The new 64 bit update to Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 is so surprising.

I hadn't played it for many years as previous versions just didn't work but the new one works flawlessly.

Just in case you come across this, this NG is mostly dead. Comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.action is still active
and welcomes RPG talk.

I keep thinking of trying BG2 as so many has said it's so good, but I couldn't ever get through 1, it's the game
play that kills it for me. I love the party NPCs though, Boo, "Stop touching me!" etc.

What does 64-bit do? Does 64-bit OSes not able to play the original games?

What I could find:

[BGE change to...] "...a 64-bit supported title, which helps improve compatibility with modern systems.
However, this comes with a small trade-off as 32-bit systems are no longer supported."

I don't know how 'small' I'd consider that, though I don't run any 32-bit systems. It wouldn't work on
older systems.
