Glad i held out from the GoG sale. This price is a sure buy for me! Thanks OP!

Great deal. Been waiting to play Planescape: Torment. Glad I finally waited.

If you have the IGN Prime membership, it's another 15% off the price, bringing it down to $5.76

Great deal. Thanks op.

So if I have the old disks from the late 90's, will they work in Windows 7? Or do I have to get some DOS program to get them to work?

They'll work. Main difference between the discs and the digital versions is that they removed the cd checks. Otherwise I haven't noticed much difference between them once you have the game installed.

I already have all these games, but I just wanted to jump in and say that this is one of the greatest deals I've seen in a long time. It seriously blows my mind. Just Baldur's Gate 2 and it's expansion can give you 200+ hours of quality of gaming. Easily worth $7 right there.
I have no idea why one poster said gog's games were cheaper when on sale. I've been visiting gog daily for years( which is where I got some of these games) and they have never been close to matching this price. This past week they had their sale where you could buy 2 of these games for $10, and get ToEE free, which is actually a really good deal. But that still would only get you half of what this collection offers, and for a higher price.

I'm glad that I waited for this too.

Can't wait to download this at home (and register to this website and whatever else I have to do - I don't think I want to try a gift card with no address info on it for this sale).

Thanks for the heads up! Amazing deal.

Now if I can only find a good deal on "free time" to play all these.

Just wanted to revisit the modding question previously asked - I shouldn't encounter any issues no matter which version I buy (either this anthology or GoG)?

If not, I'm definitely down to buying this pack (I own all but Icewind Dale on CD, but if I can not worry about installing 7+ CDs, I'm happy).

I don't know if the files from this are exactly the same as the new anology retail cds but there are some users in the reviews that had problems with mods/win7. None of them sounded too severe where you couldn't use some elbow grease and google fu to get it working.

thx OP!

actually...how long does it usually take for GOG to process a payment through paypal?
seems like its taking an awfully long time.

This isn't 100% true, my original boxed version of Baldur's Gate won't install on a drive with more than 2GB of free space.

Thanks a bunch OP.

I've been meaning to try these games out for a while and was seriously going to downoad them this week for $20 on Impulse. Awesome sweet deal.

Nice, Great info. I hope this works without issues unlike what Amazon reviewers were saying.

Also here is one for Planescape Torment:

Instantly, however Paypal probably flagged your transaction as suspicious which means it needs manually approved.

What a deal. Amazing, wow.

Those are QUALITY titles, with PST, BG2, IWD2 being the obvious gems of the collection.

100+ hours, great storyline, timeless gameplay...I wish they still made games like that, but unfortunately, they don't. Instead, we get watered down spiritual successors like Dragon Age, Mass Effect, and Dark/Demons Souls.

Never have I heard someone sound so much like a parent claiming the music of today is terrible compared to their day.
