Yep, probably higher resolution than the Xbox version

You don't own anything if it has activation. Actually owning something means it's worth more.

Bought.

>> Serious Sam The First Encounter

Well, I guess for people with older PC's, or newer ones that can't run SS HD, this
release should do just fine.

Sorry, you don't get to decide what other people do or do not own. Once we buy it, it's ours.

Uh...okay, but you said you didn't buy it, so no, you don't own it.

No he doesn't. But if you buy a game off of Steam, you don't own it. You own only a license that can be taken away. Technically you don't even own your Steam account. Think about it. If Valve has the power to close your Steam account without warning, what do you own?

Updated OP for today's release of the classic shmup, Raptor: Call of the Shadows - 2010 Edition for $5.99.

OMG Raptor..man it took me a minute to remember this game..I remember playing the hell out of it, probably pirated on 3.5" disks..what a blast from the past. Seriously tempted to get it!!

lol I remember playing the demo for Raptor on the Duke Nukem 3D cd! Guess I'll grab it for old times sakes.

Oh WEIRD, I remember that game! Yeah, I played the demo back in the day.

I can't wait if GOG starts offering console games too as per that one poll

>> Raptor COTS 2010 Edition

HOLY FLIRKING SNIT!!!
INSTANT BUY!!!

I completely forgot about Mountain King Software.

Classical vertical SHUMP action!

Question: was it ported to Windows, or does it come packaged with DOSBOX?

================================================== =========

Perhaps they can do the same for Galactix and Demonstar? If they don't want to include
updated graphics, that's okay, but at least have it released on GOG!

Now, if they could make a new game, with the characteristics of each of those three
games, add co-op, and many gamers would be uber happy!

Console games? What poll?

There was this poll GOG did that they had listed I think on their main page, and I think someone here linked to. Anyway they were asking to pick the three systems you'd like to buy games from based on a specific list.

They didn't have everything and I can't remember what I picked...I think it was SNES, Genesis, and Dreamcast that I picked. (They didn't list NES or Saturn I don't think...or maybe that's backwards.) Anyway obviously that implies they're looking in to that, which would be awesome! Especially after losing $100 on Nintendo's system that doesn't even have a way to transfer content to a new Wii (even aside from the activation).

Updated OP for today's release of the Total Annihilation: Commander Pack for $5.99.

Also, both Oddworld games have been price-dropped to $5.99 each.

AFTER I buy them of course

So is Total Annihilation worth playing if you're not nostalgic for it? I know it was/is a big deal. Did it have a story? Was it hard?

TA was so great. Played through te campaign ago a couple years back. Anyone know how this version compare to the one recently released on Impulse?

It's on the GoG forums. Supposedly, it's the same version.

Oh man, I could totally go for some T and A!

TA had a great story, gameplay was great.... I might have to buy it.

There's a story, but they really just amount to level briefings. It's still a really great RTS game and is completely fun to play. I'd say it's one of the easier of the genre to grasp. Some of the later levels could be considered hard, but by the time you'll reach them you should fully understand what you need to be doing.

There's tons of content here between the main game and the expansions - air, sea and land battles and everything in between. Then you've got skirmish mode and about a zillion custom maps. It's definitely worth the price even today.

Cool, thanks! Sounds like it's worth checking out (especially for six bucks!)
