[Baron Dupek]

Oh no not this shit again

 

[LESS T_T]

Heh, yeah, that button glyphs below are definitely new things.

Re-release is coming.

 

[Baron Dupek]

From a massive PS2 library there are games that are more worthy to come back and get remastered touch.
This is not one o them.

 

[Black_Willow]

Oh yes, Black Isle's greatest classic - Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance.

 

[Abu Antar]

[Gangrelrumbler]

29.99 just for upscalled first game? What the hell?

 

[Zibniyat]

That trailer music is difficult to bear... Other than that it looks promising.

 

[Mud']

29$ for thar? What the fuck.

Does it even have online coop or some shit or why the game is so god damn expensive?

 

[Don Peste]

Fucking Herve, how does it work?

 

[Butter]

What the fuck

 

[Taka-Haradin puolipeikko]

Any change that they'll bring Fallout:BoS back too?

 

[4249]

Re-releasing this at the same time as WoTC is rebooting Dark Alliance with Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance. What in the fuck. Herve seeing opportunity to cash in on the name being up in the media again?

 

[Dodo1610]

I am only going to buy this because Beamdog isn't involved

WTF they want 30 $ for this?

 

[baud]

I am going to buy this just because Beamdog isn't involved

that you know of.

 

[Chippy]

In 20 years time when kids are raised on a diet of maggots, this will probably be released again to great success.

 

[Multi-headed Cow]

29.99 just for upscalled first game? What the hell?

That's what was confusing me too. $20 for both games cleaned up to run on modern machines sounds more reasonable, like the D&D arcade games. Same kinda deal for D&D beat-em-ups.

 

[Infinitron]

Have Interplay forgotten the password to their YouTube account or what?

But it's pretty cool that this game will finally be available on PC IMO. It's a piece of Baldur's Gate history that many people have never had a chance to check out.

 

[Sarkile]

Would've considered it if they bundled DA2 in with it for that price.

 

[Generic-Giant-Spider]

Champions of Norrath was better.

 

[Tuco Benedicto Pacifico]

I just learned randomly that this game was supposed to be really popular back then on PS2, and that most people loved it and reviewed very well too.
Which is hilarious because I always remembered it for being a dull, worthless piece of shit that was rightfully slayed on the old italian gaming magazines I used to read.

So now I feel like I'm witnessing a textbook case of Mandela effect where history is being rewritten in front of my own eyes.

 

[The Jester]

Wait a minute, Black Isle Studios is back?!?

Fallout 3 Soon!

 

[Sacibengala]

I played this for the first time a couple of years ago on a PS2. Horrible, horrible game. Both, 1 and 2. Champions of Norrath was better. At least it had 4 player coop. Not this one.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

who owns black isle's twitter account?

 

[Don Peste]

I wonder who is behind this port. Russians? WotC doesn't seem to care. I'd like to see the credits video. If this is profitable enough they might get to make more ports.
