| Playable Pandaren and the notion that China "blocked" their inclusion was brought up at one of the Blizzcon panels. Chris Metzen definitely made it sound like the rumors of it's being China's fault are true. He seemed to be irritated by the Chinese block and I got the impression that he wants to get them included at some point but he never came right out and said it. He gave some corporate BS line about keeping the large Chinese consumer base happy, etc etc though he didn't seem to actually agree with any of it.
Also, Chris Metzen looks like Ringo Starr.
