Not a lot of people have the opportunity to attend the big, happy events hosted by mega developer, Blizzard Entertainment. The multi-franchise giant throws some of the biggest parties in the world. The Goblins were fortunate enough to attend last years World Wide Invitational in Seoul Korea and it was 3 days of eye-candy the entire time, and included the announcement that Starcraft II was in development.
This year, the event is in Paris and it looks like lots and lots of people are having the same experience WanderingGoblin had in Korea. The net is full of info regarding this year’s announcement, which was that Diablo III is being developed.? There’s tons of screenshots of in-game play and even some video. All of this is really cool….but, some people want to see what happens at these huge events, so the Goblins are here to share with you the fun that Blizzard has for those that attend!? These guys seriously know how to party like an ubergeek.
Our pals over at WowInsider have a really full gallery of event photos as well as details of what’s going on behind the scenes and more up-to-the-minute coverage, so hit the jump to check that out. Also, if you’ve never seen what it’s like to be a member of the press, Mark “Turpster” Turpin gives an inside source look at the life of a media person, thanks Mark! You can also, see some more pics of Blizz happenings over at MTV.com and you won’t be disappointed. The big Blizz themselves have done us, the poor souls who couldn’t make it to Paris, a great service and provided a live feed of the event. This is why we love Blizz….because they love us so much. About the live feed…you’ll need to download Octoshape to view it, but it’s easy and really worthwhile.

Event coverage is never boring, I mean, where else are able to get pics of people hopping onto a life-size turtle mount and don the helm of the Lich King?
Like everyone else, we’re really exited about the big announcement: Diablo III looks to be an awesome game.? Of course, that’s not all that’s happening at the WWI, so some up-to-the-minute event coverage makes those that can’t be there, happy as clams….so here we bring you your clams….enjoy!? We’ll continue to bring you the latest news regarding WoW, WotLK, SCII, and lots more details about Diablo III.

Als to some future up-and-comings:
We aren’t at WWI in Paris, but the Goblins will be at the San Diego Comic-Con and the Penny Arcade Expo giving you the sites and sounds that you want. If there’s any special requests, be sure to make them known before the big events in the coming months. Until then, FOR THE HORDE!
