Teaser page Update #8: Day 6

A couple of minutes ago ice5andahalf.jpg was uploaded by Blizzard and its most likely the final image prior to the announcement at World Wide Invitational 2008 in Paris. There's a chance "6.jpg" might get published as well, though.

We've been updating you each day here at Curse and there's endless of ideas, speculations and discussions surrounding the entire thing. One thing which is quite clear is that it will be a new game. Blizzard (and other game companies for that matter) would never go to such great lengths with teasers, only to announce something expansion-related. Not to mention a Rob Pardo went out and said he can't share what new game it will be, until WWI! More information here.

The new image "ice5andahalf.jpg" is showing the eyes even more clearly, it really are starting to look like Diablo or Protoss. Most are rooting for Diablo 3, even I, so lets hope this is the game that Blizzard will announce. Alternatively, their next-gen MMO, I wouldn't mind that either.

    wow, the eyes throw EVERYTHING off, it's impossible to tell if it's Diablo Protos or arthas now.

    the face in the back looks alot like arthas but the runes look like diablo

    Guys, the runes, they are in the shape of a pentagram, lines connecting them makes what?

    You got it, the pentagram. It has to be diablo that can't just be a coincidence.

    Even the crack of the ice makes a star right there. :]

    I bet 6 is the ice breaking out to the runes making a big star pentagram or something.

    if you look at the rune that isnt glowing you see its a winkning smiley lol

    On world of warcraft.com I noticed the logo for BC has become half Wotlk now.

    Anyone else notice the little 'ice crown' in the lower back sky of the splash screen as of today?

    And the throne like column of ice in the fore ground?

    Due to caching problems (will be resolved with our new site) I cannot edit the news any further, I somehow managed to add an a before Rob Pardo. No idea how it got there ;)

    Note the smiley face rune, i do not approve of five and a half.
    Speculation has already begun that the horn like object in the right bottom of the broken ice is a horn (due to the curvature).

    Also here is a (supposed) pic of the WWI floor through a keyhole or small opening of some sort. Take note of the color of the BLIZZARD logo in the upper left corner. This could be from a past event, but i believe it worth mentioning.

    Also a Whois of diablo3.com from Godaddy web hosting shows that Blizzard Entertainment owns that website.

    What if the "horn" is actually a toot or claw coming through the ice?

    Perhaps if the curve of the object is a horn, maybe it is in fact a demonic claw beckoning us towards it >.>

    More support towards Diablo 3 perhaps?

    My only Starcraft 2 Idea, just to put it forth, while remotely possible, is that it has to do with the Zerg-Protoss hybrid mentioned in SC:BW, though this is remote because I believe blizzard announced that there are only 3 races in SC2.

    Which makes me personally go back to the idea of D3, the only game yet to be brought to the 3D gaming field completely.

    I will admit I never noticed the logo being half ice before hand, I was never this observant of websites prior to the splash. >.> I claim noob status on that.

    I wounder if the ;) is teasing us about the images?

  • Sat, Jun 28 2008 7:26 AM ()

    idk if its just me but under the runes some say ROB or OLA

  • Sat, Jun 28 2008 7:26 AM ()

    Whatever it is it looks like it has a helmet on...
    I like the winky face. ;D
