StarCraft II Beta Impressions

After playing the StarCraft II Beta for a while, it still holds up as a solid successor to the original StarCraft.

WoW: Tier 10 Mage

Thanks Blizzard for making the mage not look as bad as the rogue in Tier 10 gear. Hopefully it’ll look better on a female blood elf.

Now you can easily guess what class I play.

Blizzcon 2009

I’m attending Blizzcon for the first time this year!

Currently staying at the Hyatt, but the wireless connection I’m using is a bit unstable so I might not be making future posts until after Blizzcon (I’ll try my best to do so though).

I’ll be attending the Opening/Closing ceremonies for sure along with the finals for the WoW Arena and Starcraft tournaments. Haven’t decided on which panels to go to yet, but they should be interesting.

Probably going to pick up my badge/goodie bag later tonight when it’s cooler. The smog in Los Angeles is ugh.

Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty

Since Blizzcon 2009 is coming up, I thought I’ll post this new video showing the Starcraft 2 Terran Campaign.

That battle cruiser is so overpowered; it annihilated that mass swarm of zerglings in mere seconds! Good thing they didn’t have any scourges there, right? I’m really looking forward to this game; Blizzard has done great work with the Starcraft universe and this will hopefully live up to its predecessor.

I was almost certain that Blizzard would release Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty this year, but it unfortunately got pushed back to next year. >_<

It’s also disappointing to have to buy 3 separate games since they are releasing the Terran, Protoss, and Zerg campaigns separately. $150? Ouch.
