Still Bioware's best game.

Despite how awesome Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Neverwinter Knights and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic are, the Baldur's Gate series still remains their greatest achievement. The story is amazing (almost surprisingly so, because of how slowly the story unravels in the first few hours). The characters are brilliant, and the gameplay is flawless. If you enjoyed any of Bioware's more recent games, you owe it to yourself to play Baldur's Gate.
