So here’s some big news: Dino’s Ultima Page — once the foremost resource for Ultima-related news, and certainly an inspiration for the Codex — was launched thirteen years ago as of today. And in a spirit of celebration, Dino the Dark Dragon has been making some updates to the page:

…I have resumed maintaining the information component of the site. There is still a long way to go, but a lot has been done last weekend:

• Cleaned up dead links in the following Ultima information pages: Ultima 2, Ultima 3, Martian Dreams, Ultima 7: Serpent Isle, U8 Walkthrough (Other Walkthroughs section).
• Restored and the following Opinions pages: Ultima Opinions (General Info section), Ultima 7: The Black Gate.
• Fixed Codex of Ultima Wisdom links throughout.
• Added info from LairWare’s Ultima 3 to Ultima 3 info page.
• Replaced several images in the U8 Items page with transparent equivalents, added some new images, and refactored some sections into tables.
• Replaced book and scroll background images in U8 Writings page with transparent equivalents, and replaced the previous/next page links (for books) with page corner images.
• Added links to video playthroughs to U8 Walkthrough page.
• Migrated the old General Info section into a single top-level page with the new(ish) layout.
• Various other small fixes and enhancements.

Take some time to browse through the treasures buried in the depths of this website, from the treatise on the Guardian’s teeth to the interactive Ultima 4 dialogues.

And of course, take the time to write what you think about the Ultima series in the newly restored Ultima Opinions page.

That Ultima Opinions page is woefully short…or, at least, the list of fan-submitted opinions is. Might I suggest hitting it up and leaving behind a few thoughts of your own?
