I've been longing for another good in-depth Baldur's Gate type RPG ever since BG2 came out. Nothing since has quite reached the same level as that.

Oh god no! I lost days if not weeks to baldurs gate!

This is THE game I've been waiting for

They've only just confirmed the console versions and it's the best of news. This could easily be my goty

Cover your nose boo, this is a den of stiiiinking evil!

Oooh I absolutely loved the BG series (along with Planescape Torment and Icewind Dale). Sounds excellent

BG was the title that got me hooked on RPG's. Prior to that I had played Diablo extensively for years but it wasn't strictly an RPG in the same manner. From BG I went to Ultima Online and was even more hooked.

I lost interest in Baldurs Gate pretty quickly. I got fed up with getting zapped by a spell that killed half my party every time I stuck my nose in somewhere new. Icewind Dale wasn't much better although I at least got about half way through before losing interest.

Neither were a patch on Planescape Torment.

I played about 20 minutes of a Baldurs Gate demo and thought that it was decent and might buy it when it went cheap. Never did.
