I'm pessimistic by nature so I find this really weird and not all that convincing but if they could get even halfway to the awesome that was the old school Black Isle games, that would be something.
we see what this "reformed ancient" can do, maybe if they do well, they will be praised for trying to fill in ancestrial shoes (if you get what i ment).
I've always wondered and I'm finally gonna ask, what does it mean by "IP"?

I would like to see Planescape Torment on Steam, that would be nice.
Now reboot them as first-person shooters.

Only RPGs? Interplay made one of my favorite games of all time: [img]http://www.elisoftware.org/images/thumb/2/21/40421-36273.jpg/250px-40421-36273.jpg[/img]

Freespace is the Half Life series of space, it deserves another sequel.
Descent needs another sequel :saddowns:
Fuck descent. Bring on more D&D RPGs. But... This might become black Isle by name. But will it even become a shadow of what Black Isle was? Just look at the FB page. They sum up all the titles in a timeline and you realize, these people only made good games. How do you follow up from IWD, FO, PS:T and BG (with Bioware).
This is good. The market is full of bad products right now, we could do with a developer who used to know what it was doing.

The real Black Isle still exists its just called Obsidian now

A lot of titles went under the radar and never had much chance if they were poorly made to begin with.
I hate how the game press just blew up into some flashlights and "AWWW SHIERT!!!" phenomenon... "Buy this game because it's awesome", "Buy this game because it's epic!", "This game sucks because it tried to do something new."
