I noticed that I still have Wasteland on my laptop. Acquired by totally legal means, of course. I think I should give it another (and real, I barely played it before) try. But damn, I hate luck-based character creations. I very much prefer point-allocation, like in Fallout. I certainly wouldn't mind if they changed that in Wasteland 2.

Where's Wasteland available? And if I buy it does the money go to Fargo or EA?

Buying it right now the money won't go to either one of them...because I think all of them would be secon handed now...

I was talking more about Digital Distribution. I can't seem to find it on Go G. I'm guessing there's no other chance to find this game outside of torrents? Cause I doubt I'll find a physical copy anywhere.

I wish it were on GOG.

Not that I would need that, as I mentioned, because I got it through totally legal means, not through downloading it on an abandonware site or something.

Since Fargo has re-acquired the rights to Wasteland, he may include the original as an extra with the sequel.

That would be cool. Alternatively, put it up on GOG. I'd be on that like a shot, even though I have my own totally not downloaded from Abandonia copy of Wasteland. Which I really ought to get back to; haven't done much since I killed that mutant summer camp.

$1,488,736 now raised. 12 k more or so and you benighted heathens who use Mac OSX and Linux (evil grin) get a version for your platforms. So, dig into your wallets.

[up] Would that even be feasible, in terms of user interface? I mean, yes, it's going to be updated, but there are limits.

Final Fantasy Tactics was on PS 2, and its gameplay was kind of similar to what I imagine this games will be (tactical turn-based, and isometric.)

Which is bullshit. There have been TONS of turn-based RP Gs and strategy games on console, from the NES version of Ultima to Civilization Revolution.

As much as I'd love an XBLA release, I agree with Brian that they should probably focus on the product they're advertising, at least at first. And there were never console ports of Fallout 1 or 2.

He's not saying it's impossible, he's just saying it's more work that would distract from delivering to their core audience Old nostalgic bastards

Good, I'm glad. This is a PC game, it should remain on PC. Go play Mass Effect if you want a console RPG.

I don't see what would be bad about them porting it to Xbox and PS 3 at a later point.

iirc the NES versions of Ultima have been atrocious ports.

On the other hand, Final Fantasy Tactics is a great game (Coming from someone who hates Final Fantasy)

And I mean, if they can't put it on Xbox or PS 3, they can put it on DS/3DS.
