These games use AD&D rules though. |
| Karsus the Mad09-05-05, 11:56 AM | Pools of Radiance for PC. |
| WVgamer09-05-05, 12:10 PM | Also, there is a MMO for D&D coming out soon. Let's hope it doesn't go the way of Asheron's Call 2, since it's being released by the company that released that. And if I'm not mistaken, there is a RTS set in Ebberon coming out soon. |

And if I'm not mistaken, there is a RTS set in Ebberon coming out soon. Both games are set in Ebberron. Apparently Ebberron is now the flagship for Computer Games instead of the Realms. Which was a proven market. |
| BrianCritchley09-05-05, 08:55 PM | Both games are set in Ebberron. Apparently Ebberron is now the flagship for Computer Games instead of the Realms. Which was a proven market. gee 2 games vs a zillion? nah, WOTC is just trying to pimp ebberon a little to make sure it maintains a solid play base. I'm guessing you haven't heard the rumors of NWN 2 and BG 3 |
| WVgamer09-05-05, 09:01 PM | from what I understand, NWN 2 is confirmed, at least from the site where the devs are asking for advice from fans. And surprisingly, it's not set in the North or the Sword Coast And also I heard D&D:O was set in Greyhawk, but I must have heard wrong. |
| warlockco09-05-05, 09:07 PM | I'm guessing you haven't heard the rumors of NWN 2 and BG 3 I'll believe it when they actually see the light of day. Considering they have been pushed back/delayed for quite a while now. |
| Dielzen09-06-05, 01:02 AM | Don't forget the OLD TSR computer games for the PC.... Pool of Radiance Curse of the Azure Bonds Secret of the Silver Blades Menzoberanzan -- stand alone game? Eye of the Beholder (not sure if this series was FR-specific) Eye of the Beholder 2 |
| BrianCritchley09-06-05, 01:17 AM | I'll believe it when they actually see the light of day. Considering they have been pushed back/delayed for quite a while now. anyway, FR has no shortage of games, it's absurd to ***** when another setting gets an occasional game as well. hell it suprises me we've not seeen a dragon lance game |
| warlockco09-06-05, 01:47 AM | anyway, FR has no shortage of games, it's absurd to ***** when another setting gets an occasional game as well. hell it suprises me we've not seeen a dragon lance game Last time I saw a Dragonlance game was with the old Gold Box games. There were 2 or 3 of them. Damn I miss those old gold box games. They were Classic. And followed the rules exactly too. |
| Dynneroth09-06-05, 01:23 PM | As for the Gold Box series, Hillsfar Pool of Radiance Curse of the Azure Bonds Secret of the Silver Blades Pools of Darkness Gateway to the Savage Frontier Treasures of the Savage Frontier And then came more SSI: Eye of the Beholder Eye of the Beholder II: The Legend of Darkmoon Eye of the Beholder III: Assault on Myth Dranor Menzoberranzan After that we come into the modern era of CRPG with Baldur's Gate, etc. Non-FR: Al-Qadim: The Genie's Curse Champions of Krynn Death Knights of Krynn Dark Queen of Krynn Dark Sun: Shattered Lands Dark Sun: Wake of the Ravager Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession Ravenloft II: Stoneprophet Dungeon Hack Did I leave any off the list? *Edited for clarity* |
| Andyr09-06-05, 03:12 PM | - Baldur's Gate (1998) & add on: Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast (1999) - Planescape: Torment (1999) - Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn (2000) & add on: Throne of Bhaal BG1 and BG2 in particular still have a lot of strong support from players and many mods are being made for it; see my sig for details. Ps:T has probably my favourite story. :) |
| Clarissa80409-11-05, 09:59 AM | I found an older copy of Pool of Radiance that we must have bought a few years ago, and never played....I tried to install it on my computer with WinXP, I got a message that the soundcard is not compatible . On the box it states for Win95, Win98, directX 6.o required. I did a search for "Temple of Elemental Evil", and found several very bad reviews from customers. guess I keep looking.... THank you all for your input. xo Clarissa804 |
