    Very good news. I did like BG2 over Icewind Dale though...

    BUT, the news i was waiting for is actually for Planescape Torment. So far, what i found was an entry in a wikipedia page found here (search for Legacy):

    A Planescape port would be amazing. I hope it happens, since the other ports seen to be doing well. Someone on the Kotaku thread mentioned NWN would be a possibility too.

    This. Loved that game from the beginning. Except I fear it would lose alot of its character with the lower specs.

    It doesn't look like it's coming out today :(

    I read it had to be resubmitted to Apple, didn't pass.. Hopefully it won't take 5 tries like the original Baldur's gate! Keeping fingers crossed :eek:

    That's typical for Beamdog, every other port goes smooth, except for IOS release. Well .. Baldurs Gate II is still not on Android..

    IIRC, Icewind Dale EE was already submitted to Apple for review so it won't be long now

    Yes, but got rejected, they resubmitted it on the 29th so it should be another 8 days or so. And that's fine, still working on BG2.

    Rejected again :rolleyes:

    They say they are re-submitting again today, for the third time now. I was being sarcastic when I said it would take 5 tries like Baldur's gate, this is just.. sad really.

    Come on Beamdog, you must gather your shit before venturing forth...

    The reason for Apple's last rejection was 'objectionable content' in the Heart of Winter expansion intro video. Google the video and you'll see the probable cause: 1990's CGI old tribal lady boobs.

    The 'naughtiest' bits are covered by convenient strands of hair. It's questionably objectionable, almost certainly _not_ sexualised content and even if some folk think it is, its not done gratuitously (IMO).

    this means it'll either need the age rating raised or the video cropped.

    Either way, the resubmission on Monday + the current 7 day leadtime on approvals means it's likely to be a few more days until release. Argh. Not that it'll stop me from checking the AppStore several times a day in hope...

    Do you have a source on this? I'd love to run a front page story.
