    BTW, is it just me that still fondly remembers the grinning face from Silver Blades?

    To be fair, it’s not just the games though.. the books played their parts as well. Pool of Radiance and Pools of Darkness in particular (read them both if you haven’t done so.. read them again if you already have!) sucked me into the Realms bigtime, and I’ve never left. Thanks SSI and TSR for that! 🙂

    That being said, I really hope SDS gives me that same feeling I got all those years ago. I so miss that “itch” from not playing for an entire schoolday.

    3 was the only game in the Phantasie-series i played on my old Amiga, but it was so good at the time. Not GoldBox-good of course, but close. 😉

    Ahh.. the goldbox games. I remember reading a review of Pool of Radiance in Commodore User and thinking THAT’S THE GAME FOR ME!

    It was. Oh man, how it was! But it wasn’t easy getting the game since I was (am) living in Sweden. At least once a week since reading the review I went to the local games store and asked for it. It took months and months before i could lay my hands on a copy for my old trusty c64.
    After playing Pool on my 64 and then Champions of Krynn (and all the rest) on my Amiga i was left wanting for more.. and have been ever since. Sure, there’ve been a few other gems in the years since, MOM in particular, but nothing’s ever come close to the feeling of playing the latest Gold Box game.

    I salute you for doing this and from the bottom of my heart: THANK YOU for bringing back hope to this CRPG-junkie. 🙂
