Cataclysm Countdown: The Shattering [Contest]

23 November 2010 | 1 Comment » | Mordil

Missed BlizzCon this year? Didn’t buy your ticket in time for the epic loot you get? Then I’ve got what you need!

All you need to do, Lore Hounds is this:

  • Find 1 Easter Egg. That’s right, just 1. You know we’ve got them. We know we’ve got them. We know, you know, we know we’ve got them. Find ‘em. They may be in a video, posts (as references and tags), or elsewhere. They may be intentional, or sometimes even unintended. If you think it’s an Easter Egg, chances are it will count. Good luck.
  • Follow @LoreHound on twitter (if you are not doing so already!)
  • Tell me, in your own words what it means to be a Lore Hound. Creativity counts here — make it hit it home. Try to make me cathartic.
  • You must have at least one WoW character that has earned the achievement [Tripping The Rifts] (this is WoW loot we’re giving away, afterall!!).

This time, the loot at stake is a barely-touched Dethling Statuette, the BlizzCon 2010 Exclusive Limited Edition Authenticator, and the ever exclusive, well-sought after BlizzCon 2010 Loot Card. This package is well worth ~$220 USD.

BlizzCon 2010: Swag Bag Pictures

22 October 2010 | 4 Comments » | Amatera

BlizzCon swag is always a big deal, sometimes resold on the internet for more than the price of a ticket itselfi! TZKooPA managed to score his bag of junk early, and we’ve got some exclusive high-resolution pictures of its various contents. There’s a full gallery with close-ups of individual items after the jump, but here’s the selection in its entirety:

Not attending the event myself, I couldn’t tell you precisely what each item is, but most of it seems to speak for itself (such as the various coupons and notices). The marquee swag this year seems to be the exclusive 2010 Authenticator, a StarCraft II Trial Edition (though who at the con doesn’t own it already?), and the Dethling, which appears to be a Deathwing-themed statuette (pictures in the gallery). And, of course, who can forget the Murloc Marine Battle.net portrait and Deathy in-game pet? Continue Reading

Blizzcon Video Promo: Deathy Footage and More

26 August 2010 | 2 Comments » | Heartbourne

If you were curious as to how terrifying Deathy, the murloc mini-pet awarded to Blizzcon 2010 attendees and live ticket holders, look no further than the new trailer posted to the official WoW Youtube channel. The trailer also contains a couple of promises to live internet viewers, namely, the full dance and costume contests, which were cut short last year. It also lists 3 of the cameras available to live viewers:

  • Main stage
  • Development stage
  • Tournament stages
  • Presumably a “host stage” with exclusive interviews for live viewers, etc.

Head on over to the Blizzcon site to buy a virtual ticket if you aren’t attending the contest in person.
