LOL! thank you truth.. at least some people realize that humor still does exist in forums these days.
Honestly I wouldnt mind checking it out myself.. I have heard so much good about these classics
Only DnD games I have played on the computer were Pools of Radiance, and Curse of the Azure Bonds.. The originals.. Back on my Commadore 64.. LOL and believe it or not I remember them being alot of fun!
How is a game better than 99% of the rest of the video game garbage produced today a 'dissapointment'? DA2 was no DA1, but readjust your friggin expectations. They called ME3 whiners 'entitled brats', but man they have nothing on the DA2 hate bandwagoners.
Oh it's Atari? Great.. I'd rather them /RickRoll me..
Better than EA.
Well i would prefere atari than having another da2 dissapointment.
On the other hand it may be another dissapointment from atari
Lets keep hopes up
Will be a 50/50 if Atari or EA will be publishing this BG. Atari has the D&D licence as well as the old (bankrupted) Interplay, while EA is BioWare's 'mother' now and BG is a trademark of BioWare. If I have to take a pick, I'd say EA because I have more faith in BioWare when it comes to RPG's than Atari...

Actually, Baldurs Gate is a trademark of Wizards of the Coast. WotC also recently took Atari to task for the mishandling of the D&D franchise and revoked the exclusivity from the liscense. So, there is a chance that any number of developers could be handling a new game.
No, it's just an overhaul of the original more than likely, not Baldur's Gate 3.
If you took a look at the page source (before the server started burning), you could see the following comment "Shadowy Figure- Raise Dead : Infinity Engine". Infinity Engine is the engine behind Baldur's Gate 1 & 2, Planescape and a few other games.

oh, and...less than a minute now
*rereads the back of the BG booklet*
Damn, you're right. Trademark by TSR (now WotC). How could I forget about that *looks over the shoulder at 2 bookcases of AD&D books*

omg!!!!! its BD3!!!!
I would prefer to see Obsidian develop the third installment if there ever is one. Or at least do an epic remake.

thats a lot of 0's and nothings happening
and, the BG site goes boom
f5 spam YOU BROKE IT, server is burning
Just Hit zero and it's frozen wtf?
And this was the birth of the BG virus which brought the world to its knees!
Rofl, autoinflicted DDOS ftw! XD
Ya, it's busted. Too many fans want to see what's up.
I want a mmorpg where people have gone through misery, have gone through school stuff and actually have had sex even. -sagil
I have to make the assumption that it's BG3 from the way the webpage is acting... "You must gather your party before venturing forth"
Haha, this reminds when I was working for Blizzard and we received a mail from the systems department:
-The Starcraft II internal beta is available now for download here (link)
3 minutes later the whole network at Blizzard's offices goes down.
OooOps my party is dead can i venture alone?!!!
Yeah and the site www.baldursgate.com is down.....HARD!!!!
<sad kitten face>
.....if the "anouncement" actually worked after the clock struck zero I might be impressed.
Does that mean that EA/BW is the developer then?
lol

Also, the music playing in the background is comig from http://www.beamdog.com/files/overhaul. Overhaul Games (http://www.overhaulgames.com/) is owned by Beamdog and they have recently, well, overhauled MDK2.
*laughs* A dark plan by the Lord of Murder for those that hit refresh more than 20 times...

LOL can still be atari if you ever saw how they mangled the ghostbusters game.
Either way this is a sad and pathetic start to whatever the announcement is.
