BG1 + TOTSC
BG2
IWD
Diablo
Diablo 2

Next stop : Heart of Winter, Never Winter Nights, RA 2

BTW u guys have any idea where can i get Menzoberranzan ? I got mine screwed.

As for you guys who played BG2 before BG1, if you are the curious type BG1 is worth buying since it tells you the beginning of your quest. And don't ever complain about the quality or whatever ! Keep in mind that BG1 is released before BG2....that's why it's called BG1 hehehe

As for IWD the only comment i can say is it's a fun game with lots of whackin to do !

daemon,i thought Fallout 2 is not AD&D.Am i right?
As for Menzoberranzan,it can be found in a recent compilation of Interplay,with many old AD&D RPGs.The compilation is called "Archives Silver Edition" (i think).

Hey, KidD01, if you really want to get RA2, I hope you intend to do lots of multiplayer games.

I bought it, but yet haven't had the opportunity to play multiplayer games. However, I did play the singel-player campaigns. They're average in length, 12 missions for each side. But the missions themselves are fairly short, and you should be able to finish each campaign within 10 hours. And although I finished the game twice with both sides, it doesn't have as much replayability as you might expect.

I have to agree with the general consesus that IWD is worth it, I got stuck really bad a few times and almost pulled all my hair out, but other than that I thought it an improvement on BG1.

They definately should not make a sequal to P:T it would just be wrong, it would sort of be like the sequels to Psycho, it would be the equivalent of a sequel to Dark City (everyone should watch Dark city it is truly excellent).

Oh i did play the original Fallout which has possibly the best intro to any game ever Image
I do not think these are classed as AD&D.
I'd have to get drunk every night and talk about virility...And those Pink elephants I'd see.
