I haven't posted here in a while, but I recently stumbled upon this article about an upcoming Game of Thrones RPG and was wondering how excited other people were to hear of it. It's not a truly original idea since it comes from the books, but it's a breath of fresh air in the gaming industry.

Also, the RTS looks like it could be fun, but the graphics look pretty crappy in those screenshots. Hopefully they release higher resolution photos later.

I love the books, I love the show, but I don't like the idea of this being turned into an RPG. I loved the LotR books, loved the LotR movies, and was psyched for the games, and all of them disappointed me. I guess I'm assuming it'll be the same for this.

They were recruiting for it over at maxforums.org a while ago. Not sure if it was for the game, or for VFX on the series however. Never seen the show yet, but keep hearing good things about it.

The show is awesome. But I'm not sure if I would like a game about it.

It was for previs for season 2 of the show. I think the responses are funny, though, as this is for previs, not actual work on the show.

Lord of the Rings - War in the North looks really, really cool. Too bad MW3, Skyrim, and Halo Anniversary all come out at the same time as it.
