A crazy gust is growing bigger and bigger within the gaming communities. Now some people claim the Blizzard splash has been solved, but surprisingly other details have popped up; making this battle go fifty fifty.Today, SK Gaming posted a rumour news that the game Blizzard will be announcing at the World Wide Invitational 2008 event might be Diablo 3. Now, however, several hypotheses have popped up on the Internet regarding the splash Blizzard made public. According to WorldofWar site, the case has been solved.
The site tells out that you can clearly see rune-like marks on the image, which seem to be similar to those on Prince Arthas' sword. Blizzard is also giving beta keys for the WWI visitors of their new game. Logically thinking this might be Starcraft II's beta or WoW: Wrath of the Lich King's beta.
However, some other details plead for Diablo 3.
Blizzard has also included some hidden code in splash site's .CSS file, which is giving us an extra image named for tundra. Some people think its related to a place called Frozen Tundra in Diablo game. But then again it can be anything. There is several other hints available, which are leaning for Diablo 3.
Everything is out of the control, but luckily it is only five days remaining for this huge announcement.

Later next year, on the same day June 29th, Diablo II: Lord of Destruction expansion pack was shipped in Europe. PC Gamer has also a hot issue coming up around June 30th, which will feature a "top-secret cover story so huge we had to go to [CENSORED] to get it."

After wc4 the entire world would be different and changed so that blizz would have a lot of new ideas and things for wow.
sure they could and will come up with some new encounters from time to time, but the story ends with arthas, there isnt anything left and due the fact that wow is a constantly stagnating world, the changes do have to come from the outside.
this time its hel rune ;)))))
