    What we asked:

    Q: Which of the Infinity Engine games (including their expansions) do you think has the best story?
    (606 votes total)

    Planescape: Torment (245) 41%
    Baldur's Gate 2 (242) 40%
    Baldur's Gate (86) 14%
    Icewind Dale (33) 5%

    Although it seemed in the first three days of the poll being online that Planescape: Torment would win the poll outright, Baldur's Gate 2 started gaining many more votes in the second half of the week and was brought extremely close to Planescape: Torment in the end. The final results are:

    Planescape: Torment was voted the game with the best story by the majority of people, 41% of them to be precise. Considering that PS: T was played by considerably less people than BG2, this makes its victory in the poll even more convincing.

    Baldur's Gate 2 (and Throne of Bhaal) came in close second with only three votes less and was voted the game with the best story by 40% of people. In this case it's just the opposite; many more people played this game but not PS: T.

    The original Baldur's Gate (and Tales of the Sword Coast) is in third place with 14% of votes, some of it probably due to the age of the game and the fact that quite a number of people haven't played it.

    Last place goes to Icewind Dale (and Heart of Winter) which was voted the game with the best story by only 5% of people. Most likely by those who haven't played any of the other games listed above.
