GOG---Now selling Planescape...just how good is it?

[chooka1]

Hey guys..

Torn about whether to purchase Planescape on Good Old Games. I understand Planescape is considered one of the best RPGs of all time. I'm interested but I never played it when it first came out so I'm not sure how well it holds up/

Also, I'm not sure whether I am really going to put a 100 hours or so into Planescape rather than Halo, Fallout Vegas, etc.

Looking for thoughts... I tried to find a demo online but no luck.

The story is deeper than anything you'll ever find in a videogame (or most movies). Gameplay is "present"; similar to other Infinity Engine games, though I'd be pulling your chain if I didn't say that it's basically an interactive fantasy novel.

Ok..I bit. What the heck, about the cost of a movie. I figure I'll see what all the fuss is about.

Great Avatar. Who is the character?

Its supposedly a very different game. One were you actually have to die to progress and gain new abilites. I always meant to get a copy so I just grabbed it.
