Tough as hell single player and cool as hell multi. Now that I've actually finished it, I must say that it's at least as innovative as Half-Life. I can't say that I thoroughly enjoyed the experience, but morbid fascination drug me through it. You really feel like you're living as someone else after a while due to the level of detail and interactivity. All in all.
Torment is, hands down, the game of the year.
I beleive the only people who would disagreee, would be those that have not yet had the pleasure of playing it. Nothing comes clsoe to eating up my play time. My votes for Baldur's Gate. My votes for Baldur's Gate. I guess I retarted.
