3 beta code info is all that matters.

We didn't get beta codes last year, so I'm not really expecting any this year either.

I go with the hope for a beta code, and the expectation that they'll announce they canceled Diablo 3 in favor if bringing back SC:Ghost.

It would be foolish to give away Beta keys after one year's keys were never used.

I think they gave out D3 keys last year and the beta still hasn't happened so it would be a bad idea to give the mass of probably the same people keys again?

Yeah last year was the first year where no keys were given out.
AFAIK the other 3 times, the keys were used. Burning Crusade beta, Wrath beta, SC2 beta.

You know, I punched in my SC2 beta code thing and NEVER got into the beta. Poor me!
EDIT: That said, that MAY have been the reasoning for not doing keys last year. SC2 beta hadn't started when last year's BlizzCon happened, and that was the only beta coming up that a key made sense for ... but everyone from the year before already HAD a SC2 beta key.

So....they have said for the past 2 years that Bilzz is going to announce their new MMO. Think it will finally happen?

Cataclysm, duh! Alternative snark: World of Starcraft. Play a zerging as you rise through the ranks and eventually get twoshot by a zealot during tier 10 raiding.

I thought it was supposed to be a brand new IP?

given that Heart of the Swarm is supposed to be set for 2012 and we already know all about Cataclysm, the only 'big news' things that seem obvious for them to be able to dump on us this year are either Diablo 3 beta or release date, or a first look at the new MMO stuff.
That said the schedule is up and there's nothing about the new MMO on there - but they've been tricky about that sort of thing before with D3.

They wouldn't shoot Cataclysm in the foot by announcing anything about the MMO this early. I'm pretty sure this will be either an off year, where they announce the rest of the Diablo 3 classes (they did that one year where they had nothing to say), or they'll announce the Diablo 3 beta, or something about Heart of the Swarm.

Oh right, I forgot we were still missing classes. It occurs to me we haven't seen the Cataclysm cinematic yet, so that will probably be in there.

I hope they go back to a vanilla/TBC style cinematic. The WotLK one was pretty, but it wasn't as fun.

You know it is just going to be all RAWR DEATHWING and no player models in it though.
EDIT: Although, maybe they will make it about the new races, that would imply more like TBC. I can hope.

New D2 classes are cool, but if that is the epitome of their announcements I'll be disappointed.

By that definition it would be more Earth and Beyond, which was shit.

Actually, if they announce a new D2 expansion with new classes that WOULD be pretty awesome...

I'm more or less so confused in my own logic at this point that I'm not even sure whether I really meant D2 or D3. Anywho, if they don't announce some new IP I suppose I would be fine with the relevant D3 news, but not as excited.

My wife just reminded me of the WOW movie because it was mentioned in her social media textbook. Perhaps that will be our big reveal.

You know, they COULD'VE had some of those "oh fuck the world is ending arghghghgh" scenes include characters from the first cinematic and it would've been almost perfect. Perfection is impossible, of course, since apparently Metzen is going to do Deathwing's narration in his best approximation of the horrible Lich King voice.

After thinking on it, I think that is the most disappointing opening cinematic from Blizz that I have ever seen.
