This game is everything that made the first game good, only more and better. The graphics and voiceovers work and the story is more engaging than the last game. the introduction of romances is also a nice touch. My only complain is...

Baldur's Gate II does not have as good a story as the first installment in the series. Let's get that out of the way immediately. The shades of evil are not as veiled, the story doesn't have the same balance of convolution, and the process of...

Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn (SoA) is in lack of a better word perfect. It has the perfect story, it has the perfect characters who are developed better than character any other game.
First of as previously stated the story is...

If you thought the original Baldur's Gate was classic, wait until you play this baby. This, in my own humble opinion is the best game ever made for any platform ever. Being a huge fan of the first game I bought this one the week it came out and...

This is probably why PC RPG exist. Having the exact same experience as being with your friends a whole week-end, playing D&D. The story is engaging, the combat system is fun and you're always looking to get more of the story.

It's about time I went back and wrote a review worthy of this game. It has only been my favorite game since the day I got it over three years ago. For me, this game has shaped what I like in my games today. I like the freedom, the numerous ways...

This is the best RPG I've ever played. The graphics are great, despite being 2D, and the audio is also very good. The storyline is epic, and pulls you into the game until you never want to leave (evidenced by play till 3am lol) and you can play...

One of the Greatest Games Ever Made
The Plot and Setting: The game takes place in the Forgotten Realms, and Tolkeinish world filled with elves and dwarves, good and evil, etc. The set up is that, long ago, Bhaal, the god of murder,...

Bought the game thinking it would be a good time and it turned out to be a bit of a disaster.
It seems that the game is just to complicated to be fun. I spent hours getting through the first dungeon and hoping that fun was around the...

Well, if you like rpgs, then you MUST play this game. it is the best rpg by a mile as of to date (2003). I have never played a more open game. Let me clarify. You feel like being evil, go for it. You want to be a hero, go for it. Steal,...

What do you mean read the manual?
If this is your average response to a game's hidden (or obvious!) depths, this won't work for you. Based around the Advanced Dungeons and Dragons role play system, this is essentially a board game...

Baldur's Gate II is one of the finest RPG's to date.
The story is involving, and character development is very well thought out using the AD&D ruleset.
There is a great deal of variability due to multiple character classes,...

Great game. My most favorite RPG of all time and that's saying a lot since I've played Diablo(I and II), Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Final Fantasy (the PSX ones at least), and Icewind Dale(both I and II). I've played this thing like four...

Another great title, Baldur's Gate 2 lives up to and surpasses its predecessor in many ways. It seems to take a cue from Planescape: Torment. Party NPCs are much more interactive. In fact, the composition of your party helps enhance the...

This is the definitive AD&D RPG. The depth of the gaming world they've created here is unbelievable. It's a shame I don't have more time to spend just wandering about finishing all the side quests.
A number of new character classes...

There's not really much more that needs saying about this game. It's pretty much the greatest game of all time (occaisionally beaten by Half-Life in the polls, but who in their right mind likes Half-Life).
They use an ingenius plot...

I haven't played an rpg since FFVII and I haven't played a PC rpg in ages. So I asked all my role playing friends what game I should play to get the best rpg experience, and most everyone pointed me to Baldur's Gate II. The practically unanimous...

I have played every RPG using the infinity engine and I never grew tired of all the games. I give a perfect score of 10 for the Baldur's Gate series, the Icewind Dale series, Planescape: Torment. These are the games that kept me awake until...

Easily one of the greatest RPGs ever made, BG2 has all the beauty of the original and the brains to match.
Leading your motley party of six this time on a quest to find out more about your divine heritage, the quests are numerous and...

Baldur's Gate II is probably the best computer type Rpg out there that I have played so far. I just don't like how everything is so small. I also prefer turn-based theme battles. Learning curve is a little off for me, and even though things...

The sequel to the ever popular game Baldur's Gate, and it definately does the name justice.
BG2 is everything that made BG an amazing game, and more. Sure there are the graphical updates and the such, but that isn't what will make you...

This game picks up where the last left off. I would strongly suggest that you play the first game through (And TOTSC if you have it) then port the character into this game. That way there is something of a continuity between the two games. To be...

53 comments before mine so anything I would say is likely to have been said before. All I have to do is tell you to take the time and play Baldur's Gate, Tales of the Sword Coast, Shadows of Amn and finally Throne of Bhaal. Sacrifice anything...
