Avoid empire of magic, Ive read quite a few reviews and none of them liked it much.
Wizardry 8 is a very old school RPG, if you have played any of the others in the series you will like it.
BG2 is a great RPG with a good plot and NPC's. I love the way the NPC's talk and bicker amongst themselves. Fun!
NWN is good but not as good as BG2. I miss my party <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />. You can have a henchman and I played a ranger so I had an animal companion as well, but it still wasnt as good as BG2. On the plus side the construction kit that comes with it is quite good and there are a lot of good fan made modules out there so you will get a lot of value for money.
