Blizzard Conditions

While our meeting with Blizzard Chief Operating Officer Paul Sams today at the German Games Convention mainly focused on The Burning Crusade, the upcoming expansion for World of Warcraft, we did ask him about what the future holds in store for Blizzard, and specifically about StarCraft 2.

"StarCraft is my absolutely favorite game of all time," Sams told us. "As you probably already know, there is no doubt that we will continue the StarCraft and Diablo franchise, and trust me, I will be the happiest person in the world when we announce StarCraft 2."

While Sams wasn't ready to spill the beans just yet, he did say Blizzard "will have a major product announcement in 2007," and that Blizzard was currently working on at least three other unannounced titles at the moment.
Badgers!

Sighbertron

So, I'm cruising around the 'net and swing over to Seibertron, a Transformers website, where they've put up on their main page a damnation of the new movie's Megatron design, rebutting it with how Megatron is supposed to be.

It was amusing, and I get their point, but then I realised something.

Showing fifty bajillion DIFFERENT versions of Megatron as the "true" Megatron, as a rebuttal against ONE Megatron is...silly.

If there's so many completely different versions, what's one more? You can't say it's not Megatron, because there's one true version...and then not say there's one true version.

That said, I'm a bit iffy on the movie designs, but this attempt kinda fails.

Because we're okay with nudity.

Well, mostly.

Some folks are getting their knickers in a twist about it, and trying to squash freedom, but that's pretty normal these days.
