Great game. Lots of characters. Some of the sub plots are difficult to follow, however.

These games may not be brand new but they're still as fun as most things that come out now. The Baldur's Gate series is one of the best PC RPG's made, easily worth the price. And instead of having 3-5 discs per game as the original box sets, you only have 4 in total, huge improvment.
A Perfect Game June 3, 2009

Such an amazing game! Many other reviews have gone deep into gameplay specifics, so I'll leave them out here. I just wanted to say that this is a required game for all PC RPG players. It's truly phenomenal with a great story and great characters. Plus, there's a mod that can be found online that will link all four games into one giant game, making it a truly epic and exciting experience.
Its A Great game that you can play again and again. May 13, 2009

I like this box set. This is the third time I have played Baldur's Gate. I enjoy and learn different things every time I play. Baldur's Gate isn't a fast action pace game, you can take your time and play at your leisure.

This was the LONGEST the MOST FUN games I have ever played! And, mind you, I am not an easy customer (feel free to browse through all my reviews, you will see what I mean...)
The original BG series was excellent in all of storyline, gameplay, music and stability. Now, nowadays, sequels usually mean a graphically-improved expansion (at best). BG2 is a rare exception of the sequel clearly SURPASSING the original. And in the case of such great original, this means a lot!
Words fail to describe the perfect harmony of brilliant ideas, emerging story-line and detailed coding that makes this game an unsurpassable classic! This COLLECTION contains all the sequels, patched with the latest fixes. Do not let the slightly outdated graphics discourage you. They were cutting edge only some years ago - and you will be able to unleash their full potential even on mid-range PCs!
I have yet to meet anyone who has played it and not raved about it! Hard-core D&D funs will find the character building, fighting checks and balances and overall experience very close to the actual pen-&-paper games.
Casual computer gamers will notice none of the tedious stuff of other cRPGs as the gameplay runs smooth and beautifully.
You even have the choice to turn it into either a turn-based or an action game by tweaking the auto-pause options! I am telling you: this is how computers games should be!
You will let yourself get lost in the deep dungeons of the labyrinthic story; you will be laughing out loud to the humorous dialog; you will be surprised as to who is a double and triple-agent.
There is an evil beyond imagining unleashed and only you with your party can stand in its way.
Party members offer a multitude of unpredictable balancing points and diverging story-lines of their own: side quests, conflicts and love affairs enrich the story in so many original ways!
A collection of unsurpassed classics!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
