I was totally blown away by how completely representative of the game they're selling that ad is. Pretty though.

I think you need to get your eyes checked, that looked nothing like Deathwing.

LOL. i just had this vision of some of the guys from blizz sitting around going,
'you think anyone will notice the deathwing footage in the d3 ad?'
'nah man it's pretty much just fire, evil looking things and dramatic music... it's almost exactly the same.'
'so how come people pay for it?'
'cos starcraft and warcraft are getting a bit repetitive. Dont want to do what those idiots at activision are doing now do we?'
'guess not...'

Funny enough, this is a good example of why Bennett(Spelling) Ring was onto something with his GameSpy article about the D3 FPS. That advert (as firey and short as it was) didn't have a lick of Gameplay footage, and really, how could it? The game itself if you remove the brand is a pretty hard sell on anybody outside of the hobby, or even outside the genre.

Watching it really made that apparent to me.

One reason to order locally. In saying that, JB will likely take a while to get my copy to me.

I'm still waiting for a 16" Angry Bird plush doll I ordered from Amazon to get here. It was shipped on the 16th and was meant to be here for a friend's birthday. Even WOW HD took 5 days to get some games to me. Not happy Jan.

Well at least you can explain why your angry friend is getting an angry bird for B'day ....

I only ordered locally because of the cost of shipping. I didn't want/need anything from Amazon, so saving that $2 wasn't worth it. So I got it from MightyApe...
i5 2500K @ 4GHz. Gigabyte Z68X GA-UD4-B3. Corsair 1600 DDR3 16GB RAM. Crucial m4 256GB. MSI GTX 680 Lightning II. ASUS Xonar Essence ST.

Haven't heard the words "Coming on PC and Mac" without "Playstation 3 and Xbox 360" for quite some time now :D
