[PCGAME] The Temple of Elemental Evil

[Olgar Shiverstone]

The game appears to be nearing release ... on the Atari ToEE boards, the developers have mentioned they are submitting gold candidates.

Also, in the October issue of PC Gamer (the one with Doom3/Half-Life2 on the cover) there's a preview, a poster map with a walkthrough of the Moathouse dungeon, and a DVD-ROM that contains a 10-minute preview of the game, narrated by the developers.

I got the mag for the cool stuff, but didn't realize it was a DVD-ROM instead of a CD. I don't have a DVD-ROM drive, so I haven't been able to view the preview. The poster is pretty neat, though, and clearly indicates that there will be lots of ways to play this game.

You guys may want to hunt down the current (Sept. 2003) issue of Computer Games magazine. Very nice cover story on ToEE, along with a short interview with Gary Gygax, a review of the new NWN expansion and a preview of the upcoming one as well.

Updated impressions at Gamespot, short though.

Was just thinking about the game, so I will give this a little bump.

Then again, maybe not.
