I got BG (4 in 1 pack) and love it.  I now want to upgrade my PC.
Can anyone recommend what components to choose for a new games PC?
I'm looking to get a top-spec machine, but not *the* best machine
ever

For those of you who find that Oblivion is just a plain boring
worksheet of eye-candy junk and Neverwinter Night 2 is a suicidal
buggy roller coaster, here is one old school type of RPG game that I
highly recommend to you:

I'm not sure if this is the best newsgroup to ask this.
I wonder what people think about LCD displays with the darker games. I like
to dim the lights and play 3D dungeon crawls. I like games like Arx, Thief,
Ultima Underworld, Oblivion, Morrowind, System Shock, etc. I currently ...

Do Speed and Multi Strike affect unarmed combat in Fable?
Thanks.

I think Nostro was asking about lurker-to-post ratios, so I thought I'd
offer this statistic.  And, if you think I'm wrong, well, 3000 people

I'm surprised to see no conversation about The Witcher in here well apart
form one post.  Got it last Thursday. So far I'm enjoying it.  It's not a
great RPG but it's enjoyable.  I like the world and the main character a
lot.

And it ain't even Christmas. I offered them
$20, but got the usual jargon about 8 to 10
months before the price would drop. Hell,

Which should I buy?  Either these 3:
Baldur's Gate (4 games in 1) package
Neverwinter Nights (incl 2 expansions) package
Icewind Dale (incl 1 expansion and IWD 2)

5 or 6 posters who reply to each other (you could do better using a
mailing list...), an occasional newbie or troll who drifts away
immediately, and 4,000,000 spammers.
I guess not having anything to talk about for years at a time takes a

I was lucky enough to get a Baldurs Gate 2 T shirt when I bought the
game all those years back. I've never seen one on Ebay so I have no idea
how rare or common they are.
Are they worth anything ?

I'm a complete Zelda newbie so some of the questions I'm going to ask
may be obvious. I picked up a GBA to play the game, and am  currently
playing Zelda - A Link from the Past. I'm wondering is some of my
confusion about the game mechanics due to the fact I've never played

Hellgate: London seems to be designed like World of Warcraft and other
MMOs -- but for a single player. (Yes, I know about multiplayer in the
game.)
I wish Blizzard would make an offline version of World of Warcraft,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to install the game without
disk 2.  Can anyone help me?

I just finished the Prophecies campaign of Guild Wars playing only
with henchmen. Quite a fun romp and I was surprised at how good the
henchmen played. It's just a matter of learning what they will do and
working around their few faults. I played as a Warrior/Monk and
