This won't be a popular choice, but I love BG2. I loved that I could pick when and where it would stop...for example, after a spell was cast, so I could ready another. Or after a weapon became unusable. I think having all these options was more important because I had a large party I was dealing with. If you are only controlling one character, it's not so crucial, but controlling a whole party is virtually impossible in real time.
Worst was PoR2. Awkward combat, poor targeting, and yucky interface that made me feel like I was working with an MS Office application.
