Baldur’s Gate II & Throne of Bhaal Review @ epiGamer

The guys at epiGamer have written a review of Baldur’s Gate II and its expansion Throne of Bhaal, giving the two an overall score of 9/10. Here’s what they had to say in their final thoughts:

On pretty much an afterthought, there are also some pretty nifty extras to be had for this game. Firstly, I would heartily recommend the extra shops that came with special editions of the game a quick surf of the Internet will provide you with some great items to savour. Best of the rest lies with the talents of David Gaider, one of the original designers. Consider from him Ascension as soon as you start Throne of Bhaal ,as the ending chapter is just amazing, as well as some of his improved boss fights if your progression is that little bit too smooth. One thing to say to you and that is multiple dragons. Of course the words ‘˜back up’ and ‘˜no guarantee’ spring to mind, but the worst that can happen is a complete reinstall and you always keep your saved games. Its worth it.
