Goodbye, sweet husband. . .

Date of Review:  Jan 13, 2000
Review: Okay, I did like this game. I played it a lot. I yelled at it when party members died, insulted it when I (shh) did something stupid, and cheered when my party emerged intact from deadly situations. But I went into the game with a good idea of what...

Yes, oh omnipresent authority figure...

Date of Review:  Aug 4, 2000
Review: Baldurs Gate is such an impressive game that I have yet to come up with one adjective to sum it up, so I'll have to use several. A few that come to mind are: addicting, engrossing and huge.

You Begin in the Candlekeep Inn and all is not...

Baldur's Gate: One of the Best RPG's to Date!

Date of Review:  Jan 16, 2000
Review: I have been playing computer games for years - especially fantasy RPG's. Simply put, Baldur's Gate is one of the best I've ever seen. It provides an open, realistic world in which you decide where to go and what to do next, but still allows you to...

If you cant stay up late don't play Gate

Date of Review:  Mar 5, 2000
Review: Baldurs gate is a dream come true for all of you old school AD&D fanatics. It encompasses a rich story line with dozens of sub-plots and outstanding graphics while remaining true to the original game rules. Lots of towns and areas with NPCs to...

Bad as I wanna be

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2000
Review: A realistic RPG? Well few RPGs are truly based on realism but instead an unwritten code of magic and fable. Recently games have strayed from that standard. Games like Diablo (while fun) left the gamer with a fast paced hunt and destroy experience...

bugs crawling

Date of Review:  Mar 9, 2000
Review: Baldur's Gate would be a perfect game if it didn't have so much bugs. Even with 3 updates, I still experience trouble running the game with a moderate speed CPU. Also I don't appreciate the fact that my character could only gain a limited experience...

Like Playing D&D With A Bunch Of Idiots

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 2000
Review: During my Commodore 64 years I had been a devotee of SSI's official Advanced Dungeons And Dragons computer games, completing both the Forgotten Realms and the Dragonlance series many times over.

For years these games sated my hunger for...

This game will eat your life.

Date of Review:  Sep 13, 2002
The Bottom Line: It's neat, but will steal your life away, leaving only a dim memory of sunlight in its wake.
Review: Although Baldur's Gate is easily the funkiest RPG computer game I've ever played (this is admittedly not too hard as it's a genre that I generally sneer at, with only Ultima Underworld 2 and Ultima 8: Pagan breaking my embargo), I must warn you...

Finally, a real RPG

Date of Review:  Mar 7, 2000
Review: hard core RPG fans have been aching for something real for a long time. Fallout was a good sop for a genre that was lacking anything. And then Baldur's Gate came out. It had all the things a hard core RPG fan wanted, stats, gold, lots of weapons,...

Finally a realistic RPG

Date of Review:  Feb 25, 2000
Review: It is rare that I find time to play computer games these days, but when I do there is nothing I enjoy more than immersing myself in a good RPG. When I purchased Baldour's Gate I was hoping just to have interest in the game for a week or so. I was...
