well the tickets sold out in mere minutes!

they are setting up a live stream for the event though!

don't know why people would pay to watch the live stream though.

I'd pay to go there, but i wouldn't pay to not go there :/

pay to watch? im sure footage will appear on Youtube right after the event. Or footage will get leaked to another site. Guaranteed.

Sold out that fast? must be very popular!

it's insanely popular…

especially since you can get all the blizzcon goodies.

nearly every wow player would want the exclusive pet as well:

The live event is roughly 18 hours long.

it would take a while to get all of it on youtube 😛

it's a once a year (but chances are: once in a lifetime) event. 18 hours is nothin' 😛

i see what you mean about the once in a lifetime.

But 18 hours is quite a while.

this is from kotaku. they were interviewing ozzy ozbourne about his video game addiction. although, they didn't get much out of him!

During our post-BlizzCon interview with Ozzy Osbourne, the rock legend revealed that he had once been addicted to a video game. Help us figure out which game that was.

Ozzy is not exactly known for his clarity, so you'll have to forgive us if we cannot tell you exactly which game he was talking about being addicted to during Saturday night's interview. I'll go ahead and give you what he said, as best as I can make it out. Then you folks can help us fill in the blanks.

“The only one I ever played is that ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** (unintelligible) I got addicted to that instantly years ago was that ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** video game where the ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** guy jumps off the ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** cliff. Sort of this old (well, or whale?). I was playing all ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** night.”

You can see where we might be confused. So far we've come up with several good suggestions. Owen suggested Jungle Hunt. Luke thought it might be World Games, with the cliff diving. Some of the members of the press I talked to after the interview thought it might be Super Mario Bros., or maybe even Lemmings.

I would have asked for clarification, but he then launched into a story about Sharon playing Tetris.

“Tetris – my wife got addicted to it. I remember lying in bed and saying, “Shit. Are you playing that ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** game?” And she'd say, “No.” And then I'd hear “Bastard! ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** asshole!” And then the exploded one (exploding sound effect) in her ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** hands!”

That didn't help anything, did it? I sure hope her hands were okay.

So what are your thoughts? What cliff jumping video game was powerful enough to fell the prince of darkness? The ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE*** comments section is yours.

EDIT:

just realised the amount of swearing… here's the link:
