More music from Interplay

Dreamer128 · 12-29-2003, 05:31 PM

Well, Interplay is finally starting to redeem itself in my eyes. Not that I can forgive them for letting the rights to the PC version of Baldurs Gate slip through fingers, but it is certainly a step in the right direction. Right now, they've finally made the intire soundtrack for Planescape Torment available. The best game soundtrack to date, IMHO. It can be downloaded from;

Wow! Too bad I already have half of them from KaZaA(They're pretty rare there).

DAMN RIGHT this is the best soundtrack to date

I wish they'd have a .zip file, which contains all of them. Oh well, I'll just make a new folder and download them all manually.

What do you mean with "lost the rights to Baldur's Gate"?

Dreamer128 · 12-30-2003, 09:39 AM

They have the rights to the console version of Baldurs Gate (Thus; Dark Alliance), but the rights to the PC versions are still with another firm. A bloody shame, as Baldurs Gate III was already being worked on.

Was to be noo new Baldurs Gate, the series had already ended with TOB Dreamer.

Dreamer128 · 12-30-2003, 10:29 AM

The Baalspawn Saga has ended with Tob, Dalamar. They were working on a new Baldurs Gate that was to take place in the Dales.

Stupid stupid! It would have sold well, I presume.

From the Interplay Forums;

BIS is not working on BG3 nor will they at any forseeable future date.

It was widely believed that the ill-fated project codenamed Jefferson was BG3. Lisencing issues with Atari (the lose of the rights to make BG titles for PC) forced the project to be placed on "indefinate" hold.

Various online retailers have had BG3 listed for pre-order with differing release dates. This is in error, and IPLY has confirmed it as such.

The story was not a continuation of the Bhallspawn saga. It was an original story, belived to be set in the Dalelands of the Forgotten Realms, sharing the Baldurs Gate name in title only, not plot or story elements.

IPLY/BIS still retain the rights to BG titles on console and IWD on PC. At this time, there are no plans for a third IWD game. Nor are there any plans for games set in any of the other DnD Campaign worlds as WotC only officially supports Greyhawk and the Forgotten Realms.

Please keep all posts regarding BG3 confined to this thread. All other BG3 threads will be locked and removed.

Thank you.

The game was said to be only 9 months from completion

It's about damn time they come around with that. I ripped the songs (PST) using some tools from the net but the quality isn't very good. Now, these MP3s are just great! 192Kbps... yummmy

It's a damn shame that they had to abort making BG3. I don't know if the storyline would be as good as its predecessors, but it was at least worth the try.
