I got this game for Christmas and have been playing it and enjoying it. A word of caution, don't use this game as your first PC RPG. I'm still trying to figure out why Atari made it possible to go to an area when your party is level one that contains hill giants that can crush you with one wack. It can get frustrating to a rookie RPG'er. On the other hand, Baldur's Gate 1 is an excellent first game someone who wants to get into the genre.
Other notes: the portraits suck, the voices are ok, the story line is great, I think my favorite facet of the game is the turn based battle sequences. I shouldn't have to remind anyone, but I'll say it anyway, save your game often!
