Planescape Torment

I thought about it long and hard. Ever since I found this site, something has been missing, and now I know what. Amongest the amount of games featured here, there is nothing on Plane Scape Torment! Why is that? It is a great game, plus it uses the infinity engine (I believe so anyway) and it's from the makers of BG2 (A Canadian company I might add) So, Buck, please consider the development of a Ps:T portion of the site. It might boost the hits it gets, and I'm sure plenty of people here would like to see one.

That's a lot of weight there Mr Sleep!

My vote in favour too.

@Aegis - are you implying that you reside in Canada?

I might be from Canada, eh! Or, are you calling me a hoser? Heh...

I think that everyone would agree that PS:T would make a great addition to this site. The game was however released before Buck ever started with this site.

Currently we are swamped with work on the various sections of the site that we have running.

If any of you are interested in doing a walkthrough on PS:T, then I am sure that we will post (Buck decides on this in the end).

I could find a few sites to get you guys some info on the game. Walkthrough info of course. And I'm currently playing through myself. I'll try to send info whenever I can http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/smile.gif

I know that there are other sites, which have walkthroughs. It is however our policy to only publish material that has been either created by the GameBanshee staff or by our loving fans.

We would really appreciate anything that you sent us on Planescape. I will talk with Buck to see whether we can open a Planescape section.

Well, to be honest, I have covered Planescape: Torment in the past. I absolutely loved the game, and when I used to do work for GameZNet, I built their Planescapers site at http://www.gameznet.com/torment/

That was a long time ago, back when Planescape initially came out. I then went on to working on EQ'Lizer for them (when I was ridiculously addicted to EQ), and then started GameBanshee about 6 months ago.

So, unless BioWare pursues a sequel or expansion for Planescape, I unfortunately will not be covering it on GameBanshee. All of the work I did for GameZNet is copyrighted, so I'd have to do it all over again... which is something I'd rather not do =).

I reviewed the game for PC Games, I think--or was it PC Gamer? It's been a while. In any case, I thought it was far superior to BG1. Problem was, it didn't generate a broad base of users, at least enough to demand (as I see it) an ongoing board presence. I rather wish Black Isle Studios would do a followup, but knowing that Interplay looks to the bottomline, I doubt that will be the case.

Since posting my reply back in February, many people have emailed me requesting a PS:T area. I've reconsidered and have decided to build an area for the game, so expect to see it sometime soon =).

Nice, Buck. I hope you get posters for it--I'll certainly contribute my two cents. http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/smile.gif
