On display at E3 is King's Bounty, a remake of the original with real purty graphics. Both IGN and GameSpot offer a brief preview:

Both reviewers betray a mindset at odds with mine (I was going to say "with reality" but your mileage may vary) regarding what constitutes an RPG.

The GameSpot reviewer says: "Like in many turn-based games, the entire area was covered in a honeycomb-like movement grid." Yes, many turn-based wargames employ this grid, and that's basically what King's Bounty is - Heroes of Might and Magic (or Warhammer), a tactical wargame exercise with a fantasy overlay; no actual story or characters.

But hey, at least it's turn-based. We may be having a turn-based Renaissance!

W-O-W!! That is so cool looking! I didn't really even read much about the game itself, but seeing a hex-grid turn-based fantasy game looking that good is so exciting!

Fantastic! Will definitely be watching this one. 1C Games publishes some really interesting stuff, but I've never seen the games for sale over here in North America.

Looks very interesting!

I recal the original a little bit, I remember the box cover but don't remember much about playing the game.

I played the original alot, enough to complete it on hard. The sequal looks interesting... hopefully they've kept the gameplay that made the original fun...
