Well, I'm not even trying to be an journalist, I'm just telling the community about it...

Me too, but I already have an iPad...

me too!
I want lba on I pad.
Let them figure out the controls :P

GOG.com, please. I think that would have a nice audience. Well anyway I have no doubt they'll make the right decision. Hope It's soon.

Id probably buy it a few times of GOG

[MatheusMK3]

If they make LBA for JavaME that will be great... For me.
I would have more things to do during interval instead of sit and wait for 20 minutes...

Even better, just do it all in Javascript, and use HTML5 offline storage for saving.
ie. Make it work like gmail did offline - browser based, play anywhere etc.

I think most machines should be able to do LBA1/2 pretty perfectly in Javascript now.
Porting would be hard though and you would need your own renderer built from scratch. (WebGL not being supported well at the moment).

Wouldn't it be hell in all different browsers with different javascript engines?

I kinda disliked javascript as a webdeveloper

[Darkflame]

Dont think so anymore, Javascript is pretty consistant these days in all but speed.
Theres sometimes browser-specific features youd just have to avoid, of course.

I think layout engines and canvas are what cause's most pains these days.

That said, I admit I use GWT myself to avoid having to deal with differences myself.

Hows this run for you;

Works smoothly in Opera and Chrome for me.

The last comment in the picture is : "Anyone has an idea where the rumor came from ?"

Me too, but it takes lots of work to port an game into WebGL, for example...
Even if they did, some people would be "locked out" of the game...

[Darkflame]

Sure, WebGL support isnt good enough yet.
I was thinking pretty much raw emulation.
Both LBA1 and 2 built there 3d engines from scratch - didnt have any of this easy premade 3d systems we have today. Adeline was hardcore :P
