BG website nostalgia

This web page about Baldur's Gate seems to have survived unaltered since 1999:
http://www.thecomputershow.com/computershow/hints/baldursgatehints.htm

There's a FAQ, a 'cheats' section and several walkthroughs

    When you read through the FAQ you realise you have been paying this game far, far too much. :D

    Love the colour scheme for the website as well.

    Thanks very much for finding this.

    I've seen uglier for sure, but what is that graphic at the top supposed to be?

    horrible color scheme
    There are some great sites about Baldurs Gate that never changed the appearance (most likely just abandoned)

    http://yiya.de/games/index.htm
    http://baldurs-gate.ch/
    http://mikesrpgcenter.com/bgate/index.html

    Much much better design work on those

    @Yamcha - mikesrpgcenter is great and I still use it sometimes to get item codes. ;)

    Drizzt Comments I think the best way to fight if you dont want to die but you still want the experience points is to summon a bunch of drizzts to fight for you thats wut ive been doing for most of the game and it works good all you have to worry about is traps 1 more thing when you use the summon drizzt cheat can you steal from him or if you kill him can you take his stuff i tied to kill him but hes to strong
    Oh my god



    I wonder if he ever found out about Werebears?

    No, the Internet looked much more like an old Unix command line.

    EDIT: having written that, I now am trying to recall when the first Unix shell was written; it might have looked more like HEX code, for all I know.
