AD@D has NEVER been better!

Date of Review:  Feb 25, 2000
Review: My new game of interest lately has been Baldur's Gate. I am a true RPG fanatic, I've played most any game you can think of. With so many character's, levels, and missions to complete this game is sure to consume hours of your precious time.

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,...

TSR Does It Again

Date of Review:  Nov 10, 2000
Review: I chose Baldurs Gate Because like many I have been playing AD&D for years. Baldurs Gate is straight up hardcore AD&D action put to life on a screen. The graphics are stunning (The weather effects look really nice if you are one of those blessed with...

WHO wants some?!

Date of Review:  Jan 19, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you love fantasy, you'll love this game. It's enjoyable many different times on many different levels.
Review: So, let me ask you a question: Do you love D&D?
If you don't know that this stands for Dungeons and Dragons (Advanced, 2nd edition rules) then that's fine, but uncool. No, really, you should want to spend your whole weekends embroiled in the...

The Rebirth of AD&D CRPGs

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2001
The Bottom Line: For $19.99, Baldur's Gate is a good buy. However, it is definitely showing its age now.
Review: Baldur's Gate (BG) marks BioWare's first foray into the world of CRPGs. Now that the sequel is out, it is a lot more enticing to check out the game that started it all for $19.99.

The single player game allows you to make up one character...

Good game for preteens

Date of Review:  Jul 17, 2000
Review: Baldur's gate has been a great game for me to play with my 9 and 12 year old boys. There is violence, but it's not terribly graphic, and from the less intense 3rd person view. They really enjoy the game, have gotten deeply into learning about the...

Classic AD&D Rules, Classic Fantasy Gameplay

Date of Review:  Aug 28, 2000
Review: Baldur's gate is an exceptionally high-quality RPG. Gameplay is based on the classic AD&D rules, so fans of D&D will find the handling of character statistics, combat, and character progression very familiar.

But, there's enough plot and...

THIS GAME ROCKS!

Date of Review:  Jun 18, 2000
Review: I would love to just spend an entire day playing this game! I never want to get off of it. You can lose yourself in this game so easily it is kind of scary. The graphics are great (check out Color Fan spell). The story-line is extremely well-thought...

The best waste of 60 hours money can buy

Date of Review:  Jun 21, 2000
Review: This is by far the best RPG I have ever played for PC. Baldur's Gate masterfully combines excitement, game-play, plot detail, and graphics to produce the most enjoyable D&D computer game in history.

Addictive - Make sure you have the time

Date of Review:  Aug 8, 2000
Review: Like many others, I played a lot of Dungeons and Dragons in my younger days (late 70s early 80s if you must know) and have watched the proliferation of computer games that claim to bring D&D to the PC (anyone remember Wizardy version 1?). I haven't...
