Brain Boggling Bashup from Blizzard?

Postby Sajuuk » Fri Jun 27, 2008 2:16 pm

For those of you who don't read Digg (this story hasnt seem to have it /. or Google News yet), theres been some freaky stuff going on with Blizzard's site. For the past 5 days, its gotten a new splash screen each day.

Heres an animation of the screens for you

Image

The whole story (up to today) is at http://wowriot.gameriot.com/blogs/The-S ... in-the-sky

So, what's everyone think it is? It could still be anything from Wrath of the Lich King to Diablo III (about damn time) to Starcraft II.

Personally, I hope it IS Diablo III (In the words of that marine "Hell, its about time"), but I hope if it is its actually Diablo III and not World of Diablo or some shit like that.

knowing blizzard, it could also be a joke, or a teaser for something that'll never come out =P

or they did it intentionally knowing people would go nuts over it, good for publicity.

the animations crew must be bored...

It's Starcraft: Ghost.


Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pron surfed, weak and weary,
Over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore',
While I clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour,
"'Tis not possible!", I muttered, "Give me back my free hardcore!

Nah, that was postponed indefinitely ages ago, much to my annoyance.

That was kinda my point. But, hey, you never know, now that WoW's making them rich as hell.

Well guys, hell has finally unfrozen over it looks like. And Hell, it is about time. (bad joke)

No ETA on the release yet, but they are hiring for it so its gonna be a while. Also, doesn't look like its gonna be some crap like World of Diablo and actually will be like the old one (gameplay wise)
