Generic BG1 review [Posted on 2007-07-26]
Theres a steep learning curve, which is hard to get over at first but once you get a hang of the navigation and hotkeys the game is godly. Theres a loose storyline which you are destined to follow (although you dont really have to). The game is very open ended and you can pretty much go where ever you want straight from the beginning which is a nice thing to be able to do. Recommend playing on easy the first time around. Character creation determines how you will interact with your surroundings and how you will play the game giving it excellent replay value.
a good buy.

Blast From the Past [Posted on 2007-09-07]
This Game Is even Better than I remember and Tales of the Sword Coast Add on makes it an totally incredable game the graphics the voice overs the background music I love every aspect of this game I have the entire Collection and several other BioWare made titles If you are at all a D&D fan then this game will not let you down it is the closest to the pen and paper as you can get and the multiplayer is just awsome hands down the only complaint I have with the Game isnt even a complaint really and that is that it is much harder than I remember but I have been playing BG2SOA for so long I forgot what its like to be so low of a level other than that the game is overall my all time forever most Faverite game only followed by its sequel if you are a RPG fan get this game you will not be dissapointed it has almost nearly unlimeted replay value and each time you play you will get a different play each time......enuff said

A classic RPG [Posted on 2007-09-28]
This is a must-have for any RPG fan, and this is especially true for those of you that enjoy the lore behind Dungeons and Dragons. The original Baldur's Gate alone will take hours and hours to complete. Add to this the expansion Tales of the Sword Coast, and you have a game that will take you months to complete (unless you do nothing but play video games, then it may only take you a few weeks to complete). The storyline is really good, and the graphics, although now dated, are still very good. I enjoy the over-the-top view that this game offers, rather than the first person view of some other games. The only game I have ever played that offers the first person/over the shoulder view that works well is Morrowind.

Needless to say, pick this game up and enjoy the old school RPG at its best.

Overall = Excellent

Great game [Posted on 2008-03-11]
I received this on time. No scratches, works great. Really fun game, you can do a lot more than just play it, you can play with it.

It defines Linear games. [Posted on 2008-03-18]
I've been playing RPG's since Final Fantasy. This game was a way to linear for me. Not enough freedom of choice.
