Win a Blizzcon Ticket, See Starcraft 2/Diablo 3

Next news
2:31 PM - July 22, 2009 by Kevin Parrish

Win a ticket to next month's Blizzcon event thanks to Kingston.

Feeling a little frisky for a bit of live-action Blizzard Entertainment? Are you wanting to attend Blizzcon this year but just don't have the bucks? You're in luck, as memory manufacturer Kingston Technology wants you to attend the event on its dime.

Taking place August 21-22, Blizzcon will offer two big days of everything related to the Warcraft, Starcraft, and Diablo franchises. In addition, Kingston will be there on-hand, showcasing its latest products in the HyperX memory lines as well as giving away other cool prizes (Hall C).

To win a Blizzcon ticket (worth $125 USD), simply head here and fill out the form. We can't exactly guarantee a ticket if you answer "Kingston" when asked about the brand of memory you use, however the chance to win a Blizzcon ticket is still worth the time used to complete the questionnaire.

Keep in mind that the contest winners (ten tickets will be given away) is responsible for all transportation to and from the event. Additionally, there will be no cash value substitutes. One entry will be accepted per person.

I signed up... and got an out of office email from a Dara Sun at Kingston... kind of funny.

"I will be out of the office starting 07/21/2009 and will not return until 07/23/2009.

Hello,
Phone calls and emails will be returned when I am back in the office.

Thank you!
Dara"

Anyone else go to events like this to hit on chicks? I mean... even if she's not gorgeous, if she's at comiccon or blizzcon or something.... pretty much good enough for me.
"Hey, baby, I see you're dressed like an Elf... and I think that's hot. Want to get some coffee sometime?"

"What influences you to buy memory?" Price , Quality.

"What memory are you currently using?" Corsair Dominators Micron D9 chips


I wonder what they will think when they see that. Maybe I'll get bitch slapped.

I'm with Lifelesspoet. No Lan, no game..

Hopefully there's a bit of an uproar at Blizzcon about it (and they actually listen to their player base)

If I lived/worked within 5 miles I MIGHT go. Considering it's 2000 miles and likely $2000 away, I'll pass.

They're just video games!

wongster :
^^ THANK YOU



hehe. i'll play it... i just won't buy it.

I hate online gaming, and I HATE playng with f**ng stangers. I play over LAN with my friends.

I have a extensive collection of bought, sealed video games. I buy the games and download them of the net so i can keep the packages sealed. Don't need the serial numbers because i don't play online. Never cared for it. (Except for Dark Athena witch took forever to crack, and i opened the game :( ). This time, i'll go directly to step 2.
