By hack on 07.Jul.2011 facebook_16 twitter_16 delicious_16 bitacoras

A very good news for all fans of these sagas, perhaps these acts of presence of both franchises can finally see the end dates of the betas and commercial.

Many of us that we are expecting the third part of Diablo III, those epic adventures that Blizzard always offers us unique and fun, but you just have to look back and see what was both the first as the great Diablo Diablo II.

Other franchises that will see the "first growth" StarCraft II, where we play all the vile Zerg campaign.

We hope that as little announce the dates of the betas, because as you know, the BlizzCon still a little far and to be held in October, namely 21 and 22.

In August we will have an appointment to see this show with their news and announcements, 5 intense days in which many can try games announced at E3 and see what awaits us along this year.

Blizzard Retrospective

By hack on 24.Jun.2011 facebook_16 twitter_16 delicious_16 bitacoras

Some time ago my friend (I say friend, buddy! Brother) David crossed my facebook a video on Blizzard's history told by its own people.

For most of us, Blizzard has always been a company a success and unquestionable quality in each and every one of their projects and, although sometimes hard to get much done with some of their games ( exam - Diablo 3 - ahem), in the end we ended up falling to its charms.

48 minutes This documentary shows us a company that is as normal as others, beginning with a fairly complicated and serious problems, and, thanks to the work, effort, and decisions made at the right time, have grown into the great company it is today.

It is worthwhile to sit and enjoy the history behind Blizzard Entertainment (you can see subtitles by pressing CC on YouTube).

With the leak of the first trailer for StarCraft II: Heart of the Swarm, a new video where we see our dear Kerrigan in Action (Powah Zerg!).

Summary Action Conference

By hack on 10.May.2011 facebook_16 twitter_16 delicious_16 bitacoras
Activision-Blizzard 2011

Last night, Activision-Blizzard, had a little talk about their titles, sales and possible release dates that could occur this year, do not expect much because Diablo 3 is not a date, but at least we have a "possible "release date.

Blizzard Entertainment data:

- Major Funding will result in the first quarter of 2011

  • Revenue growth.
  • Increased income from operations.

- World of Warcraft: Record sales following the launch of Cataclysm in USA / Europe

  • The number of subscribers in March returned to the levels of pre-release Cataclysm in the West.
  • Plan to continue to offer new content to give more power to the community.
  • Our partner Nerease is working to implement Cataclysm in China as soon as possible.
  • Recently launched value added services in China

- StarCraft II

  • Launched in China in the first quarter of 2011. and is one of our largest communities of Starcraft II.
  • We are working hard to launch the first expansion, "Heat of the Swarm."

- Diablo III:

  • The whole company is beginning to be tested.
  • The beta would launch the third quarter of 2011 approximately.
  • There is no release date for Diablo III but is working hard to launch this year.

I thought the quarter included four months of the year, but it seems to refer to quarters, so that the beta might reach from 1 July to 30 September, is quite close, but not enough. At least we know that Blizzard is working hard to bring this year's Diablo III, but hey, knowing them will not see it until next year at least.

There is also another embodiment VIP for the wealthiest, if you pay about $ 500 may attend the BlizzCon event and go to a gala dinner where the profits go to Children's Hospital in California.

Finally, the modality for the poor (including me) can follow the BlizzCon from the PC thanks to video streaming for € 39.99.
