    I feel your pain. I'm thinking about ordering one from amazon. They'll sell a brand new PS:T for 5$!

    ToEE was kinda laggy. and the maps were just too damn big. I probably wouldve kept playing if they had made it a bit more like BG or BG2 in map size, with loading areas and such :/

    I thoroughly enjoy Baldur's Gate, I love Forgotten Realms. I love the open endedness and not being based in one base-of-operations like in IWD and NWN.

    I loath NWN OC :flaming: . And as I've never played multi-player or ALFA, I hate NWN. They just went back a step compared to BGII and BGI in terms of gameplay, story, NPCs, quests, adventuring, creatures (few are as they're supposed to be in FR) and it just agrivates me. :flaming:

    I haven't played PS:T either though... :rolleyes:

    Planescape Torment is really awesome. However, I still haven't finished it and I've been playing it for years ...

    I'm always getting distracted by something else. I definitely want to beat it when I can, I just don't have the time at the moment.

    I enjoyed Neverwinter Nights for a while, but honestly, the OC just isn't that great. I played through half of the Witch's Wake module and felt it was twice as good as the entire OC. I need to pick up Hordes of the Underdark as I hear it's brilliant.

    Not interested in TOEE -- and especially not in POR.

    What great, and heartfelt, answers. Thanks to all of you who replied. (I've been told that I MAY be getting a copy of Planescape for my birthday. Damn you, uncertainty!)

    Whee! I have PS:T! It arrived in the post yesterday and my Mum was going to send it back thinking that it was sent to the wrong address (addressed to a mysterious 'Aikanaro', you see :) ), but fortunately my sister knows my screen name :D

    Sparhawk the Pandion - you rock :)

    Good to know it got there. Now you will *know* the greatness of PS:T, and in *knowing* grow strong :)

    I did get PS:T; I'm about 1/3 of the way through; and I can only add my accolade to all the others above: What a great game! It immerses you.
