Baldur's Gate is quite possible my favorite game of all time. I play through it at least once, pretty much unmodded, once a year just to remind myself why I love it so. I've beaten the first one two or three times and it's pretty good but it feels more like an AD&D campaign than an epic quest. It sets up the truly epic factor for BG2 though.Seriously, this game hasn't aged as well as some other games from that year, but it comes highly recommended and you can get it for $10.
