Constantine XI posted:Something tells me $10 is a little overpriced considering I can buy Fallout, Fallout 2 and Planescape in one pack at Wal Mart for the same price. You should absolutely do that. Copies of PlaneScape go for like fifty motherfuckin' dollars on eBay, last I checked.

Constantine XI posted:I'll support whoever gives me the best price. And I'm not sure how supporting some website based in...Poland?...is like supporting a local business. I'm not saying it's a bad site or anything. I'd definitely consider buying some titles from them. It's just that given the age of the games and the fact it's download only I feel the DOS titles should be no more than $5 apiece. $5: A-OK! $6: gently caress that, I'm going to Wal-Mart

Can anyone running Windows 7 attest to Fallout 2 running properly? The version from the White Label Fallout Collection, with the latest Killap patch, has the rainbow colors bug and I can't get it to go away. I'd be willing to rebuy the game on GOG if I knew it would work properly.

I doubt they did this without at least first getting the okay from someone at LucasArts. Considering that Beneath a Steel Sky wasn't made or published by LucasArts, they probably didn't have any say in the matter.

Jinnigan posted:Sacrifice and Giants are both kind of similar in that they are goofy games that make a serious effort to bend their respective genres. Sacrifice is an RTS game that controls like an action RPG (You are a mage! who summons dudes and fights with them), while Giants is more of a classic story-based action game. Sorry, I remember enjoying Giants when I was young but I don't remember anything about it. Giants also has RTS elements: certain missions have you collecting the native creatures to build structures and produce equipment.

Even now the game holds its own well mostly due to the distinct lack of turn based games even now. If you don't like taking turns you can switch it to real-time mode but blech that takes all the fun out of it. You recommend against it, but it's good? What?

Bethesda has filed a lawsuit against Interplay for breach of contract, and is demanding that Interplay stop selling Fallout-branded products: http://www.gamespot.com/news/6217290.html I wonder what this will mean for the Fallout games on GOG, since they're licensed by Interplay. Hopefully GOG will be able to work out a deal with Bethesda to keep selling them.

Overwined posted:Well Steam has the older FO games with Interplay listed as their publisher. So if Steam has a similar deal as GoG has, that's good news because you have to imagine Bethesda would not like to interrupt sales. Hell, since everything is already set up on both sites, it would seem like there would be almost no trouble. All these sites really have to do is change the publisher listed on their sites and send the checks to Bethesda instead of Interplay. It's probably a little more complicated than that.

From GOG's Twitter: "Some great announcements coming up on the site in the next few weeks/months! This press release I'm writing now... drool." I hope with all my heart that this is related to the rumored Planescape: Torment rerelease.

All of the video in the original game was in Quicktime format, which is horrendously inefficient in regard to file size. They've probably been re-encoded as H.264 files or something.
