This is not exactly what you're looking for (in terms of using a pen and paper in traditional D&D style), but I can tell you the game that is the best replication of D&D (2nd edition) rules.

Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn and the Throne of Bhall expansion. You can usually get them together on Amazon.com/etc.

It follows the rules to a T in almost all instances. Beyond that, it is absolutely epic in scale. You'll be playing for months and never getting bored. It's entirely possible that you've played this in the past, but if not, consider this a high recommendation for the best D&D-themed RPG I've ever played. Possibly the best RPG period.
