Rifts and Rifts Promise of Power disagree on when the game was released.

The following 3 links seem to be people pushing their own fan sites, rather than relevant to the article at hand

I have cut them for the mean time unless somebody makes a good argument for returning any of them Brehaut 11:09, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

Actually, that seems completely reasonable. 24.105.192.99 05:50, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I think personal websites should be removed as this is a article, not a place for pushing a personal site. If the link is relevant to the game its self then i think it should be kept. The above sites i am familiar with and they do not reflect on the article in question. Worldgate 03:04, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Is this role playing game system the reason why the PC role playing game "Riftrunner" was named into "Beyond Divinity" ? Alrik Fassbauer 21:25, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

It would seem that the name change is used to reflect that it is a sequel of 'Divinity Divine' or so i gather from the following link. http://www.gwn.com/news/story.php/id/2789/Riftrunner_Name_Change.html Worldgate 03:04, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Any reason the footnotes are duplicated? MKV 23:52, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Movie section outdated?

I noticed the movie section of this article is probably outdated. It talks about speculation about a Rifts movie from 2004, but has no additional confirmation as of today (Jan 2007). Perhaps this section should be amended or removed as it does not appear that a RIFTS film is actually in the works, at least not officially? Dugwiki 23:21, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

I think it should remain even if it seems the movie will not be made. Perhaps if there is no other information forthcoming then it could be put in the past tense as part of history? Worldgate 02:59, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Palladium Embezzlement?

I'de like to suggest a topic on the financial blow that happened to the company. Someone stole money from the company over the years, including artwork. My writing skills suck so... Worldgate 03:20, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Are you referring to Palladium Books#Financial troubles? --Kralizec! (talk) 03:45, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Apparently I was, being unable to research for some reason. Seems clear enough to me. Worldgate 01:25, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rifts Timeline

I think it would be fun/add to this Wiki entry if there was a chronology of events pieced together by the fans of the RPG for readers.

From 2089...to 107 PA (is that where the books are now?!?) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.67.6.15 (talk) 19:51, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Citation for Vampires?

I'm unclear as to why the book by Cliff Melton is being cited in reference to Rifts vampires. Care to shed some light on it, WebWarlock, before I delete the edit for being not really relevant? ---Mr. Nexx (talk) 04:58, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
