Malcador Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Ah Codename 47, starts off good..then you're running around the jungle. Wonder when they'll get all the LucasArts games, if ever. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drowsy Emperor Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Codename 47 sucks but Blood Money was pretty good. Silent Assassin wasn't too bad either. The problem is the trial and error nature of the gameplay. You have to fail the mission 10 times to get it 100% right if you're going for the stealth approach.

Nepenthe Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) Silent Assassin remains my favourite hitman game, blood money's a good second, though.

Drowsy Emperor Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Nice. It was a notoriously unstable game on multiple core processors, I hope the got it going right.

Zoraptor Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Multicore is fixed (heh, all it needs is something like "imagecfg thief.exe 0 0" from a DOSprompt iirc) but just about nothing else is, no widescreen/ddfix etc. I understand why as bundling what are effectively mods opens a can of worms on the support and licencing side but there are a lot of complaints about it.

mkreku Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I go to GoG to buy old games that work today. If they aren't actually fixing the games in any way, what am I paying them for? Might as well go the "abandonware" route then. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoraptor Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 It is fixed. It works fine on modern hardware out of the box, er, so to speak, which is all they ever do. As I said, there's good reason for not bundling third party fixes for things like widescreen (copyright, security issues, support) and it's well outside their scope to do it themselves. They've fixed the installer borking itself on any NT based OS if you didn't know switch-fu and the game dying on any processor with HT enabled (plus the codec issues with movies, albeit belatedly) and that's all they needed to for it to work.

Gorth Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Hmm, bought Age of Wonders (already had II and III), Septerra Core (always was curious about what it's about) and Syndicate (despite not having the expansion). 1 “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Malcador Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Buy one D&D game, get one free And get ToEE free if you get any D&D game. Mind you, I guess you all have them all already.

Zoraptor Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 And GSC games added too. I always meant to check out Cossacks as it sold an amazing number of copies for a game most would never have heard of. Probably means Stalker(s) are coming as well.

Tigranes Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Cossacks is a very, very fun game. I sunk many an hour into Cossacks LAN in teenage years, mainly with a friend who would refuse to ever play competitively but build the most historically accurate of battle formations. He'd probably have won all the games if he didn't stop to role-play all the battle commands through in-game chat.

HoonDing Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Anachronox is released on GoG, play eeeeeetttt. Best sci-fi RPG of all time.

Gorgon Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Looks kinda... ugly. Looks aren't everything though. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tale Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Anachronox is still a great movie. I wonder if the game will live up to it. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rostere Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Anachronox is great, the combat is awful though. Only game I know of that added a "fast forward" button in a patch so that you won't fall asleep... "Well, overkill is my middle name. And my last name. And all of my other names as well!"
