I wish they'd finish doing Special Editions on PC first. They've done Baldur's Gate I and II and Icewind Dale I but still no sign of Icewind Dale II.

I'd rather see updated versions of the Gold Box games.

Not sure how a game like Baldurs Gate would work on a console with a controller. Already have them on PC so no reason for me to get them on console.
