5.0 out of 5 stars Baldur's Gate to Icewind Dale, February 7, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Icewind Dale: The Collection (DVD-ROM)

Well, I bought this thinking it would be another Baldur's Gate which was fun for me, but the pace of BG was a bit slow. I was surprised to find out that Icewind Dale let you kick more arse and level up much higher than BG. Also the New spells and multitude of weapons was awesome. The missions were designed well, and the graphics are astounding. If you like D&D rules, and if you're in the mood for a great tactical combat RPG with high levelling, this game is for you. Also, this game runs on most computers, even with low quality hardware (like mine) which I thought was a plus. The expansion is also included in the collection, which I thought was a really good deal. Lots of enemies = lots of fun. Definately a great game.

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Icewind Dale: The Collection (DVD-ROM)

I repurchased this game awhile back, before I upgraded my machine,and I was bored so I installed Icewind Dale I,HOW,II. It runs beautifully without a glitch. So if you have been kicking around the idea of buying it and were not sure it would run, well buy it. Not much to say about the game itself (love it)and so many battles. I'm pausing the game so I can rest. Its a hack and slay from hell.
