Here I am sitting at home during day 2 of BlizzCon. I am too damn tired to go early in the morning but I’ll be heading out soon enough, probably around 1PM or something. Anyhow let me tell you about my adventures in the wonderful world of Blizzard. Lots of things to do if you love Blizzard stuff, especially if you have money. You could watch the Koreans beat on each other all day in StarCraft tournaments or people from around the world beat each other in WarCraft 3 tournaments. Stand in line to hit up the BlizzCon store where you can purchase all sorts of Blizzard merchandise as well as stand in line to be able to play Wrath of the Lich King and StarCraft 2.

If you are a StarCraft fanatic (me!) then you can whore yourself out to StarCraft 2 all day long, the only limitation is that the matches are set to a 20 minute time limit. I played just once yesterday but when I head back today that’s pretty much all I will be doing until the concert begins. I can tell you right now the game is fucking SOLID. The only thing left to do is balance everyone out and unveil the Zerg units. The line for StarCraft 2 looked brutal at first, but after standing in it for a bit I noticed that it just kept flowing. It was not a mismanaged line at all, what they could have done instead is to load up more rows of PC’s just so more people can hop on at the same time. About the lines, there were two of them. One line was for playing with other people, mainly in a 2 on 2 fashion. The other line was for “single player” where if you are alone with don’t have any friends there, you get to battle it out against the game AI (aka Computer player).

I have yet to stand in the Wrath of the Lich King line, I don’t know if I want to even do that. But I did go around taking pictures of the convention if you want to view those. I have resized them all to 1024×768 so the WordPress can make a thumbnail, it doesn’t want to make a thumbnail if its in my original size of 2048×1536 and I don’t feel like rifling through to make little thumbs for all of them. If you want to see the pictures in their full glory, then hit up my photo album.
