Talk:The Wheel of Time (video game)

I have added the complete storyline, but it is completely lacking links to other WoT articles. I may remedy this if and when I find the time.

Further, I read somewhere on the internet that Robert Jordan had no part in making the game and that its canonicity is questionable, but could not cite references. Hope somebody else can elaborate on this. I am also fairly certain that there are more issues contradicting the books than the few points I could remember when writing the article. 84.187.204.63 14:18, 28 April 2007 (UTC) "and should not suffer death, or even removal from existence" are you sure it causes removal from existance I thought it simply placed the soul in the soul heap or wherever they go becuase the Dark One could not catch themJamhaw 21:59, 6 November 2007 (UTC)jamhaw
 * Another thing we should add the fan sites they are the best sources of information after all the only ones I know of are ShadarLogath and Planet Wheel of time I would do it but I do not know how.

Abandonware
I have always wanted to get this game and it is clearly abandonware so is there anyplace to get it could I download it from somewhere? Oh, and before someone lectures me about the "evil" of abondware I quite simply can not get it becuase I have only found it on Amazon and they only ship in the United States (and I am Canadian). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.169.113.63 (talk) 22:15, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Hey I did find w w w . s a h r s . n e t / w o t, but they say it is only for people who already own the game and just had their discs get scratched but since their advice is buy it on Amazon and they don't ship outside the 'states  it probably would not hurt.

WHAT THE HELL
The game was "critically acclaimed" and one of the most underrated gamse blahblahblah? You have GOT to be kidding... I own the game and I can tell you it was total CRAP! An Aes Sedai who can't channel, so uses Ter'angreal as AMMO? A poor weak plot with crappy graphics and a list of other problems? Just my opinion but this was one of the worst games I had played. I really thought it was that bad - it doesn't deserve this huge wiki page, just a smattering of details >< —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.149.46.231 (talk) 13:14, 11 December 2007 (UTC)


 * You don't know what you are talking about, you are just another troll... this is an awesome PC game with good gfx, good online multiplayer gaming (especially the citadel multiplayer game-mode, unbelievable good)... believe it or not, I have been playing this game since 2001... anyone interested check WoTmaps dot com for the best maps & PC-WoT stuff... 83.56.150.221 (talk) 18:12, 24 October 2008 (UTC) [comment by LOA]

Huh?
The game isn't canon and it takes place in one of the Portal Stone worlds according to the developer, in a parallel universe to the books. It doesn't take place 150 years earlier, no idea where that comes from. Nothing that happens in the game has any bearing on the novels whatsoever. I'll also see if I can find the interviews with the developers about how the game was screwed up in production. Originally it was supposed to be much more ambitious than it turned out and was going to be an RPG, but the publishers interfered and declared that since FPS were all the rage, it had to be an action FPS, to the developer's dismay. Considering the game's limitations it wasn't that bad, but it definitely wasn't a game of the calibre the series' immense background and setting deserved.--Werthead (talk) 16:08, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Find those interviews before you post this information in the article, or someone will delete it as OR. Once you find them, it would probably fit best in the development section. Larrythefunkyferret (talk) 06:04, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. However, I am removing the 150 years claim until a citation is provided. I own the game and this is not mentioned on the box or in the instruction manual, nor can I find any information anywhere else supporting this.--Werthead (talk) 21:16, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
 * As you said, fair enough. 'Course, this raises an issue about the Canonicity section. How much of that is true? More importantly, how much is sourceable? The wise ones tend to prefer sourceable fact to actual truth, so could you let me know if the Canonicity section is either? Thank you. Larrythefunkyferret (talk) 06:25, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
