BlizzCon 2009: What we’re bringing

August 21st, 2009


We’re spending our day traveling to BlizzCon, so we figured while we were still in the air, we’d let you in on a little trade industry secret: what we’re bringing to the show. The gallery below offers you a look at just what it takes to turn out the kind of BlizzCon coverage we’ll be bringing you this weekend — the tech, the gear, and the, er, beverages.

We’re just hoping security lets us through with all of this stuff. Especially Alex — oh sure, the hammer’s fine, but that JCVD-endorsed caffeinated gum is the kind of thing that will get you pulled out of line. If he’s not there in time for the meetup tonight, you’ll know why.

BlizzCon 2008 beta codes now being accepted

April 26th, 2009

Our sister site Joystiq pointed out last night to their readers that the BlizzCon 2008 beta codes were now being accepted, and we thought it prudent to pass the news along to you.

You can enter the code over at http://www.blizzcon.com/beta and enjoy the satisfaction that you’ll get knowing in a few months (or less?) you’ll be playing the beta of StarCraft II.

The code took me a few others on staff a couple tries to enter. ‘B’ looks like ’8′, and ‘S’ looks like ’8′. You’ll probably need to try a few different permutations of the code until you get it right. When you enter the right code, you’ll get an email ‘confirmation’ that really just tells you that you’ve entered the key successfully. You don’t have to do anything further. The email is a little oddly worded though, and doesn’t look like your typical Blizzard email. So we’ve posted a copy of it after the break for folks.

BlizzCon 2009 is coming up on August 21st and 22nd of this year. We’ll be there in force again. Should be a blast!
