It's Starcraft 3. Without a doubt.

They haven't released SC2 yet. SC3 would be a... Fairly stupid idea.

What if SC2 is a failure for whatever reasons? I highly doubt it will be, but it is still a possibility.

I think daxtreme was being sarcastic.

Also, I bet sc2 would be popular even if it was a bad game, just becuase its a sequal to starcraft and its a RTS (By blizzard!) thats newer then wc3. That is, if it made it to release, I suppose it could be stopped before it was released even.

Well I guess they have a huge base of fans waiting for the game. Whatever may be the outcome, they will like it.

As for the others, AKA anybody who isn't a Starcraft-devoted fan, well... only time will tell us if it's worth it. Though for now, I like the videos.
So, I guess it will be at least decent world-wide, in terms of $. Probabilities are for an hit game though.

Read this earlier, very interesting, even though he spelling arctic wrong, it doesn't make a different, just need different future numbers.

Using the image numbers as sperate digits, and applying them to their corresponding css class names to get the letters, using 0 as the first letter in each word you can get 2 letters per day.

Tundra - 04: T, R
Glacier - 15: L, E
Icy - 23: Y, I
Cold - 16: O, L

Knowing that there will be 4 more letters, you can create TYR_EL I_ LO__

With the The Valenzetti Equation from Lost being 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42 which so far fits the numbers we have, the final result can probably be guessed to be

TYRAEL IS LOST

So then, 08 will be Artic, giving us, A from 0, and T from 8. Leaving us with 42 something like _ _ S _ S??

Sometimes a picture is just a picture.

I know I shall wait patiently.


Laughing at some of the theories comes as a bonus.

Now, i'm all for Diablo III.

But realistically,

even if the annoucment is Diablo III, be prepared for hardcore dissapointment.

The DI & II developmentteam left Blizzard a while back.

A number of the former employees are working for Flagship Studios.

Yes, lovely FSS who brought you the massively over-hyped Hellgate : London.

Since these masters of 2d-dungeon-crawling-madness left Blizzard,

Blizzard has been producing nothing but crap. (I don't understand WoW at all.)

The bottom line is this :

Based on your posting of Blizzard's "open" positions,

your looking at a game, which you hope to be magnificent,

that is going to be produced by a team of new developers that have never worked together before.

OR

The people who brought you WoW with rape the Diablo series just as they did Warcraft.

It's a catch twenty-two, a lose a lose.

Just go by as copy of Titans Quest and wish the online wasn't hacked.

It's the closet we'll ever get to the great Diablo III.

and 42.jpg named evilpenguin




Yea, no doubt. "Harbringer" pretty much confirms it.

Lastly, rune. Ideas?

Spoiler

So everything's done now. Guess official word tomorrow?

 

[Turnip]

The fan art is called Evil Penguin.

And it is confirmed, all the numbers are the LOST numbers.

That bottom left rune looks like StarCraft 2 Protoss seal.
Maybe they are going to create somekind of hybrid game?

>Maybe they are going to create somekind of hybrid game?
Uh, no.

They really know how to attract people.
I so hope it is D3 since HG:L was kindof a flop...
