Yeah the opening of Outcast was so loving long and BORING. I didn't wanna skip it because I might miss something, but gently caress. When I saw "Bruno Bwhatever Presents" I got kinda excited. He's the Alone in the Dark guy, right?

Industrial posted:It's a sad state of affairs when I can torrent a game but cannot access a legally purchased copy of the same game.

The obvious exception being when you are denied access to your products. Yeah, I guess you're right, Steam is pretty easy to use. I guess I mean it's not uncommon for your off-the-shelf boxed copy of the game to be a pain in the arse to install.

But if you don't install Baldur's Gate from the original CDs you don't get the loving blaring advert for Descent 3 scaring the poo poo out of you at the end. Your loss.

Yeah the PST trailer is on the disk for Tales of the Sword Coast, I think. Installing the entire set of IwD1 and 2 and BG1 and 2 treats you to some cool trailers along the way.

doctorfrog posted:This is an attractive deal, considering that if these come to GOG, they'll probably be in the high price bracket, and sold separately. OTOH, owning a game via GOG is almost more exciting than owning the boxed version of an old game these days. I'm pretty sure back then all the backgrounds and sprites were using really poor compression so they took up a shitload of space, and I don't think we had MPeg compression for the FMVs, either.

Messiah is a bit broken. If you possess a policeman, all the police trust you, but if you run into some police who are shooting some monsters and you try to help by pulling out your gun and shooting the monsters too, as soon as the fight is over, the police turn on you for using a weapon. I got upto the last boss when I was really young and the game was okay, but it really needed a few tweaks to make it "good".

I still have all the original Syndicate releases on my shelf. The nice big boxed european ones with all the floppies, the american revolt one, and also Syndicate Plus. Going to be nice to not have to gently caress around with dosbox or VDMSound to play it. Six dollars gently caress yes. edit: No, wait, I'm supposed to say "gently caress you GOG you're devaluing my video game collection for a cheap dollar!!!!"

Discount Viscount posted:How's the Playstation version of Theme Hospital, out of curiosity? It's been up on the Playstation Network for quite a while, but the fact that no one has brought it up here in the past any time Theme Hospital talk/wishing was happening leads me to believe it's probably not worth it, especially with this release now available. Dumb controls, runs bad and no music.

Is the GOG release of Theme Hospital the DOS version? What the hell? Does it come with the Windows version, too? The DOS version was hideous.

Galaga Galaxian posted:GoG.com seems to favor the DOS version of games when available, probably because of how easy it is to get them running smoothly thanks to DOSBox. That's DOSBox, but that's not the DOS version of Theme Hospital. The DOS version doesn't have SVGA as an option in the menu at the top. I guess they worked a bit of GoG magic on it?
