    Of course it only needs modeling. There's loads of pets in the game. It's not like any code needs to be rewritten to fit in some more. It's just yet another model and a couple soundfiles being added.

    well, the model needs to be animated too, but that too is not the intergame stuff department.

    Those are true, but not on the scale I was considering Blizzard at. I got carried away with the wow stuff :D I originally meant to say that if you, as Blizzard (1 entity) have a certain amount of money/time/capacity in parrallel with finishing an anticipated-as-hell sequel, and you want to make the special edition really attractive, you are not going to invest money/time/capacity in a feature that does not relate to the anticipated sequel at all.

    Having said that, especially considering that recent horse pet craze, it's probably just another pet only it's sold in a completely different way (and in a completely different price range, though seeing as how wow is subscription based and still has a huge userbase, it wouldn't be a problem for the more fanatic players, and even those 'few' would generate a huge income). Looking at it like that, it's actually the SC2 content that comes as a bonus to the pet :wacko:

    I would have gotten the special edition regardless of the pet anyways.

    The Clockwork Rocket Bot, the 2007 WoW Christmas present pet, is the best in game companion pet ever made for WoW.

    6 of my alliance characters have it.
