1.0 out of 5 stars Get The Silver Collection, June 27, 2000

This should really be labled as Collection 0.5 it is the first collection released and only includes half of the games from the silver edition collection. None of which, by the way, have been reworked to perform any better.

3.0 out of 5 stars Classic CRPG, October 2, 2003

First of all, understand that these games were cutting edge for their time. They were a step up from the old black and white text-only games. From that perspective, these games were incredibly well done. If not for these games, there would have been no NeverWinter Nights, Baldur's Gate (1 or 2) or PlainScape or any other number of the CRPG's that are out now.

If you want to take a step back into the past and enjoy some well-formed gaming, try these. NOte: I reccomend trying them on Win 98 or with an emulator on WinXP. Any of today's modern systems are so fast and advanced that the game(s) may not play properly or at all, unaided.
