Brian Fargo is about as old school as you get in terms of game development. Having created the original Bard's Tale series, Baldur's Gate, and Fallout, Fargo knows a thing or two about action role-playing games. Now in charge of his own studio, inXile, Fargo is about to spin another great tale for the gaming public with the release of The Bard's Tale on PS2 and Xbox this October and early 2005 on PC.

We spoke at length with Fargo to get all the intimate details about The Bard's Tale. How does it compare to Champions of Norrath? Is it Men in Tights kind of funny? Why do we giggle everytime we say "booby-trap?" All these questions and many more are answered in detail.
