BlizzCon 2010 Goodie Bag Leaked?
Thanks to the folks over at
Rawrcast
we have a leaked picture of what seems to be the major goodie in this years BlizzCon 2010 bag.
"Dethling"
is a maquette, read: scale model, based on the big bad ass - Deathwing. Much like last year's Jim Raynor n00bz figure you won't be able to purchase this item in the stores! Looks like BlizzCon attendees are in for a special treat after all!

Now, we aren't sure if this is real or not! Could very well be a very elaborate troll - why don't you decide for yourself?
I'm personally hoping it is the real deal!

BlizzCon 2010: Tenacious D Performing Closing Ceremony
It seems Blizzard still has an extra surprise for all those attending BlizzCon!
Tenacious D

BlizzCon Store Swag Online 48-Hour Pre-sale
Blizzard has announced they are going to have a
48-hour pre-sale
of all the items that will be available at BlizzCon this year! If you are a ticket holder you will be able to order your swag between 10am on October 9 and 9:59am on October 11 (Pacific Time).
But wait there's more!
Virtual Ticket holders will also be able to buy the exclusive loot this year

Not Going To BlizzCon? Get the Virtual Ticket or DTV Stream!
Every year getting BlizzCon tickets proves to be a phenominal pain in the butt for the majority of Blizzard fans - no matter how much they streamline the purchasing process (which, I'll admit, was significantly better this year) the truth is that most fans won't get tickets. Some people can't justify the expense for the tickets or the travel - after all, other than the "experience" of actually being at BlizzCon, you aren't missing out on much considering there's always more than enough coverage of the events and panels, and thousands of pictures and YouTube videos of every waking second of the convention!
If that isn't enough, though, you can enjoy
BlizzCon 2010
from the comfort of your own home without the experience of red-eye flights or sharing a hotel room with 6 people (what was I thinking?) by ordering one of the two
BlizzCon live feeds
available this year! You'll even get the BlizzCon 2010-exclusive "Deathy" World of Warcraft pet (

Didn't Get A Ticket to BlizzCon? Worry Not, There's Still Hope!
Skaarjonic from the WoW Official Magazine here!
Getting tickets to BlizzCon is tough. Having frantically attempted to get into the ticket queue in past years (with the assistance of six different browser windows), I understand the woes of putting everything you've got into getting your hands on a ticket to one of the most coveted gaming conventions in existence.
However, know that you've still got a chance to snag a pair of tickets! Those of us with the World of Warcraft Official Magazine are holding a contest with a grand prize of
two tickets to BlizzCon 2010
, and we'll even cover your
hotel stay and airfare
.
So how do you enter? Simple -- either
send us a short essay
(100 words or less) on why you want to go to BlizzCon, or
subscribe to the magazine!
That's it! For additional information, head on over to our website at
www.worldofwarcraftthemagazine.com
. (If you don't see the splash screen giving you all of the contest info, here's a direct
link to the contest rules in English
.)
Good luck, and I look forward to reading all of your essays!

Tentative BlizzCon 2010 Info Leaked
So the crew at

have done a bit of sleuthing, and have discovered that
BlizzCon
is (tentatively) scheduled at the Las Vegas Convention Center next year, for July 30th and 31st!
Check out the source
here

Edit:
Blizzard has sent us an official response to this story:
We haven’t announced any details regarding our next BlizzCon -- though we can confirm that it will not be held in Las Vegas -- so we recommend everyone refrain from making any BlizzCon-related travel plans at this time.
Looks like we won't be meeting in Vegas this year—a shame, I was rather looking forward to the trip.

Cataclysm Stat Revamps—GC Nerfs EVERYTHING!
So I'm going to go through and list some of the crazy changes that are being made to itemization here. I'll be elaborating more on this later, but here's the basic rundown:
Edit:
Because there seems to be some confusion: These changes are proposed changes to come with the next WoW expansion, called Cataclysm. These are still a long way off. When they come, they will also come with a complete revamp of existing gear, as well as a total reconstruction not just of the quests that lead you through the original zones, but of the zones THEMSELVES. Thousand Needles is being flooded. The Barrens is being split into two zones. Desolace is green and growing. Azshara is a lowbie leveling zone. Zones are being condensed so you spend fewer levels in each one. So have no fear. Everything is changing, but it's all changing TOGETHER. The whole game is getting redesigned for the new expansion—check out all the details on how in our
