Erick,

It's probably a long shot, but I am curious - with your background in video games - have you talked to Kevin Siembieda about the possibility of producing a console RPG based on AtB.

Oh and if you ever do get do to a project like this, please don't confine it to one platform like it seems will happen with the RIFTS game.

Making it a RPG video game would also be a bonus (wink, wink).

*Sigh* That's pretty sad, but sure does explain the sorry state of video games these days.

I guess were all lucky that the guys behind the Rifts video game are actually gamers who love Rifts.

Kind of curious how one would go about producing a N&SS game, since N&SS is a generic game engine without a centralized setting or background unless it was combined with a setting like Century Station. Though it would be cool if you allowed players to customized their own ninja/spy to go against the big evil organization.

Well, I guess I'll just have to see what the next decade has in store for Palladium and the gaming world at large.
