Post The Bard's Tale
Sounds promising, packed with humor, also on PS2 (jeej for me), check for info: http://www.the-bards-tale.com/uk/ (not that much info, but you get an idea) and http://pc.ign.com/articles/512/512557p1.html

You remember it because you're old :D

It sounds a bit hack'n slashy, but i think the humor will make up for it.

hint: check out the girl's breasts a couple of times on the first link

ALSO on ps2, besides on PC it will come out on ps2 and Xbox as well i believe.

And since i still don't have a decent computer, i'd be happy to be able to buy a decent game and actually play it, yes even if it is on PS2.

Hehe, w00t. I was hoping that there was someone else who remembered the original. :) I Played a while after it came out, obviously, but still, great fun. Good introduction to CRPG too hehe ;)


I'll be keeping an eye out for this, tnx for the tip J. Let's see if it's half as good as the original. :)

*Threaddigging, yeehaaaaa*

Appearantly this game was supposed to be released by Acclaim, but since they got kinda bankrupt or something, it took a while before they found another partner, Vivendi. These bastards released this game in oktober on the american market, but they were affraid of doing so on the european market as well (GRR).
Finally they found Ubisoft prepared to give it an european release, end of March probably. Still on PC, XBOX and PS2 (jeej me).

Screens: http://www.inxile-entertainment.com/screens.html

Anyway, no American here that seen it already? As mentioned earlier it's mainly Hack'n Slash, but than funny and without a lot of cliches. I hope.

Just read a review at gamespot which wasn't very reassuring. It has it's good points, but there seem a lot of downsides as well. And the length of the game is only 16 playing hours or so .. not much considering the low replay-rate and no MP.
