Er... Black Isle's most famous games are the Baldur's Gate duet, but really thier 'best' are Planescape: Torment and the Fallouts. While Torment was based off of a (now defunct) AD&D campiegn setting, it was a VERY unusual game. Fallout was game of the year for a few game mags in 1996, and had a bizarre atmosphere(a post-nuclear roleplaying game as designed by the authors of 'Weird Tales', maybe)
Also, since Torment and BGs 1 & 2 were official AD&D sanctioned games, they were not rip offs.
Personally, I like the FFs (except 10). But Black Isle I love.
