[E309]Storpi Snacks 05/31/09

You probably saw the PSP Go news yesterday. Judging from the coverage I saw yesterday, it looks like that was the only thing that happened Saturday.

Today though, Activision Blizzard, who will not be having an E3 press briefing, as they have left the ESA, is having an investors conference call. Let’s see what they’ve got going on!

Follow Gamespot’s live coverage here. If not, I’ll summarize when it’s over. Mostly they’ve just talked about how each of their big franchises is going to make a lot of money: Modern Warfare 2, Guitar Hero 5, Tony Hawk Ride, etc.

• Battle.net 2.0 will Launch Alongside Starcraft II, Beta This Summer
• Mike Morhaime says "we will soon be launching Starcraft II."
  This is the thing I’ve been waiting to hear from the conference call. I wish he’d been a little more specific, but I guess this is okay for now.
• Microsoft XBOX Press Briefing Moved Up 5 Minutes
  According to Geoff Keighley’s Twitter, Microsoft moved up their conference to make room for a last minute addition. Crazy, end of press conference surprise nab? Sounds likely.
