    I wonder if they are showing new units, or changes this BlizzCon. Or they might just show gameplay video like in WWI.

    I believe they will show the updated build at BlizzCon. Hopefully, we get to see the new updated art/models for all the units. I really want to see how good the new and updated Protoss/Zerg looks like since Blizzard stated they are gonna work on them at WWI. They did an incredible job on the Terrans so expect the same for the Protoss/Zerg.

    I would imagine that they are showing new things at Blizzcon this year. After all the reason Blizzcon exists is so blizzard can show off their games and do fun stuff with their community, and what could the starcraft community want more than new information (other than the actual game of course)

    probably showcase the zerg changes and zerg playability since only terran and toss were playable last blizzcon ... perhaps a blizzard dota clone? they mentioned adding heroes because of the custom games in warcraf t 3 so they can show these two things

    Please do not quote the poster directly above you.

    A playable Zerg demo would be pretty awesome. I went to Blizzcon last year so I can say from experiance that the game looks way better in person than it does in movies and screen shots, so I'm really itching to see what the Zerg actually look like.

    The Zerg have been playable since March. I've played with them quite a bit and I expect a new build as well at BlizzCon. Karune has indicated that a new build will be unveiled at BlizzCon as should be obvious.

    I also hope that Diablo 3 will have a playable demo.

    Not sure about a Diablo3 playable demo, if it's ready it's going to be the same one we saw on the announcement date. They seem to be in really early stage of D3 making. Yes they had a cool announcement demo, but I fear that it was all they had created (demo wise).

    Bout SC2, Pearce said that there will be more details about the Single Player Campaign on Blizzcon and like Jon said, a new build for Multiplayer. Most probably it'll contain the latest art update for some units. The units we were told to wait for ScreenCraft that never came out, most probably will be part of SC2 surprise at Blizzcon.

    If only they had live broadcast like in Paris :(

    Did anyone see 2008 WWI. Blizzard lost both times. To 2 pros that just learned how to play sc 2. I didn't know that March was when zerg was playable. I hope they tell us when sc2 is coming out. They haven't said anything about it (that I know of). I doubt Diablo 3 will have a demo. They aren't very far in it. They most likely will release one after its been release the game.

    I think they'll reveal new D3 classes, maybe some new enemies.

    Lich King is around the corner and they're pushing that pretty hard so I'd at least expect some new videos.

    As for SC2, they'll probably show some new heroes, possibly some story (no, hopefully!).

    One D3 class, two if we're lucky.

    More content in hopefully video form.

    And campaign stuff would be nice, so what Seyla said.

    I hadn't thought about them showing the D3 classes but you guys are probably right. I'm looking foward to that as I was a big D2 fan.

    Lol. Good job, Major Willy. About 3/4 of this should be on a d3 forum.
