Or so www.battle.net says.

The picture on the first page is random between:
Warcraft: Night elf, Orc ,Undead
Starcraft (i don't know , i never played it)
And one Diablo picture. (which seems to be the rareist)
And one more rumor spreading one, the Undead one with the text "0.999_=1".

The source code on this page also says "get ready"

Speculation on the battle.net forums goes wild and one thread has got my attention.

Starcraft 2 possibly? hopefully somthing among those lines...

EDIT: once blizzard made an april fools joke stating with maths 0.999=1, arpil fools day was also the release day of starcraft. (or this could be something tiny small and crap, anyway www.starcraft2.com)

Well Im thinking along the lines of double announcement, there are 3 Warcraft type pictures, maybe a new warcraft game or a look into the WOW expansion, there are two Starcraft pics it seems one is the terran off the front cover of the starcraft manual and the other looks like a nice and friendly hydralisk/zergling eye, so we could get an anouncement on Starcraft 2 or Ghost, I have yet to see this diablo pic yet, but they might have thrown it in to confuse everyone or are announcing a new diablo game.

They all have some strange orb/circle thing over the eye which could suggest a continuation of something, oh well we find out tommorrow it seems.

Thats the diablo pic, incredibly rare to see aparently, also 3 different warcraft pics, 2 starcraft, 1 diablo.

3 2 1 then (as it says in the source) get ready!

It's probably not Starcraft 2. Don't get me wrong, I'd love it to be Starcraft 2 however:

A ) The Banner is on Battle.net, not Blizzard
B ) The Banner incorperates all three Blizzard games.
C ) That little orb would seem to indicate something to do with Battle.net

But anyway, please let me be wrong and SC2 is coming! W00T

There were rumours about SC2 a long time ago, they turned out to be nothing in particular, I would love to see Starcraft back again, it was one of the few games that didnt just offer different graphics for the same unit over and over again for the different sides.

go to battle.net NOW

it apears to have a parrort saying NO WAI!! made out of 1s and 0s.
I have a screenshot.

EDIT: people say it has changed throughout the time from, O RLY?, to YA RLY, to NO WAI!!! It changes every 5 mins or so.. aparently

EDIT: damn, just a new site design.. it rocks though :p

EDIT3: I must remind myslef to stop editing.. anyway scroll over the projector at the bottom of the page and it says "Help me Jim Raynor....You're my only hope!" still starcraft in there :)
