Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Although they take place in the Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> rendition of the Forgotten Realms setting, they are not often regarded as a part of the Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> series, as the plot is unrelated to previous games, and they were console-exclusive titles - never released for Windows and Macintosh as the original games in the series were.
Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> is a popular series of computer role-playing games that take place on Faerûn, the main continent from Dungeons and Dragons'sb> Forgotten Realms campaign setting, set in the years following the cataclysmic Time of Troubles (1358 DR).
The first game in the series had the player character start out as a powerless orphan, raised in the monastery of Candlekeep, to the south of Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> and north of the kingdom of Amn.

Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> for PC Review - PC Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> Review

Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> is, of course, also the first fairly hard-core RPG that you can play multiplayer, either over the Internet (Gamespy is included with the game, or you can play it over the Heat network) or using a more local connection.
Interestingly, although Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> is a party-based game, the storyline is based around a single main character, even in the multiplayer version of the game.
Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> deftly avoids that design trap and is perhaps the first game to implement a chapter structure and yet still grant you tremendous freedom to explore the gaming world in a very nonlinear fashion with a party composed of members chosen by you.

Seriously, this is a video game, and if ur an evil character with an evil party, it would just make the game more fun to be able to kill anyone and everyone.

Heart of Winter (Icewind Dale Add On) Video Games at Shop Ireland

Get Baldurb>'sb> gateb> 2 instead, the best roleplaying game there is, which is also more of a thinker game and has more of a plot, as opposed to the hack and slash style of play that Icewind Dale employs.
I don't own Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> 2 yet but this game is a nice indifferent change from BG but keeping within the realms of the forgotten world.
It'sb> brilliant, although slightly harder then Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> in the early levels, this can be overcome be spending time setting up good characters at the start which is well worth it in the end and enables enjoyable gameplay.

Reviews

While some will recognise some of the music from the previous Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> games, this is in no way a bad thing as the music is very well composed and captures the mood of the game precisely.
Although it picks up from where Dark Alliance left off, it is still an ideal game for players who are new to the Baldurs Gateb> collective.
Definitely an all time great, for newcomers and for those who have played previous Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> games.

Amazon.co.uk: Baldurs Gateb>: Dark Alliance II (PS2): PC & Video Games

I myself have been a long time fan of the old pc series of baldurb>'sb> gateb>, tales of the sword coast, shadows of amn and throne of bhaal.
Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> II is addictive mostly by the willingness to buy that next weapons upgrade to see the damage and to see what the higher spell will do when you've gained that bit more experience from seeing to another enemy.
Despite the Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> name Dark Alliance II, with its real-time combat and simplified stats and rules, is more Gauntlet (or Diablo if you're too young to recognise that reference) than the Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> PC games.

Diablo II has a lot more buying power, whereas the Baldurs Gateb> series is considered a much deeper Role Playing Game experience.
The game picks up exactly where Baldurs Gateb> 1 left off, and continues is the irrepressable style of the forgotten realms series.
Looking at the press release details and screenshots without actually playing the game may sound like I'm being a bit too sure of myself, but if Baldurs Gateb> II is anything like Baldurs Gateb> one and expansion pack, I'm sure it will be on my harddrive for a very long time to come.

Product Reviews - Temple of Elemental Evil: A Classic Greyhawk Adventure - HDTVEdge.com - Get the HDTV Edge with the Latest News, Reviews and Hot Deals

Another bad hit to this game is the difficult way in which to add custom player voices and portraits, which made the baldurb>'sb> gateb> series so increadable.
Compared to Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> or Neverwinter Nights (which played just fine on the same machine), this game is boring and poorly designed and implemented.
This is what makes the game shine, and reminds me of what made Baulder'sb> Gateb> game play memorable.
There have been a lot of reviews here about the bugs in the game.

Sorcerer'sb> Place - News Archive

We have most of the Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> team (plus many talented additions!) working on Neverwinter Nights, so we will be shipping a game as good or better than any in the Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> series.
Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> II: Throne of Bhaal is a fitting completion to the Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> "trilogy," but was slightly disappointing to this reviewer due to the shorter amount of playing time available for the main game itself (around 25-30 hours).
The Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> II expansion scored a 92 with this final impression.

GameSurge - Computer Game Review - Icewind Dale 2

The manual claims to be using a highly modified version of the Bioware Infinity engine - best known from its use in the Baldurs Gateb> series.
However, from past experience with playing Baldurs Gateb>, the style of gameplay as well as graphics quality have both remained quite similar.
Where the game does differ is with the introduction of a range of new mystical creatures, both good and evil, as well as new weapons and spells.

Throne of Bhaal is the concluding chapter in the Baldurs Gateb> series.

Interplay is well known for publishing such games as Baldurb>'sb> Gateb> and Icewind Dale, and is also the umbrella under which developers like Black Isle stand.

I think both the Wizardry series (eight games!) and Jagged Alliance series are great, but they are ready to close their doors.

Having played most rpg'sb> including the fabulous baldurs gateb> series, what really captures the imagination is the story line.
If you like games such as the Baldurs Gateb> Series for the PC and you refuse to stray too far away from Diablo, then stay clear.

As you begin to dwell through the first few areas, the first being a dungeon, I couldn't help but stop and look around as I saw a lot of artwork that made it feel like I was playing Baldurs Gateb>, not Neverwinter Nights.
I stopped in a room where a beholder attacks in the beginning of your quest and thought it was Baldurs Gateb>.
As evil as she is supposed to be in Hordes, I couldn't help but grin as the game Nox never took itself to seriously and there was a lot of tongue in cheek humor.

Septerra Core: Legacy Of The Creator - GameCritics.com

These types of players would probably be better off with one from the Baldurs Gateb> series, Fallout series, or the recently released Ultima Ascension instead.
The linear nature of the gameplay, which stems from an emphasis on storytelling narrative is contrary to the more traditionally open-ended style of play popularized by the Ultima series.
Everything from the characters and objects to the machinery in Septerra Core are drawn with a very stylistic look; the women and men in the game have the bizarre hair colors and unique clothing that one would expect from an anime series.
