Here are the patches: http://www.interplay.com/support/patches.aspx

If you have "The Original saga" then no patches are needed.

Then I think that you don`t need a patch but I am not 100% sure. Try to look on BioWare`s page.

The 5+1 does need the patches. The original saga is 3 discs and do not need to be patched.

What difference do these patches make. They seened to be talked about alot. Does it take away from game play if you do not have them? What changes or differences does the patches make to the story line / game play?

Patches don`t make any diffrence to the story. But they do affect the gameplay. They fix crashes in the game for example. They are not neccesary but very appriciated.
