Blizzard has released two new tv spots in the same vein as earlier spots with Mr. T and William Shatner. The new spots feature Ozzy Osbourne and Steve van Zandt of The Sopranos. Ozzy Osbourne's been the Prince of Darkness since 1979 -- too bad Arthas is poised to steal the throne. In a series of nationally televised ads, Ozzy and Steve van Zandt want to know: "What's your #!@? Game?" Watch the Ozzy Spot, and the Steve Van Zandt Spot.
