Plavski posted:As far as I'm aware EA own the rights to all games that use the Infinity Engine so until gog get a deal with EA, not Planescape, Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale will be available. Zombie Interplay still has the rights to those games as far as I know, but Atari picked up the D&D license shortly before Bioware's Neverwinter Nights was released. Interplay is desperate for any money they can get, and I feel pretty confident they would have released their D&D games if they could. I'm guessing a digital distribution of the games counts as a new product, and as such, they can only do it if Atari buys the old IE games, or they can come to some sort of copublishing arrangement. Ubisoft bought SSI in some form and I would guess they have the rights to the old D&D Gold Box games, but again, you can't buy them anywhere, even though I'm sure they'd sell well on GOG. Again, it would probably require an agreement with Atari to get them republished. Or Wizards could give their publishing rights to a different company, which would probably create similar problems with the D&D branded games produced under Atari.

Painkiller is an entire game composed of Enter obviously-going-to-close-behind-you door Door closes behind you Shoot shitloads of monsters Repeat Don't get me wrong, this is awesome in Painkiller (a game which you should buy if you haven't already), but it's... less than I'd expect from Doom. It's a good game, it's a lot of fun (barring a couple of kind of lovely levels near the beginning), but if that's all you want from The Real Doom 3, you wanted something that honestly would have been pretty disappointing next to Doom 1 and 2 (albeit closer in spirit to those games).

Drox posted:So you think Doom 3 should have been Bioshock but better? I agree with this. Doom should be an action game with horror elements. Doom 3 was a horror game with action elements. Again, I think Painkiller is an awesome game, I just think people sell it a little high.

doctorfrog posted:So, I bought Divine Divinity because it's been on my c-list for many a year. You won't forget how to play it (the controls are diablo-ish), and it has probably the best quest log ever made, so you shouldn't have any trouble forgetting what you're supposed to be doing either.

WMain00 posted:In the same way I don't understand why Monolith doesn't make another NOLF, I can't for the life of me understand why Relic doesn't make Homeworld 3. I assume that Fox owns NOLF, while Monolith now belongs to Warner Bros. Hopefully they're not doomed to making exclusively Batman/DC Comics games for the rest of their existence. THQ actually acquired the Homeworld property in 2007, so there's at least hope that we'll see a new one of those eventually.
