    GamersInfo have decided to ignore today's shiney graphics and next generation innovation and instead <a href="http://www.gamersinfo.net/index.php?art/id:1559">blow off the dust and revisit Arcanum</a>. And here's a snip:
    <br><blockquote>It has been a long time for me. I try and have faith good things will happen, really, I do. I want to think that the next newest and shiniest game coming out will really be a good game. It so rarely is. I can rant about MMO's being so focused on artwork and technical performance and then shoving all their customers in a empty, heartless world with little to do but grind grind grind. So here I am, reverting back to some old games; games with a heart. Back to a time when game developer's really designed their game, their world, and most importantly, they defined what RPG really means. With hope, I picked up some Arcanum CDs, remembering that it has been a long time, nearly six years now. If you have never played this classic RPG, and maybe feeling a little like me, give it a listen.

    <br>They just aren't made like this anymore. Every town and NPC has a life, there is a story around every corner, and your actions in the world, affect the world.</blockquote>
    <br>Has it really been six years?

    Nice article.


    Yep, 6 years. They should have really made it open source + open content; or at least open source already.

    A nice article, though I disagree with him about the music, which I like.
