No Blizzcon for 2012


Blizzard has announced that, due to the multiple projects it is working on (Titan, WoW Expansion, Diablo 3, Starcraft II: Heart of the Swarm), it will not be holding its annual Blizzcon convention this year in Anaheim. This marks the first year since 2006 that they have not held the convention.

I'm glad Blizzard is one of those developers that knows when it has plenty on its plate. Them putting aside a somewhat meaningless convention in order to finish the two (three?) games that everyone is waiting for is very smart of them.

Hopefully that means we will actually see Diablo 3's release this year, although it gets less likely by the day with the lead developer leaving and the purported changes they plan to make to the game.
