Many of you may have read our review on Talisman, the board game reissued by Black Industries and available soon.
We were very pleased with the game and the work that Black Industries put into it. In the review I mentioned that Capcom had been tapped to create a PC game version of the board game. Now we’ve got some more details for you! It looks like the game will allow up to 4 players in both online play or turn based. It will also be available for Xbox and Playstation. 
Here’s what we know so far:
Based on Games Workshop’s classic board game, Talisman is the quintessential fantasy hybrid board/role-playing game for up to four players, either online or offline. The game takes place in a fantasy realm and is based very closely on the board game through a 3D representation of the map with animated movements and in-game events. Characters are fully animated as they walk about the board, attack other creatures, cast beautiful effect-laden spells and use objects to enhance their actions. Talisman will be rolling its way onto Xbox LIVE® Arcade, PLAYSTATION®Network and PC this winter. The highly anticipated 4th Edition of the board game is due for release from Games Workshop’s Black Industries imprint in October 2007.
Key features
• Electronic board game with 3D characters and environments
• 1 – 4 players offline and online multiplayer
• Dynamic camera angles adjust to each active player
• Up to 25 characters from the Talisman franchise
• Unique features for each character including strength and magical abilities
• Voice chat options
• Downloadable game expansions including character updates, adventure card updates and alternate endings
That last bit is what really interests me. Could we see some of the original Talisman expansions coming to us through the video game? Time will tell!

The following time I learn a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my option to read, however I really thought youd have one thing fascinating to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you can repair in case you werent too busy looking for attention.
