- They're using the "Lost" numbers, which clearly points to "Lost Vikings"
- The splash screens are full of ice and runes...vikings lived in icy places, and used runes
- The project's codename is reportedly "hydra". In past Blizzard games, hydras have had three heads, while The Lost Vikings was a game about controlling three characters simultaneously
- The hidden image depicts a purple penguin, which is clearly related to vikings somehow
this is a great community, i think i will stick around for a while...
not.

Haven't seen it mentioned yet in a thread but is the "3" is very obvious in this picture...
Does anyone have a picture of the WWI07 promotional art? There was something similar to this for that year and I'm curious where they placed the characters for each IP on that one.

Argue not with Dragons, for thou art crunchy and go well with ketchup.
Okay I'm just posting to reply to some new posters who asked questions/posted stuff and they didn't get a response or they are still clueless....
-YES the diablo picture fits pretty well in the ice but so does Arthas like I said before it could still be any franchise at this point. (THE ICE IS ICE)
-A Blizzard employ stated that there would be a GAME announcement, may I mention WotLK has already been announced (that seems to escape many of you, plus WotLK is an expansion not a game)
-They have stated that this will be exciting and they think everyone will be excited, so I think this cuts out the Lost Vikings and Pax Imperia or whatever the hell its called.
-Azeroth in the Starcraft system was indeed part of the April Fool's joke, Char was announced days later but we all know about Char,(if you play SC that is) they just decided to update with new information about it and such.

My goodness, and my fortress, my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and He in whom I trust…
You still forgot that there are two Evil lords remaining, Belial and Asmodan.
While people focused on Belial, I'm surprised none brought Asmodan , yet.
In the Dictionnaire Infernal
In the Dictionnaire Infernal by Collin de Plancy, Asmodai is depicted with the breast of a man, cock legs, serpent tail, three heads (one of a man spitting fire, one of a sheep, and one of a bull), riding a lion with dragon wings and neck, all of these animals being associated with either lascivity, lust or revenge.
Asmodai appears as the king 'Asmoday' in the Ars Goetia, where he is said to have a seal in gold and is listed as number thirty-two according to respective rank.[4]
He "is strong, powerful and appears with three heads; the first is like a bull, the second like a man, and the third like a ram; the tail of a serpent, and from his mouth issue flames of fire."[4] Also, he sits upon an infernal dragon, holds a lance with a banner and, amongst the Legions of Amaymon, Asmoday governs seventy two legions of inferior spirits.[4]
In Dungeons & Dragons, Asmodeus is the Lord of the Ninth, the ruler of Nessus, the ninth layer of Baator (Hell) and the most powerful of the archdevils.
Named Sydonai, he is the final boss in the computer game Hellgate: London. He looks similar to Cthulhu. ( this could be a huge clue IMO since they are from the team that created diablo )
In "Voices in the Dark", the first installment of Babylon 5: The Lost Tales, a man named Simon Burke was possessed by a demon who claimed to be Asmodeus, acting as a part of God's strategy to bring mankind back to the Church.
He is the principal antagonist (though this is not revealed until the last pages) of the novel Asmodejev šal (Asmodej's shawl) by the prominent Croatian author Ivan Aralica.
in the PS2 game Shadow Hearts: Covenant, Asmodai, here called Asmodeus, appears as one of the main enemies as well as a crest that gives the user magic abilities. in this incarnation, he appears as a pale mass of bloated flesh in the shape of a butterfly, with six arms and an old mans' head on the end of a long fat neck.
In the real time strategy game Starcraft, there is a popular Use Map Settings game by the name of Heaven's Last Defense/Stand, where Asmodeus is a playable character portrayed as a Terran Goliath.
In the anime and light novel series Shakugan no Shana, Sidonay is the name of the Bal Masque member. He is shown to be able to change his form into that of a large sea monster and a flighted creature, as well as change his limbs into different forms. He is extremely protective of Hecate, referring to her as 'my Hecate'.
In Equinox (film), Asmodeus is the controller of different demons and spirits.
In the Australian movie 'Gabriel', he is one demon fighting against archangels sent to Earth.
It's a shame new users actually aren't aware they can't post links their first post. When you guys register do you not read all the rules before posting?
The fact that it was a boss in Hellgate London clearly rules that OUT if you ask me. Blizzard would not make a move that stupid, expecially when they set the trend. Not some half ass attempt at a FPS/DIablo rip-off with over the hill old diablo programmers.
If Diablo's storyline is to continue it will revolve primarily around Tyrael and... diablo. Focus on that instead of off the wall ideas, but its a good find.

My first thought was the 2 "eyes" and the ice theme, looked somewhat like the lich king, but it doesnt make sense, why making hype about a game you already announced?
Meh...
eyes too spread out to be arthas.. imo its either something protoss, or something from diablo lore
I think that everyone new should have to read all the outher WWI Teaser - DAY Threads before they can post here.
How do you suggest we make them do that?
Seriously though, if people did read much of the content already posted, the lot of their concerns and questions would already be answered. Thus preventing the flooding of these threads.

Given the focus on them in the recent books, whose author swears he is not writing for a dead game, I would expect D3 to have large involvement with Lilith and Inarius.

LOL I love how the old forum guys completely stopped posting here
Yeah i havent posted, or even read since yesterday morning because every god damned post is. "HI I KNOw I HAVEnT POTSED HERE OR READ A SINGLE POST ON ANY OF THE THREE MILLION THREADS ABOUT THIS BUT I THINK I FOUND SOMETHING OUT. THE FIRST RUNE IS FROSTMOURNE AND ITS WOTLK HAS ANYONE ELSE SEEN THIS OMG??????"
Any new topic with any interesting subject is quickly drowned out and made undiscusable by the hordes of assclown new posters who cant research shit for themselves who want to be the first to point out that the picture has ice in it and they are obviously the first to notice.

Hello I didn't bother reading the last 40 pages but I read the 2 lasts threads (teaser day 2 & teaser day 3). May be worth nothing but if you accentuate the red in ice4.jpg you can clearly see some kind of "flames" coming out the hole.

and for the admins I visit some forums that make you wait a week before you can post, this restriction would help GREATLY in a situation like this.

Yeah I agree as well, deffinatly something that could be considered major boss's. But what I always refer back to is the Sin wars 3 book and Tyraels quote, it just kinda echoe's to me where the storyline is going. ANd its epic..

Clearly it's a new Lost Vikings game.
- They're using the "Lost" numbers, which clearly points to "Lost Vikings"
- The splash screens are full of ice and runes...vikings lived in icy places, and used runes
- The project's codename is reportedly "hydra". In past Blizzard games, hydras have had three heads, while The Lost Vikings was a game about controlling three characters simultaneously
