All I have to say is one thing.  I had to go to the doctor's office after playing this game because I got a cyst on my but!  He said that I either got it from hitting it on something to hard or from sitting in one position for to...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

This is one of the greatest RPG's of all times.  I didn't buy it when it came out, I got it after a friend gave it to me recently.  Since then I haven't been able to step away from it!  Before I was all about Diablo/Diablo 2, but Baldur's Gate is a...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

To begin with I think it is important to say that Baldur's Gate is a brilliant RPG. In fact it is one of the best.

The story of the game is very non linear and this gives a great feeling of adventuring when you walk around and...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Of all the games I own, this is one of the precious few that I find myself coming back to again and again.  Probably the first RPG I played (before this I was all FPS, baby), this will always hold a special place in my heart.

I remember talking to my friend about video games one day, and he mentioned that Baldur's Gate was a really cool game.  The next time I was at the store, I noticed Baldur's Gate for about 10 bucks and decided I'd give it a shot. What a surprise was...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

Baldur's Gate is a decent RPG, suffering heavily from the Infinity Engine and its lacklustre AI.  You basically form a small party of adventurers from around the Baldur's Gate world and set out to explore the land, find out who killed your father...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

It's commonplace now to say that Baldur's Gate revitalized the CRPG.  This is probably a fair claim, but it risks making Baldur's Gate little more than a historical data point.

BE WARNED: The game starts off kind of slowly, so if you find yourself bored in the beginning, just grin and bear it, and your patience will be rewarded with one of the best RPGs ever.

Back in 1998, people were saying that computer role-playing games were dying. They pointed out the steady decline of historical sagas, such as Ultima and Might & Magic (although MM6 was, arguably, one of the best in the series). They said that...    [ Read The Full Review... ]

What a huge improvement over the old "Gold Box" AD&D games.  The now outdated Infinity Engine brings this particular gaming world to life like none before.

Baldur's Gate is a good adaptation of the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons rules and there lie its strengths and weaknesses.  AD&D put too many limitations on character growth and this happens in Baldur's Gate.  Depending on your character's class...    [ Read The Full Review... ]
