Yeah seriously since incontroll hyped the shit out of his announcement everyone announces announcements. From korean starcraft teams to IGN.....

Where are the good old days where people just came out and announced what they wanted to announce without teasing you all the time.( Well whatever its still great to see big names getting involved in the scene.

I have to admit, I'm a little tired of the announcement of an announcement as well. I can understand the desire to hype something, but when does it stop?

I really feel like this is bordering on the edge of negative publicity, personally.

Hey all,

Thanks for all of your comments about our upcoming announcement. We did not do this to just lead people on and be a tease - we only did this because of the amount of people who came to IGN this past weekend. News and pictures regarding this was going to get out sooner or later so we just wanted to let you know from an official source that something very cool is coming down the pipe.

Thanks!

Probably promotion for the HD World Tournament since it's sponsored by IGN.

Would make sense to use IGN's popularity in the gaming scene to promote their tournament.

Would not surprise me if they used the opportunity to conduct some interviews and create a sort of "special report" article, while the guys were there.

An announcement of an announcement? Of course Incontrol was there!

Hopefully, this'll be something cool, though. Go IGN!

Lol apparently it's a IGN sponsored Pro-League wow... and that clock is set to go off midnight on April 5th? Which would make it a day late lol.
