    When I saw the name of this thread my instant reaction went along the lines of, 'Woh wha...?'

    I don't understand why this news come so late ? Even on my NWN box stands Atari and not Infogramms, and I own this game for three months, or so.

    Shouldn't this topic be in "Play ground" anyway, I'm too young to remember Atari games, I'm from the Snes generation, but I've heard good thing 'bout them.

    I agree. ( I got mine from july 2002 look's like I was more Fan(atic) of Bioware game!)

    Actually this is new information. Infogrames used to own Atari, not be called Atari, and would publish some games (including NWN) under the Atari label. Now there is no longer a company with the Infogrames name, and Atari is now a different company than it was.

    There's a few games that are under the Infogrames company name, but are resurrections of Atari games, like Combat, DigDug,....and I can't think of any others.

    :yot: This eliminates the '321' in my posts.....
