I am looking forward to attending this year’s BlizzCon 2009. While it won’t be long now, just about a week away, running August 21st and 22nd it’s still something I really look forward to attending. If it’s like previous years (and we certainly have no reason to believe anything otherwise,) we’re expecting lots of big announcements for the remainder of this year. It’s every gaming enthusiasts, players, writers, techno-geek, and journalists dream and you can best believe they are all preparing to cover the event from top to bottom. One thing I am looking forward to this year is that I won’t be waiting in line for any merchandise, at least anything that has to do with the current games.
For those multi-millions of you that can’t attend. And for those of us that like to show up on the first day wearing what will only be available at the show, everything is available through the Blizzard Online Store. If you have a ticket to BlizzCon 2009, and are the original ticket buyer (or are very close to them) with the corresponding Battle.net account, you can go into the store and order the items. If you don’t have a ticket or are not the holder of the Battle.net account which purchased the ticket, you’re probably going to have a hard time seeing any of the items that will be available.
While there’s a few things that are unique to BlizzCon in the store, there’s nothing really amazing, that you have to feel your missing out on in advance. What I really want is a poster or shirt of the next expansion, and once again, I’m not surprised it isn’t in there. So I suppose I will be doing a little line-standing time after all (assuming they announce it, of course, as if).
