Blizzard Pushes Out Battle.net Desktop App Beta
We recently got a hold of Blizzard Entertainment’s Battle.net Desktop App Beta. The app is set to replace the “launcher” which came separately with each Blizzard title. The desktop app will keep each Blizzard title up-to-date, allow you to add game-time, and will also offer a place to catch up on the latest Blizzard news. The app has a nice clean look and will be much better then having separate software for each game.
In order to be eligible for beta software from Blizzard, you must opt-in through your battle.net account.

StarCraft Universe an Incredibly Awesome Mod
StarCraft Universe is now available to play! SC Universe has come along way and it’s looking pretty awesome. This Mod originally got a lot of attention from Blizzard due to it’s initial name, “World of StarCraft”. The name upset the folks over at Blizzard quite a bit. Ryan Winzell, who created the Mod, was originally thought to have created the Mod using methods other than the tool set offered by Blizzard Entertainment, and Blizz was looking to throw down the iron hammer on the project. Eventually, things were straightened out and it was found that the Mod was legit. Finally, it was allowed to exist but with a name change.
It looks like a ton of effort went into this project and I can’t wait to see it grow into something even better. It’s not often that you fool a large gaming company into thinking you’ve made your own full fledged version of their game.
You can get all of the mod details including screenshots and videos at their official mod site.
