Blizzard's "major announcement" is but mere weeks away

[--Pete]

Hi,

It works especially well for them if they actually link the authentication between them, so a bundled account is only allowed to play one or the other at any given time.

I think that would be a deal breaker. Doing it that way, it isn't a bundled account, it is a single account. People who have multiple machines and multiple players in one household would be the biggest target audience (face it, *one* MMO is a full time occupation). If only one person can play at a time, then it isn't worth the few bucks saved. You'd do better paying for 6 months at a time on each account and get your savings that way.

As to what Blizzard is going to announce -- I'm almost willing to bet that all guesses are wrong;) And, of course, history has taught us that a Blizzard announcement does not assure that a product will ever emerge.
