For years now fans of my epic fantasy series A Song of Ice & Fire have been writing and emailing me to suggest... ask... beg for the books to be made into a videogame. I'm thrilled to be able to announce that, at long last, those requests are being answered. Cyanide Studios, an independent videogame developer based in Nanterre, France, has acquired an exclusive option to develop Ice & Fire as both an RTS (Real Time Strategy) and RPG videogame for next generation consoles and PC.


Hopefully they wont kill the game.Anyone know much about this studio thats making the games?

I have heard so much about this series.
I am really considering reading it.
I have it on my iTouch already.
What do you say?

Definitely read it. It may start out uninteresting but oh does that change. Probably the best fantasy series I've ever read. Everyone I have recommended the series to has loved it.
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

Boo for not posting the Starks.

I don't think the RTS is going to be anything special. I have high hopes for the RPG though. Never heard of the studio, but I think it will be better in the hands of an unknown(?) studio but are fans of the series.
I know where my towel is.

An RPG where you already know the story can't possibly be interesting, and I don't think anyone here could have high hopes for an RTS.

The books are definitely awesome though. I've read 100+ fantasy novels (maybe closer to 200 these days), and A Song of Ice and Fire is my favorite series.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

Eh, I don't know. There are a lot of RPG's that I know the story to already and still continue to play over and over. It should still be interesting.

Although I'm obviously not getting my hopes up for the RTS =/

and to scyper, definitely read it. It starts off seeming a bit cliched, but that changes so much.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU - when I saw the title I thought the new book was out -_- But a video game is nice too. Just like that HBO series. It's all just so wonderful.
Excuse me hun, but what is your name? Vivian? I woke up next to you naked and, uh, did we, um?

I almost hate to say anything here, for fear of jinxing it... but for what it's worth, the last six weeks or so have been the most productive period I've had on A DANCE WITH DRAGONS in... well... a year at least, maybe several. In the last three days I've completed three new chapters. Not from scratch, mind you, these were all chapters that had been partially written, and in some cases rewritten, for months if not years. But they're finally done, and I've just reread them, and I'm almost convinced that they're Not Crap.

We'll see how I feel tomorrow.

Anyway, I know I don't talk about DANCE frequently here, and that's not going to change. Sorry, but I'm never going to be one of these writers who blogs daily about how many words they produced today. I don't like to talk about the good days for fear of jinxing myself (all writers are superstitious at heart, just like baseball players), and I don't like to talk about the bad days... well, just because. Writing is like sausage making in my view; you'll all be happier in the end if you just eat the final product without knowing what's gone into it.

But I am making a small exception now because... well, I'm feeling rather jazzed right now, and for the first time in a very long while, I think I can see a glimmering that might just be a light at the end of the tunnel.

Now if I can only slash through the Meereenese knot that I've been worrying at since 2005, I may actually start to get excited.

lol I've basically forgotten about this series since I read the 4th(? don't remember) book years ago. RTS might be okay, RPG sounds boring though... there's so many characters they'd need like a revolving-character-storyline thingy in order to make it work (assuming they're gonna follow the books).

It sounds like he has really hit a wall with the series, but I kind of anticipated it considering the relative quality of Feast for Crows, it honestly was pretty bad, I can't imagine he is truly pleased with it either.

I know people are still enchanted with the first three and the series in general, but if Dance with Dragons never comes out I am more than happy to pretend the series just ended on a downer with Storm of Swords.

... those are the games cyanide has developed so far - taken from their "online store". seems like the logical choice to take such a company that has in depth experience with the genres RPG and RTS. let's call it the "SK syndrome".

on a more serious note: how can he expect that they will produce a high class rpg / rts if they don't have any prior experience with these two genres? it's more than unlikely that they could deliver a worthy product on their first attempt.

but let's see...
