ShackNews has a piece summing up the latest batch of Diablo 3 talk as everyone waits for Blizzard to make their new game announcement this weeekend in Paris. Here's a sample of what's making the rounds:
Diablo fan website DiabloII.net reports that Blizzard's game announcement will be Diablo III, the long-awaited next title in Blizzard's hack-and-slash RPG series.

The site claims to have confirmation of the forthcoming announcement from "inside sources," but does not specify whether the information came from within the company or an external source.

Speculation flared this week over teaser images posted on the front page Blizzard's website, which many believed to contain possible connections to the anticipated hack-and-slash sequel.

Other evidence pointing towards a Diablo III announcement includes the Diablo3.com domain, now empty after previously directing to a Diablo community website. The domain was acquired by Blizzard last month.

Additionally, many speculate that the Worldwide Invitational's June 28 and 29 dates, which coincide with Diablo II's June 29, 2000 release date, lend further credence to rumors of a Diablo III announcement after the event.
More information.

Noticed at diablofans.com that there is a streaming page up at the WWI page.

That new rune (ice5) looks like Moorcock's chaos rune.

Here's the updated teaser page, with some slanty eyeballs that just may belong to the Lord of Terror, or Murder or whatever he was:

Whatever. It isn't really important what he/she/it is or was, als long as if he/she/it is a foe which drops lots of loot ...
