That's really tempting to pick up. Does GOG do a steam like APP, or is this just an open download in your account? I would hope they do not have time limits on the download do they?

So, among others: Games I never had the chance to try, or only tried briefly: - Realms of Arkania 1+2 - Betrayal at Krondor 1+2 - Descent series - Simon the Sorcerer (dunno how I managed to skip it in all these years) - Sanitarium - Return to Zork Games I would like to de-disk: - Might & Magic VI & VII - Gabriel Knight 3 - Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy - The Longest Journey Lost disks, would like to play again: - King's Quest IV+V+VI - The Last Express Finally, sorry to repeat it, but whoever has the rights to the entire collection of these games (Atari, I guess): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold_BoxPLEASE PUT THEM ON GOG ALREADY!!!! :P (Plus Dark Sun and Ravenloft)

Amen to that, I think it will be an instant purchase for me: don't know how or why (maybe I'm a douche? :P) but I never played it, no matter the great reviews on magazines, word of mouth and whatnot It's going to be interesting, because, even for a short span, I tried out most games from the eighties-early nineties that are on GoG (and, previously, on "abandonware" websites) ; in this case, instead, I'll be a total newbie, so no " nostalgia rose colored glasses" ;)

My memories were of awesome gatling guns and a horrible escort mission. I fucking hate escort missions. I wonder if that was the first one that burned my soul. Probably not, but the game was otherwise enjoyable enough that it sticks out.

All I remember is having my own army of mind-controlled civilians on every mission. Also, a chaingun that shot rockets. (I also seem to remember that 'Atlantic Accelerator' was a huge PITA mission, but I forgot why)

Yeah, hordes of mind controlled civilians ripped everybody apart. And cars exploded when you shot them with miniguns. I think there were missions as well, but my memory is foggy there.

Because it is a map with tight bottlenecks, lots of enemies who are as tough as you and some are armed with rocket launchers that are pretty much instant death. It's the only map I remember having to scrounge for minigun ammo.

Has anyone tried Hitman yet? I got it on Steam, but it keeps crashing. Is the GoG version any better?

Codename 47? How long do you get to play before it crashes?

Codename 47? How long do you get to play before it crashes? I'm not positive, it's been a while, and I only played the game three or four times. It wasn't an "every ten minutes" kind of crash, it was "game crashes whenever X occurs" kind of deal, where X was something I had to do to beat the level, so I literally could not progress at all. I think it was somewhere in the second level, other than that, I'm not really sure.

Hate double posting, but they just released one of my favorite games: the original Thief: The Dark Project (well, the Gold edition, of it, rather). Maybe System Shock is on the horizon...?

I liked Thief 2 better, so I'm hoping for that pretty soon. I got Thief 3 on Steam, but it's buggy as hell. Tried to modernize it with some mods and the results were pretty horrible, that game took consolization to another level.

Oh yeah, lots of fond memories there. Too bad they never made the sequel. On the other hand, from the one sequel Ion Storm did make maybe it's a good thing.

Treasure Adventure Game is free as a celebration for having given away other games. Never heard of this game before. Finding it charming after playing for a few minutes. You can change the controls (and screen size I think) with the setup.exe in the installation folder. These are the default controls: Screens: EDIT: I guess this game was always $0 since being released Nov/Dec last year. Now it's $0 on gog as well.
