Guest Slinky Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Tomb Raider 1+2+3 now at GoG The first one is still one of my all time favorites, just the theme song sends me to my happy place.
Undecaf Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 The Colonization screenshots have possible hidden hints for upcoming releases like: System Shock 2, Diablo, Wasteland and Loom (there's also Privateer, but that is already in the catalogue; and Pirates, but I'm not sure if that's a hint towards Sid Meier's Pirates or not).

Gorth Posted May 31, 2012 Author Posted May 31, 2012 The Colonization screenshots General Vincent van GOG... At least it looks like they test the games. I have to have the TR I+II+III package. Just for the ability to run it on my current PC. Edit: Carmageddon Max Pack Eek!!! “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Zoraptor Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 Ultimas and Wing Commanders for $3? Yes please. I think I'll hang off getting Privateer and the earlier WCs until their expansions arrive though since I've still got their CDs somewhere. And I'll soon have expunged the stain of never having played a mainline Ultima.
Humanoid Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Only ones in the list I don't already have on my account are WC4 and U8 - and I have multiple boxed copies of both. Will buy them anyway though, beats having to user-mod WC4 for the DVD quality movie version and U8, well why not. The expansion thing is a bit weird though: LOAF on wcnews.com claims to have contacted both EA and GOG: "EA tells me there's no problem with GOG including the mission disks. GOG tells me EA won't give them permission. I have literally yelled myself hoarse at these people. (And maybe it's telling that GOG apparently doesn't realize they're already selling Privateer and Wing Commander 2 with the speech packs?)" Sounds like there's a communication breakdown somewhere there. EDIT: Back in the 90s, WC1-3 were rereleased in a compendium called The Kilrathi Saga. It didn't come with the expansions, but they were available to download free from EA's FTP. I remember grabbing them through dialup. I have heard some people have had success adding it to the GoG version. Edited June 2, 2012 by Humanoid L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
Monte Carlo Posted June 2, 2012 Posted June 2, 2012 I'm thinking of getting BG2 on GoG then I'll never have to worry about where my discs are ever again. Is the GoG version patched to the last one so it's good to go mod-wise?

Yeah but they've said they will start working on BG2 if BG1 sells enough...which I'm sure it will. The best flash game ever!
MacMichael Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 GoG released both Worlds of Ultima, Savage Empire and Martian Dreams, today for free. They're great games and would be worth paying for, if it were neccesary. I'm going to need better directions than "the secret lair." -==(UDIC)==-
mkreku Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 I never played those. But since getting into Ultima 7 has proven almost impossible for me, I don't have high hopes for these two. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Humanoid Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Being spinoffs of a kind from Ultima 6, that's a fair assessment. A new starter should certainly start with U7 then if left wanting more, go back to U6 and only after then explore the chronicles. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
Tigranes Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 The Battle of the Games continues. Today the Last Express is only $2.40, and it looks like Jagged Alliance 2 will win tomorrow, putting it at $4. I already have JA2, but I picked up Myst for $2.40 before and I'll probably pick up the Last Express too. Gogogo!

Labadal Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Cool, I would have answered it anyway, but it's never wrong to get a free game.

Drowsy Emperor Posted September 13, 2012 Posted September 13, 2012 Startopia is now on GoG. Made by ex Bullfrog (Dungeon Keeper, Theme Hospital) employees in Mucky Foot its the best (and only that I know of) space station sim ever made. Good humor, excellent visuals, deep design, really - what's not to like? I urge anyone with any interest in sci fi and sim games to try it, its one of my favorite games of all time even with its flaws. И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,И његова сва изгибе војска, Седамдесет и седам иљада;Све је свето и честито билоИ миломе Богу приступачно.
Hassat Hunter Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 Have that in my game-library for years, bought it in a shop once for 1 euro. It's good? Maybe I should try it one day (have a major backlog though)... Aaaaand, as for news, all kinds of RPG's are on sale! Kinda doubt most of us here don't already have the most important ones, but for those who don't; http://www.gog.com/en/promo/hasbro_stacking_promo?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=game_subject&utm_campaign=hasbro_stacking_promo ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created.

Drowsy Emperor Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 Startopia is unique. It has its share of problems, but its really the sim I played the most of all (although I'm not exactly a sim nut). Its good in the same way Dungeon Keeper is good. Its a better sim than DK but the mechanisms of conflict are worse. И погибе Српски кнез Лазаре,И његова сва изгибе војска, Седамдесет и седам иљада;Све је свето и честито билоИ миломе Богу приступачно.
Gorth Posted September 16, 2012 Author Posted September 16, 2012 You guys managed to make me curious.

Malcador Posted September 16, 2012 Posted September 16, 2012 Got Startopia, Gangsters and the D&D games. Doubt I'll play any of the latter, though, heh. I guess I'll jump into Startopia first.
