Baldur's Gate

Baldur's Gate is by far the best Role-Playing Game out now. Ask anyone who has played, and they'll agree with me. Sure, its five disks long, and yeah some of the activities in the game is a bit monotonous (Rescuing people, killing bad guys, blah blah blah), but it is a hell of a lot better than some other games out today (Ever heard of Pokemon???). If you have ever played TSR's Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, you know the basic mechanics of the Game already since it uses those rules. If you've played AD&D and hated the rules, don't worry, the game handles the AC and THACO automatically. The bad points are that it is a bit monotonous, and in the single player mode you can only have 1 player. Those are both minor problems and can be fixed with trainers available on the net.
