Blizzcon tickets are hard to get
In spite of their high price of $100, there were so many people trying to get a Blizzcon ticket that Blizzard's ticket website crashed, and won't be up again until start of the business day today. I must say I can understand people, my own WWI 2008 visit was a great experience, and well worth the hundred bucks plus travel expenses.
I'm just wondering what Blizzard could possibly announce at the Blizzcon. A new game? Or just the release date of Starcraft 2 and/or Wrath of the Lich King?

I don't think they'll announce anything new. D3 ad SC2 have already been announced. If they have a new MMO in development, I think they'll wait until after WotLK release to talk about it to avoid compromising WotLK's publicity.
Maybe they'll have some "exciting" news about the card/miniature games and other franchising crap... but who cares.

I'm putting all my money that Blizzard is going to give a release date for WotLK. Based on the current beta it doesn't seem like WotLK is far off. Perhaps they will also announce a date for Starcraft II, since that has been in the works forever now.
I'm honestly surprised at how long the store has been down. Last year's Blizzcon ticket sales went smoothly as far as I remember.
They will announce the starraft 2 expansion and starcraft 3. Given the long development times of these games, they've decided to get started early. :)
Preston is right on the money about the WOTLK release date. Given the timing of the beta (July 19? start), the fact that Blizzcon is just around the 3 month mark, and the marketing stupidity of placing Blizzon directly after the release of a major product, I would virtually guarantee that we will be seeing a release date announcement at Blizzon. It is unlikely that any official announcement will be made before.
