Slight miscalculation in the excepted attention this announcement attracted?

What does "enhanced" mean?
EDIT: I hope it isn't voiceovers for every character….

I never finished Baldur's Gate! I stopped at around chapter 4, or something… so yeah, me too. I'll take it!

Oh, if it's higher resolution graphics/UI I'll take it, too. Especially if we are talking about the first BG.

It's a dark and gritty 3D version with spectacular cinematic scenes fit for next-generation systems! Relased on Xbox 360, PS3 (and PC).

Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition is going to have new content for the game you love, made by some of the original team members.

No word on what happens to the old content? Will they just add new content to the old engine or maybe an updated BG2 engine? Seems a little unbelievable. They could be doing much more, so I expect to hear more from them!

That's good news/bad news.
Good news is that there will be much needed enhancements to the engine.
Bad news is that a re-forged version of IE is not likely to work with existing mods.

Enhanced Edition eh? It better not be "rebalanced" for today's generation of RPG gamers.

I wouldn't mind an iOS release either …
