Very cool!

How do they make it run? Through DOSBox? Or is it recent enough that you can make it run natively in later Windows versions?

Well seem that DOS box is include in the Download (like in master of orion 2). Though for Torment specifically I can't say since I wait for my paycheck before buying.

There was a little crowd doing a lovely Neverwinter Nights 2, Torment inspired three part campaign. Can't remember their name for the life of me.

Oo if you find it, tell me, I'm probably the one on this board who spent the most time on NWN.

Ehh... there were selling Planescape in a computer magazine in my town a year ago.

It literally Vanished. I didn't have the chance to buy a copy. I just managed to buy Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale.

It doesn't surprise me, some years ago I was searching it and was ready to pay 70 bock (which is an awful lot for an old game) and never find it. Finally NWN2 come out and I was distract from it. But now, as soon as I have an extra I will buy it. I'm just amazed that whoever own the licence didn't tap into the potentially nearly free money that a "reprint" could give them sooner.

That game just seem that good!

Planescape torment is again gifted with a PC game Magazine in Greece.
It's in the store 100 yards from me. Tomorrow, it will be in my house. :)

I bought in almost the same prize as the download, for 10 Euros, without the artwork but with a DVD full of other stuff that I won't even check. :)
I hope they have some good mods for Planescape. Or a guide for the ton of subquests.

There's a mod to make the game screen expand to fit modern screen resolutions, so you're not confined to a little 800x600 window.

haven't checked them yet, but they're supposed to be good mods. Fixing bugs and finishing & introducing some unfinished quests that were left out.

I have exactly the same problem... + some graphic problems of nVidia, so I have to run the graphics from the software = worse performance.
