Yeah, philip, I was over there yesterday and read that piece of information. I, too, hope it wasn't an April Fools joke.

Mostly likely they refer to BGA2 as BG3, which is just the kind of crap I expect from a major publisher these days.

That could be it really well
But NWN2 isn't known to being created. And HotU is out for some time so they can't refer to that. Though if they 'lie' about real names of games I doubt the rest will be true. |

Apparently, they still claim the list is correct. Besides, we have comfirmation that several of these titles (such as Driver 3 and Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 are being worked on). Does anyone know if Neverwinter Nights sold as well as they hoped?

On the NWVault someone mentioned that Atari might be working on NWN with another developer. I believe Bioware more when they say they don't work on it than Atari who says they do work. So either Atari's lieing or they'r e working with another developer which is bad as well

I think it would make a cool RPG.

If NWN2 and/or BG3 isn't made by BioWare, I would be very skeptical about blindly lending it my full support.
On the other hand Bioware has more or less stated they veiw their secret upcoming game based on thier own intellectual propety to be a "spiritual successor" to NWN. This sounds promising as is cuts out the third party license holders (Atari, WOTC) from nixing creative design decisions for thier own reasons. I do think Atari's best choice would to be to tap BioWare for future incarnations of NWN and BG simply because they have an excellent track record doing these types of games and have the built-in name recognition to support such titles as well. Of course Im just 'little ole me' with very little say beyond ramblings on a message forum.
