Baldur's Gate

Pros: Blew away any RPG I've ever played, set new industry standards
Cons: Some glitches, too many Fed-Ex type quests.

It's pretty safe to say that the PC RPG market was taking it in the rear from Console RPG's for a while there. There was an abundance of RPG's for the PC you could find, but a lot of them weren't really that good. The very nice people at Black Isle...

Pros: Great plot, very much variety, great replay value, cambat systems, if your lucky you might meet some TSR characters
Cons: Hard to keep track of five CDs, can be hard, takes up lots of space

This riview will be in the dialect of jive, just for the plain fun of it.

De best RPG ah' have played since da damn kin''s quest series. When ah' saw dis game in some issue of GQ, ah' saw it had da damn graphics uh fallout (I lata' found out...

Pros: sound plot, great music
Cons: slow to load, too many disks!

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...

Pros: Excellent graphics, sounds, and multiplayer capability
Cons: Main character dies means gameover even in multiplayer, your friend talks to anyone everyone has to stop and listens to it, experience cap

What do you get when you mix AD&D elements, Black Isle Studios, and an awesome story to back it up? You get what you see before you, Baldur's Gate. All you AD&D fans who are familiar with the Forgotten Realms will recognize Baldur's Gate....

Pros: A true computer roleplaying game
Cons: None at this time

I bought this game because I'm into roleplaying games of TSR. I been playing role playing games for at least 16 years. The game is a good price for the cost of most games.

I choose this game because interplay been known to make great...

Pros: graphics, variety
Cons: so many discs, slow to load(on my machine, anyway)

You know, they say to consider certain points in a review. Why I bought the game, for instance. Problem is, I honestly don't remember. I heard about it from somewhere, thought it sounded quite interesting, and bought it. It turns out it was an...

Pros: Great graphics and variety of options
Cons: Minor AI problems

As a veteran of AD&D since the Gygax days I wondered if any computer game could ever come close to the real thing. Baldur's Gate does! In multi-player mode you can select your six character's races and classes and roll up their stats. You want...

Pros: great engine
Cons: not enough adventure

As if all of this wasn’t great enough news for the hardcore RPG fan, Baldur’s Gate also has a great multi-player option that makes it easy and rewarding to journey with friends. Tal and I found multiplayer to be much like the single player mode with just...

Pros: Great single player game
Cons: Awful multiplayer game

Why did you purchase this game?

I bought this game because I have always loved RPG and AD&D in particular. I have always thought that the AD&D computer games didn't live up to their potential. This is the first one, that I have ever...

Pros: Excellent RPG
Cons: NONE

I was doubtful when I purchased the role playing game, Baldur's Gate. I had heard from friends that it was not everything it boasted. Boy was I in for a surprise. I was stunned by the opening cinematic sequence. I had no idea that this game would be...

Pros: Outstanding graphics, excellent story
Cons: The characters talk too much, and complain way too much

Okay, this is it. The computer role-playing game of the millenium. First- don't try to run this game on any old computer. Fair warning, you heard it here first. Despite what the box says, anything less than the best will have you frustrated and...

Pros: true to AD&D rules and general feel of game
Cons: addictive, difficult at times to keep your characters alive

I became obsessed with role playing games when my parents forbid me to play them,(way back, when the movie "Mazes and Monsters" had first come out), and I played them anyway..sneaking out(mom, I'm taking the dog out)to my friends house for an...

Pros: AD&D, graphics, sound and animation
Cons: Too much hours of game

Baldur's Gate is the best rendition of D&D play I've seen in a video game. If you played D&D growing up (I mean with dice, not those stupid cards) with your friends, than you should go out and buy this game. The game play is amazing and you can...

Pros: Graphics, spells, plot, characters, Forgotten Realms
Cons: Multiplayer version isn't so hot

I wanted Baldur's Gate the moment I heard about it. I mean, its was the newest RPG staged in the Forgotten Realms. I _love_ the Forgotten Realms. Elminster, Drizzt, Blackstaff: These were the figures of my dreams. Mage battles, orcs, elves, the...
