@Kam You better tell us if Warcraft IV is on the way!

That's some wishful thanking.
You may have more success waiting for Half Life 3.

Often times I browse Blizzard's job applications only to remind myself of the fact that I'll never get to work there.

This one is for gameplay and also specifically states Warcraft III^^
The requirement “A minimum of 5 years’ game programming experience, including experience shipping at least one title” is a killer though; I'd never get that sort of background in Portugal.

Opportunities are somewhat close to you. You'd just have to visit your neighbours.

What surprises me is that Miniclip, of all things, has such a large presence in your country.

Where are the Ubisofts and EAs of the world?
