Blizzard EntertainmentHey Blizzard fans: part of my earlier interview with Rob Pardo, Blizzard vice president of game design, was recorded by Register videographer Greg Magnus.

Keep in mind, Blizzard wouldn’t let us film the actual demonstration Rob was showing us (a new dungeon, six new bosses, lots of great new stuff…) so game footage doesn’t quite match up to dialog. But still, watch the video for what’s coming up in the World of Warcraft , as Rob talks about Zul’aman, a new 10-man dungeon that took about six months to develop. It’s about half the size of Karazhan, the only other 10-man dungeon in the game.

So six new bosses in the dungeon aren’t on the video. Some highlights: Slay Nalorakk, the bearish beastmaster and get a bear mount. There’s also Jan’alai, a trollish dragon hawk; Aki’zon the eagle boss and Halazzi, the lynx avatar. The faster your guild runs through the maze, the more loot you get in the end.

Meanwhile, Blizzard is waiting for the sold-out BlizzCon to release more details on Star Craft 2, here’s Rob’s wrap up on the sequel for the original, which he worked on nearly a decade ago:
