Post Blizzard Entertainment Splash Page Teaser

Blizzard Entertainment's official website has been replaced with a teaser image suggesting that the company may be making a new game announcement soon. Considering that the 2008 Blizzard Entertainment Worldwide Invitational kicks off this coming weekend, I think it's fair to assume we'll be seeing some kind of announcement before the end of the week.

So, what do you think? Diablo III?

Well, the splash page is just a bunch of ice. It likely has to do with the new Lich King expansion for WoW. Diablo 3 is likely to be announced soon, though.

Based on this analysis, I'm starting to think it might be a Diablo sequel yet.
Quote:
forsinain points out a pattern on the master.CSS file for today. Yesterday the name was Tundra. Today the name is Cavern. His pattern points toward one of the Diablo Acts' locations:
Glacial Trail -> Frozen Tundra (.tundra in CSS)
Glacial Trail -> Drifter Cavern (.cavern in CSS)

The speculation was true: D (04.jpg - fourth letter of the alphabet) and today's image O (15.jpg - 15th letter) of the alphabet). At this rate the image numbers will reveal DIABLO. Tomorrow's image might be named any of this file names ... 01.jpg (standing for the first letter of the alphabet: A), 02.jpg (standing for B), 12 (standing for the twelve letter of the alphabet: L) or 09.jpg (standing for the nineth letter of the alphabet: I).
Unless, of course, we're striving to find a pattern where none actually exists.

Well, those guys get overly excited quick, and see a Diablo III announcement in anything.

But yeah, the writing is on the wall for Diablo III. I wouldn't be surprised if it is, they can't dilly-dally on announcing it forever.
