With BlizzCon 2009 quickly approaching, everybody's getting excited to see what goes down at the big event this week. While we wait for all the news to unfold, here's a look at the official floor plan for this year's BlizzCon:
As you can see, it's larger than ever before, so it should be a blast for all in attendance. I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I still wonder if Blizzard will use a portion of Hall D to show us their unannounced game. A lot of people were pondering that back when it was first announced that they'd have an extra hall. The last time they added on an additional hall, they shared the Diablo 3 demo with us. So just because it's not on the map, I'm not entirely convinced they don't have more up their sleeves in store for us with the front area of Hall D. What do you guys think?
In other Diablo 3 news, for those of you planning on entering the Diablo 3 Unique Item Contest, Bashiok recently posted a close-up shot of the prize:
As they stated on the Diablo Twitter feed, Bashiok's hand is not included as part of the prize. Damn!
I would love to go to Blizzcon one day. Too bad I live in Chicago. It should be a great time.
I'm contemplating whether or not to watch it on Paperview online or just read about it.
What are other people's thoughts on this? You guys gonna order it?
There's so much to see there, I'm sure. I still can't get over the fact that there's a Diablo section. For so many years, it's felt like we've been left in the dust. That all looks very exciting and again all the best to the people who can make it
Awww well if bashioks hand aint in the deal then I dont want it D:

If you want to arrange it
This world you can change it
If we could somehow make this
Christmas thing last
By helping a neighbor
Or even a stranger
And to know who needs help
You need only just ask
Hahaha sounds good. I can't wait for any D3 news they have to share!!!
P.S. What is the RT Tournament Stage?
You mean the RTS Tournament Stage? I would think it's just for tournaments concerning their RTS games, like SCI and WCIII. If you are going to ask if SCII would be playable in a tournament there, though, I think not. I would say it will probably just be confined to the SCII area with demo plays for attendees.
Mockery, is that a pin? It looks rather nifty, none-the-less. I could pin it on my tux during one of my performances and see if anyone notices I have a demon on my breast while I'm singing some Christmas Swingle or something.
That pin looks sweet. I like how they made the layout look like an old map. I second that it's nice to finally see a sections for Diablo....ahhhh.
I did do the PPV order, I figured what the hell; I'm out of work right now anyways would be nice to see things as they happen.
Anyone notice on the schedule that they have a Gameplay panel on the first day? Hopefully that means a new gameplay video. Here is the schedule on MMO Champion....
Yep, Diablo's finally getting the due recognition it deserves and that pin looks great. I'm so excited for this. Not that I'm going to Blizzcon or anything but we can be sure we'll have lots of much-needed Diablo 3 updates and that's always a cause for celebtation!

Blizzcon's starting Friday right?
Totally. Diablo definitely deserves it! A great series.
Yup yup. Friday is day 1 of the 2 days of Blizz Con. Woohoo
I wonder how noone notices this. there is a WoW playing booth but what are they going to play? WOTLK? I guess this might yet another clue that they will announce the new WoW expansion
True.
Hi guys, haven't posted in awhile.
What's most curious to me is the Map. Not whats on it, but the theme... very diablo-ish.
I'm hoping (based on twitter-tweets) that TWO classes will be revealed! very awesome!

At least you aren't on the opposite side of the planet...
Could someone please explain what we know Blizzard is going to be releasing at Blizzcon (two new character classes)? I've never used Twitter before and I've got to admit, I'm having a difficult time navigating it and figuring out what's going on.

It'll all be available on You-tube a day or two after the event, I wouldn't worry about figuring out Twitter.

nobody knows for sure what exact information is going to be given. Any talk is puerly speculation and guesses. The only thing known for sure is what type of panels and the schedule which you can find on blizzards site.

This is why I don't like conventions, or even stupid beer-fests (or as you americans understand it- chili cook-off competitions)
True.

I want to wear that pin on my work uniform.
