BioWare builds Qube into Dragon Age pipeline

Agreed. I remember a preview of DA in GFW and then nothing.

As for Baldur's Gate, I don't think BioWare could ever get close to it simply because that classic was made with Black Isle producing but now, not only there is no Black Isle to work with BioWare, some of team's important members have left.
I believe the excellent Mass Effect was the closest they could get to their classic Baldur's Gate 2.

I think you're right, but I can still hope that it will be an as amazing game as the Baldurs Gate series were!

Just thinking about that game makes me want to go play it again, BG2 is one of the finest examples of video games ever created, I might have to go track down the compilation somewhere.

I actually read that Black Isle was working on BG3 before they were shut down, I would love to see what they and Bioware could accomplish if they were still around today with a next gen Baldur's Gate

Agreed. We can only hope and even thinking about those classics is more than exciting.

Wow, Black Isle was working on BG3!!???? Dammit. If Interplay wasn't effed up and Black Isle wasn't shot down, they would have made the BG3 and finished their own Fallout 3 years ago and the course and destiny of RPG could have been completely different.

Now the only think I'm hoping for is that BioWare and Microsoft's friendship affects Dragon Age and they port it to 360. Mass Effect was beyond classic on 360, sold well enough and was rather successful IMO so hopefully BioWare could be persuaded to make a 360 version of DA as well. I hear they are going to use ME's superb dialogue system and branching storyline methods for DA and combine them with classic PC-RPG elements and level up system.
Can't wait.

the NPD November sales data, which proves that PC gaming is dead. All the big PC titles like UT3 and Crysis *FLOPPED* in October and November.

Well, I really do hope that they do think of console versions because of all those reasons since I really REALLY want to play The Witcher and Dragon Age on consoles.

I know they said it's PC only but if they don't bring it to 360, I'll be force to spend lots of money to upgrade my PC because there is no way I'm gonna miss a BioWare game. Neverwinter Nights is the only BioWare game that I didn't like. The rest of their works are classics, even their action game MDK2.
