I voted others, and I have Summoner in mind, although you have no choice of the NPCs that will join but still the back story of everyone of your party makes up,all of them have great stories

There seems be two stand-alone expansions:
- Unfinished Business - This seems interesting, might be worth getting
this is also included in the "gold" pak.

- Wildfdire - This is less interesting. Seems more like a mod or something.
Might still be worth a try tho.

Still, I'm propably gonna play the original Jagged2 campaign again... and again... and again....

It's just that damn good. And the killing is so much fun.
I never tried the scifi mode.
 
I own Unfinished Business. It's closer to the original JA2 as far as I know, and Wildfire ... I think I have it in my memory that it was an RTS version of it.

And, well, if The Jagged Edge really is as close to the original as I read, then I'll definitively have a look at it.

I voted PS:T

Really liked the NPCs in there and how they tied themself to you and the story. Don't see much of that in many other games. Most NPCs in other games are very independent and are nice to have with you, but they are like side quests that doesn't have anything to do with the main story or yourself.

Favorite NPC in PS:T is hard, but I would probably lean a bit towards Dak'kon.
Going through the The Unbroken Circle of Zerthimon with him was cool, and then later finding out that you made that Circle was a nice shock effect.
