Two of the best games ever made for $6.

Good Old Games, this is the best present ever.

Wooo, I fucking love GoG. Not many old RPGs I want to own again missing anymore. Next up - Wasteland.

Meant to ask about this yesterday.  The title sounds familiar, but I never played it as far as I know.  So, it's good, I take it?  Is it like Star Control, or what?

I scratched that itch a while ago buying the original game in its glorious EA flatbox.  :heart:
And when I want to play it, emulation is the way to go.

But yeah, the gog treatment for Wasteland would be nice. While a Steam treatment would be a dream.

Also, fuck yeah Starflight.

Going from what I can remember from the superior Amiga version ( :drill: ), it's would be fair to call Star Control a spiritual sequel to Starflight.

Starflight provided a procedurally-generated galaxy (completely different every time) with 269 stars and somewhere over 800 random worlds to land on and explore... with a mere 640k of code. It also had a story - rather a clever one - and aliens that were actually alien.

It's the grandfather of every science fiction RPG ever made.

And it was amazingly fun.

I remember marking my trade routes in ink all over the big map included in TRADE ROUTES OF THE CLOUD NEBULA
