Talisman was an old board game from Games Workshop. It was kind of a board game, and kind of a role playing game. A board game in the fact that there was a board, some dice to be rolled to see how many spaces on the board you moved, and game pieces. But it was a role playing game also in the fact that your game piece represented a character that had abilities, equipment, and even magic. These abilities increased and decreased over time depending how many battles you won or lost. It was a really fun game and me and a few friends literally spent an entire summer playing it when we were back in middle school. They announced awhile back that a company would be developing an Xbox Live version of the second edition of the game (Which was easily the best edition!) Up till now all I had was a "Fall of 2007" type of release date. Well, I have been checking around maybe once or twice a week to make see if any more updates about the game or it's release date. Well today I struck proverbial gold on the matter!!! Here are some more links about the game (stolen right from the Wikipedia page!):
