    Haha, no it's not my quote, even though if you asked me a month ago, I'd definitely agree! ;)

    A short preview of the game has popped up at The Mushroom. Its writer is frustrated with the length of the game, but still awards it 9/10 mushrooms:

    I have to say right up front that I didn't finish Baldur's Gate 2. I probably never will. That doesn't mean I didn't love the game, or enjoy the time I put into it. In fact, I think it's probably the best RPG ever made. Some may consider the primary flaw of Baldur's Gate 2 to be just how immense the world is. One thing's for certain though. The first time I popped this game in, it had me hooked.

    I was lucky enough to have four days off from work, and they all went by in a blur. Four days, no moving, no eating, no talking, just playing. It was a pathetic sight. If my girlfriend came in the room, she would just get a glare. I'm very surprised she's still with me. It was only when the game reminded me to eat that I would take a break to grab some grub. Four straight days. I haven't done that since Final Fantasy 7, which single-handedly ruined my freshman year at college.

    Read the rest at the Mushroom.
