Anyone going to Blizzcon?

I'm looking for a good place to stay for around 50-80 bucks for the one night that I'll be down there. Unless someone's willing to let me sleep on a couch and shower.

Can anyone recommend a good hotel/motel close to the Anaheim convention Center?

800 W Katella Ave
Anaheim, CA 92802

Thanks!

Tickets go on sale Aug 11th. So you have 4 days until they're sold. It's on Oct 10th and 11th.

Tix are 100 bucks.

100 bucks damn that's pricey for a gaming convention thing (that's what it is right?)

It's comiccon for blizzard products (Starcraft, Diablo, Warcraft franchise).

Diablo III hands on,

Starcraft II hands on,

World of Warcraft new expansion hands on,

they have costume contests and dance contests and crap, which I won't take part of, but it's like going to a camaro event (picture the live unveiling if the reporters could see all the accessories from GM after the short unveiling. Or being one of the 15 disciples...)

I've never been to a con and I play WoW alot so it's a reason to go. Plus I have several plans for the SoCal area that hopefully I can get some of those done at the same time.

ahh i see makes more since now sounds like it could be fun but i've never really played those games for a long period of time (mostly because playing that sort of game on my computer means i have to use a mouse and that's kinda annoying when your not used to it)

I live in that un-talked about and certianly un-visited other world.

The *hushed voice*...east coast....*DUMM-DUMM-DUMMM!!!1!!!oneone!

It's amazing how nothing ever happens out here. Can't say that I'd necessarily go to Blizzcon but the thought is nice. Can't wait to here your feedback on WotLK though. My lovely resto druid is going to be redunkulous if the initial views of the talent tree tell anything.

And to a large degree, PLEASE do me a favor and find out about what classes are going to be in Diablo 3 besides the Witch Doctor and Barbarian (both of which look sick, but I want more!)

Trust me, I will find out everything about Diablo, Starcraft and Warcraft I can. If you have a list of questions you want answers to, write them down and send it to me. I'll take a list and write answers down to bring back.
