also the 3rd rune is from starcraft so just looks like they are advertising so im guessing no Diablo 3, got to love blizzard and their wow milking ways.
ppl think they can see a skull shadow from the steam.
If you look at the General World of Warcraft forum, TONS of people are discussing that it’s most likely Diablo 3.

I was thinking that til the 3rd rune, first looks like frostmourns rune second is hel run from d2 and 3rd is protoss logo so the only way can find out now is waiting til tomorrow. : /
I think a lot of ppl are going to angry if its not Diablo 3 and Blizzard are just advertisting.
Hmm. What would they be advertising though? Didn’t they claim that the WWI tickets were sold out?

Diablo 3 will be announced regardless.
There is no reason to dig up an old game-series just to piss off fans by telling that it’s not going to happen.
That image is clearly hinting that the Blizzcon will be about WotLK, StarCraft 2 and Diablo 3.

WarCraft 4 won’t come until Sargeras is killed in WoW ( two more expansion packs after WotLK maybe - that would make it around.. 2012-14 or so )
It has to be Diablo 3 , logically speaking that is.
what the hell would the story line be after they killed sargeras? who else would be left…

Bingo, nobody important at least.
WarCraft’s storyline is aiming at ending the burning legion once and for all.
This is why, after he’s dead, something new gets made up that gets it’s place in lore, just like anything else.
Blizzard will easily go ahead with doing this, as most of the lore has already been raped in World of WarCraft anyway.

[/code]And from what you guys are saying and no I haven’t played Diablo but don’t forget that the new Death Knight race uses these “runes” you guys speak of.
It’s probably Lich King.
If it’s for WOTLK, why would they put a splash on almost every blizzard website?
they did the same when they announced Starcraft 2 by puting a splash screen on every blizzard site

There is nothing to release on Wrath of the Lich King, it’s already in alpha and testing for 72-74 content.

Almost everyone is convinced now that it’s Diablo 3. X-Play even reported on it, so that’s all I need.
