Rumours already have been floating around for a while, that Blizzard will not only show us the new World of WarCraft add-on and StarCraft II with all three races playable at the World Wide Invitational 2008, but also something very special.
Just on Monday this week, Blizzard changed their frontpage on www.blizzard.com, and put a splash screen online and now XLBet.com put odds up where you can bet what will happen in Paris this weekend! A press conference with not title is set up on Saturday, 13 CET at the WWI!
Here we post all splash screens that have been published so far as well as some rumors that other pages found.

The first splash screen
WorldofWar.net claims to have solved the splash screen, the image contains artwork from Arthas' runeblade - so it cannot be Diablo 3?
Second splash screen from Tuesday

This pic from SK shows the Hel Rune from Diablo II. A hint for Diablo III?

Today's screen from Wednesday includes a new rune - Protoss related!

WoWinsider.com sees Diablo behind the ice!

The ice is breaking and eyes appear on Thursday!

Gameriot.com sees: Diablo eyes, Arthas eyes and Zealot eyes
It seems possible that Blizzard will announce Diablo III during the WWI 2008 in Paris this weekend - or are the colours and other hints of the splash screen StarCraft II related and Blizzard will announce the release date for the RTS game or the beta? Or will we see something World of WarCraft related? But who says it cannot be WarCraft 4 or StarCraft Ghost?
XLBet.com put a special bet up where you can actually make money out of betting on the rumors. Here are the odds:
What new game will Blizzard announce at the WWI 08? (SC II and WoW WOTLK excluded)

| Diablo III | 1,42 |

As SC2 is excluded from betting, due to the fact it isnt a new announcement, it will be a bet on no new game for you. Giving back your money 2,60 times!

Definately Diablo 3.

hmm, i wonder, those simbols are spread out from eachother... come to think of it, does anybody resemble the mission in Diablo2 where you had to go to tristan to save Cain?
you had to activate 5 stones in the right order to create the portal. so my guess would be that the other 2 symbols coming in the next 2 days will be at the top and at the bottom right corner, so you can draw the hell sign, or whatever it is. ohh yeah, there is a little 8 right beside the 3rd rune, could mean infinity or something else.

You guys are all wrong! Just look at the image: everyday more and more ice is being chipped away. On the final day, it will all be gone and we will see ... The Lost Vikings! Erik, Baelog and Olaf, we still love you!
You heard it here first. | |||||||||||||

What the... a lot of votes for WC4. No way can it be WC4 because it's too early for it.
