Goodbye GOG.com

Serpent Isle was my first ever RPG...it took me around 5 years to actually pass the knight's test in that game (bloody secret doors!). I used to just wander around aimlessly, cheatmapping my way around the island looking at all the weird and wonderful sights. Then I found out how to pass the test and the whole plot opened up...great game!

Empire Earth is free today, as well.

Tex Murphy: Pandora Directive, Another World, Ultima 7, Sanitarium, and Crusader: No Regret.

 

Was going to pick up the Spellforce games, but I think I'll see what Steam's christmas sale is like. If that's even 25% off, it'll be the same price as gog's 50% off.

Well that's a shame and embarrasing for them. Gotta check if the purchases I tried were actually charged from my credit card. I guess I won't playing Dungeon Keeper or Temple of Elemental Evil tonite...

Everything seems working so will grab Ground Control 2, Crusader, Stronghold Crusader, DK2 and Tropico. Might take a gamble on Haegemonia and Runaway : A Road Adventure, anyone have an opinion on either ?

I liked Runaway. There's three games and GOG only has the first. Though the first is good as a standalone and probably the best of the bunch. 2 gets into some sort of alien conspiracy, but 3 skips over the consequences of that to get back into mobsters.

Went a bit overboard and got : PS:T, both Crusaders, WC 3 and Privateer, Caesar III, DK2, Runaway, Haegemonia, GC2, Tropico and SMAC.

 

Not a bad way to blow $50.

the remake of.

И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,
И његова сва изгибе војска, 
Седамдесет и седам иљада;
Све је свето и честито било
И миломе Богу приступачно.

Now, if we could just get the American Revolt expansion too :shifty:

Nice, not much left to cover all the really good old games.

И његова сва изгибе војска, 
Седамдесет и седам иљада;
Све је свето и честито било
