Oi Gamespot. I wouldn't trust their reviews after all that payola BS with Kane and Lynch, but the metascore on this game implies that Gamspot doesn't have to BS on this one.

It's the sequel to Baulder's Gate 2. So he's probably been waiting since Baulder's Gate 2 released.

it's a shame that the console versions can't quite match up to the PC version.
that's the way it SHOULD be - games of this nature (baldur's gate style RPG's) are best on PC.
