Too bad we're 11 hours away from an announcement and easily 2 years from playing an actual WORKING game. Fucking Blizzard.

I cant hold it any more. That fucking Eddie Murphy head is driving me insane. I think it is going to haunt my dreams for weeks to come.

Unicorns are cheap.
True awesomeness comes from pwning with the Valkyrie, Banshee, and especially the Shapeshifter.

Blizzard.cn is totally not owned by blizzard.
It says 'Fan site' right on it.

For those who will be up, Blizzard is offering live streams of the event. http://eu.blizzard.com/wwi08/streams.xmlYes Schild, this will cover the costume and dance contest as well. I know you're a sucker for cos-play.

Yep, 5:30 a.m. eastern I believe. EDIT: At least that's when the opening ceremony starts.

See it's almost a win win situation here gents. We either get Diablo 3, or we get to watch the Schild version of the Kill Bill red screens (complete with high pitched music.)

I wish I could set an alarm that went off depending on what they announced. Wake me up if Diablo/Lost Vikings is announced. Ignore if release date for Starcraft 2/ WOTLK is announced. Secrete chlorine gas if web page update/B.NET upgrade is announced.

Like someone else said, it will be at least 3 years before we see any fruit. I'll try to get hyped then.

The splash screen's been updated: the eyes are brighter, you can see a bit of the face, and the five symbols are glowing. I love diabloii.net:
"What happens in Diablo II when 5 seals spaced around a large circle are triggered and start to glow? Someone appears then... someone large and red... I can't quite remember who, though?"

Ok, the brow is looking really demonish to me. Definitely not Lich king helm (its way to organic looking for that in it's texture). It could be protoss, but they don't really have that sharp of brow lines.
And yes, that is a winking smiley. Probably making fun of everybody who tried to make sense of all the completely random and non sensical clues they scattered all over the place.

I have a semi legitimate excuse in that, for various reasons, the batch of beer we brewed tonight in our kitchen went late. So I only just finished boiling the wort at around midnight. It took the fucker about 2 and a half hours (IE, just now) to cool down to the point where I could pitch the yeast and seal the container, which required me to stay up this late. Now that I'm done with it, and its so close, may as well stay up a few more minutes to catch the final announcement.
