Mikhailian Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) I don't recall when it started, but gog.com is running a sale until January 3rd. I picked up a copy (lol @ picked up) of Fallout 1 for $3.89 US. So far it's worked perfectly for me on xp.

entrerix Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 my problem with gog is that i already have most of the really good games there already, and not enough "new" old stuff is arriving. I want system shock 1 and crusader: no remorse/regret Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.

LadyCrimson Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 (edited) I already downloaded the free Tex Murphy package...haven't tried them yet. my problem with gog is that i already have most of the really good games there already, and not enough "new" old stuff is arriving. I want system shock 1 and crusader: no remorse/regret Yeah, they're slow to get new stuff. But for me that's ok, since I'm often slow to play, heh. I only get ones I either never bought myself, or where I assume/think my discs are so old they probably wouldn't work well on Win7 or possibly even XP w/out some work (I don't have/use DosBox). Which means I'd love Tombraider 1 & 2... Edited December 24, 2009 by LadyCrimson “Things are as they are.

Zoraptor Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 I want system shock 1 and crusader: no remorse/regret EA simply shows no interest in getting their old titles on any download service for some reason. I would have thought that there was a decent market for old Ultimas/ Wing Commanders/ System Shocks/ Dungeon Keepers etc which could be exploited with minimal effort but EA seems to like pretending that they never made anything prior to 2005, let alone 2000.

LadyCrimson Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 (edited) Edit: Scratch that thought. I guess it's still technically illegal for the most part, even if rarely legally disputed, so...never mind, don't want encourage it here.

Sale link http://www.gog.com/en/page/xmas09 Full game catalogue http://www.gog.com/en/search/ *ninja edit* Considering about half of those games are already on my GOG wishlist, this is epic. Glad I didn't buy them earlier. Considering Sanitarium, The Longest Journey and Psychonauts, all for peanuts. Sanitarium definitely, not sure about the others. Buy them all. I'm about to buy Sanitarium, but having already bought TLJ and Psychonauts I can guarantee they are worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I bought them all just now. Although I *think* TLJ is the one that I've already played? Is TLJ the sequel or the original? There *are* some of the old LA Adventure games on... er Steam. Ah.

Humodour Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 TLJ is the first one. I haven't played the sequel. Not sure if I want to either - it'd be like playing a sequel to Planescape: Torment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purkake Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 For the love of puppies, kittens and witty female protagonists get The Longest Journey if you haven't played it yet. It is awesome.

Tigranes Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 The sequel is absolutely amazing, though I'm not sure how you'd feel if you already played the first one. The gameplay was obviously nothing interesting, but at leasdt it didn't get in the way of the game, which was beautiful, had a great story and all. The ending was rubbish, of course, but that's really a different problem, i.e. Tornquist won't finish the bloody trilogy and would rather make a MMO. Good to see I got the right one, I'm downloading Sanitarium first but TLJ should be glorious.

Majek Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 It's not GOG's fault that Lucas and EA don't want to put them there or want to make more money. And i still have plenty old games but i still bought GOG edition because of the support they offer for them. 1.13 killed off Ja2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
