| The Last Alliance | Wildfire Games | ? | This is either cancelled/abandoned or put on hold until 0 A.D. reaches some point in development. Latest news by the authors seems to be from 2006, though there might be something (unhelpfully) posted as replies to other threads.***What Is The Last Alliance? To best answer that question, it's important to know what TLA is not. TLA is not a commercial computer game. We are a freeware, fan-based project inspired by pure love for the project. We will make absolutely no profit from this project; TLA offers us innumerable intellectual and emotional profits by itself. TLA is not a movie-based game. In fact, we feel that the movies, while they are entertaining, have done a lot in the way of making the true Tolkien experience rather bland. Many 'new' fans of Tolkien are only fans because of the movie and these fans lose out on what the more classical fans have: mental images of Arda before the movie. So one of TLA's goals is to shake up the mainstream a bit and introduce new, original thinking when it comes to Tolkien's work. TLA is not a Lord of the Rings game. Seems counterfactual, true, but in fact TLA encompasses all Three ages of the Sun. The timespan that TLA covers is an astounding 7045 years; by comparison, the events in LotR happen within a single year. So if you know Tolkien's work only from LotR or the Hobbit, prepare to have your mind opened and served to you on a shining, mithril plate ;-) TLA is not officially endorsed by any 'official' organizations, namely the Estate of J.R.R Tolkien, Tolkien Enterprises, The Saul Zaentz Company, or Vivendi Universal. Now for what TLA is: TLA is a celebration of the life and works of J.R.R. Tolkien, and the efforts of his son, Christopher and it is to these two to whom this game is dedicated. TLA is dedicated to the research, preservation, and evangelization of Tolkien's works. We aim to teach with the project, and to continually learn in the process. The project to us is a computer game, yes, but it is merely a means to an end, and that end is the education of fans of Tolkien on his works and the stimulation of the Tolkien arts and literature. TLA is a purist's paradise. We study every aspect of Arda in depth, from language, tengwar modes and the Lhammas, to historically styled dissertations on the Wars of Beleriand. We do our absolute best to ensure that we accurately portray Arda with our project. TLA is held together by pure fellowship. The WFG team is made of talented men and women from over fourteen different countries, with ages ranging from 14 to 63 years. We're held together blindly by our respective goals and our passion for making games. [Zerothis]***Development of TLA started soon after the development of 0 A.D. and has followed a simular path. It shares many resource with that game. TLA is considered a 'sister project' of 0 A.D. [Zerothis] | labelminimizesubject |

| Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness | Blizzard | 2013 | [url=http://news.softpedia.com/news/Blizzard-Confirms-Warcraft-and-Warcraft-2-Might-Arrive-on-Modern-PCs-398782.shtml]This article [/url] suggests that Warcraft I and III were to be part of this release. This may yet happen, as the availability on WCII (this entry) is so well hidden; they could be waiting to release an all-in-one trilogy pack. | labelminimizeminimize |
| World of Warcraft | Linux Game Publishing (Linux Game Publishing;Blizzard) | 2013 | Linux Game Publishing saw to it that this version of World of Warcraft was 100% ready for publishing. LGP agreed to publish, maintain, support, update, and otherwise handle [b]every[/b] time and expense of this release, thereby removing all liability from Blizzard whilst Blizzard would enjoy the same profit per sale as a they do with the versions of WOW they handle themselves. Blizzard canceled just before publishing citing no reason at the time. Other comments from Blizzard representatives strongly suggest that Blizzard considers the Linux platform "untargetable" due not to the hundreds of distros available (as some companies have whined), but the [i]possibility[/i] of more distros becoming available in the future (note, different versions of Mac and Windows happen on a regular basis for various systems like intel, arm, ppc, desktop, portable, as well). However, this oft mentioned reason would have no validity whatsoever if applied to WOW for Linux, as LGP has already agreed to take on the imagined burden of future distro possibilities. Note also that Blizzard's argument assumes that all Linux Distros, past, present, and future are and will always be equally popular and completely incompatible with each other. They also seem to have not considered targeting just one distro, maybe two, and letting users or volunteers handle other distros themselves (unsupported but not activly prevented by the developer) exactly as hundreds of Linux developers do now for the 7500+ Linux games available. Further insanity is that Blizzard has maintained this version at least until 2011 and probably since. | labelminimizeminimize |
