Continued Success for Baldur’s Gate

Continued Success for Baldur's Gate adds another piece to the February 1999 gaming business rush, from chats and contests to deals and studio moves.

Continued Success for Baldur's Gate is another February 1999 item worth filing away, because the small notices often tell you where the industry is heading next.

The names attached here include Black Isle Studios, RPG, Interplay Entertainment, January 1999, and PC Data. The platform angle centers on PC. The hook is LAN and RPG. The hard numbers include 500,000 units and January 19.

It may not be the loudest headline of the month, but these deals, events, and announcements are the gears turning behind the games.
