One word: ULTIMA!
The ultima games far surpass the BG games (as awesome as the BG games are). Run out and buy the Ultima Collection dude, although stay clear of Ultima 9:Ascension, it's utter shite. Seriously, the BG series are modelled VERY strongly on the forumulae of the later ultima games (namely Ultima 7 parts one and two), and I think you'll enjoy them emmensely if you like Baldur's Gate. Although I would suggest picking up the Ultima 7 WinX program (search for it at any good Ultima webpage) in order to make it run properly under windows.
