The blitz is about to begin. Gaming fans have descended on Anaheim for the fifth annual BlizzCon, a celebration of all things Blizzard Entertainment, including Warcraft, StarCraft, and Diablo. According to the show’s organizers, 30,000 attendees are expected at this year’s event.
Highlights for this year’s two-day event (October 22nd and 23rd) include a keynote by Blizzard president and co-founder Mike Morhaime, a StarCraft II competition, and a variety of panels discussing tools, tips, and some behind the scene views of Blizzard’s titles. Comedy music duo Tenacious D will close the event. They’re in good company–Ozzy played last year’s show.
And then there are the lines–“the most epic thing about BlizzCon,” according to Joystiq. Attendees reportedly began lining up at 2AM this morning, to beat the crowds.
