 GameSpy:
"Baldur's Gate was the game that introduced the now-famous Infinity engine, and almost single-handedly revitalized the computer RPG genre." That's what we wrote on GameSpy in 2000, roughly two years after Baldur's Gate hit store shelves in November of '98.
In the years just prior to Baldur's Gate, with the notable exception of 1997's Fallout, the computer RPG scene was a relative wasteland.
Baldur's Gate was not always to be based on the D&D rules set and Forgotten Realms world.

 IGN Boards - Baldur's Gate 3 is on the way!!!
I don't want them to run the Baldur's Gate name into the ground either, but let's think about it: at least this way they'll TRY to give us a game that is at least somewhat like the unforgettable Baldur's Gate series.
After all, if the game was a sequel to the BG series and you were playing as the same character, you'd be above level 40 and you'd either be a god or someone who can rival the gods...
Also I must protest that if they dont put the option in to import your old Baldur's gate characters and not gunn abe too happy, as NWN was supposed to have that option and it fell through.
