Early Peek At This Year's BlizzCon Pass
Oh ho ho. With BlizzCon still a few days away, one Kotaku reader has already snagged the attendance badge featuring Tyrael and sent along a picture for you and I (and you too over there) to look at. So look, look, look.

Will Diablo III Be Playable At BlizzCon?
While waiting for my turn to click-click through an all too brief taste of StarCraft II, I asked Blizzard reps the inevitable "Since Diablo III isn't here, I assume will it be playable at BlizzCon?" After all, when the sequel to StarCraft was announced, it was publicly playable just four months later at BlizzCon 2007. Surely, we'll be getting our hands on the Barbarian and Witch Doctor in October... right? More » -

Blizzard Is Tired Of You Asking When StarCraft II Will Be Done
And by "you", they probably mean "me," as I was wondering the same thing. Talking to Executive Vice President of Product Development Frank Pearce and PR Manager Bob Colayco at Games Convention, my prying into the current status of StarCraft II didn't put us any closer to a hard date. More »

BlizzCon Tickets Sell Out In Minutes, But All Hope Is Not Lost
Ticket sales for this year's BlizzCon went up, then down, earlier today as the bulk of those made available by Blizzard sold out within minutes of going live.

StarCraft II Hands-On Impressions
At BlizzCon, Blizzard presented StarCraft II in two distinct, delicious flavors: single player and multiplayer, with demo stations in the hundreds consistently occupied by BlizzCon attendees. The single player demo allowed for a 20 minute, one versus one match with the option of playing as Terrans vs. Protoss or vice versa. I played a number of games with each race, trying out different tech tree progressions and strategies—somewhat difficult to fully pursue in such a short time (and with rusty skills). More » -

Warcraft Movie Details Revealed At BlizzCon
At BlizzCon today, representatives from Blizzard and Legendary Pictures hosted a panel on the upcoming WarCraft film adaptation, giving attendees an update on the film's progress and addressing fan concerns with a follow-up Q&A session. On hand were Paul Sams and Chris Metzen Blizzard Entertainment and, from Legendary Pictures, CEO Thomas Tull and Chief Creative Officer Jon Jashni. In addition to confirming that the Warcraft movie will be a live action film, with a yet to be determined level of computer generated environments and effects, Jashni told the crowd they're still working toward a 2009 release date.

What Are You Playing This Weekend?
I'm going to keep this one brief (yet again). I'm also going to rub a little something in the Kotaku collective face, as I will be playing StarCraft II this weekend—and lots of it. That's 'cause I'm at BlizzCon, right now, pounding convention center floor, covering the Con for Kotaku. If it's any consolation, I'm running on four hours sleep. Upon my return from the Anaheim Convention Center, the only games I'll be playing are Ninja Gaiden Sigma (almost... there...) and Picross DS. More » -
