especially if you think that tie fighter should be paid off long time ago, its insulting that disney is not making better deals and there were games where i happily paid full price like system shock 2 and blade of darkness (sadly not avaible anymore)

You and I both! Now that's interesting.

Good afternoon, back from the doctor's, and very pleased to see that the Keaneing has meant I haven't missed anything I wanted. ;)

I did. About 20 minutes before it was removed in fact.

I even grabbed a few extra copies for trading, but they are all long gone.

To be fair two cinemaware games on gog cost as much as the whole cinemaware anthology (12 games) on steam in which those two games are included and this was the point that struck everybody here at most.

When X-Wing came out back in the 90s my buddy picked it up and brought it over to my place one day and we were so absorbed into the game it wasn't funny. It defined immersion for us. As we got deeper into the missions we chatted about how fun it would be if you could play the other side and fly TIE fighters etc. Well, I guess that is probably what everyone that played the game thought including Lucasarts themselves because obviously a year or so later they came out with TIE Fighter and we got that one too and enjoyed the hell out of it, as well as some expansions for XWing. While playing TIE Fighter we eventually thought how fun it would be to have multiplayer and be able to play over the modem or Internet with or against each other on opposite sides. Again... who DIDN'T think that! And once again of course... not long after... XWing vs. TIE Fighter came out and we ate that one up too and had a blast. And of course another year or whatever later Alliance was the final cherry on top. It's really too bad that that's where it ended as those games were so epic.

Of course we also were into Wing Commander and had several of those also, but for us the Star Wars games had the edge even though both series were a lot of fun.

So awesome to see these games brought back from the dead now on GOG DRM-free.

Ah now you're bringing back memories of videos you linked to me ages ago. My lips are sealed! I'd say a pun in relation to that but I'll get in trouble...as usual :P

I always pronounce Deus Ex incorrectly, as I was reminded when watching a video today. Instead of saying "day-us" as I commonly hear, I pronounse it more like "Deuce Ex". It sounds way cooler to me :D

The Keaner Saga. It has barely moved from its halfpoint.

It hasn't come up in Wave 2 yet, so it will definitely show up in the next few hours. There are only 16 games left that haven't made a second appearance.

That's exactly what he said in the post I replied to (and QUOTED). Why are you repeating it? It doesn't change my opinion. Of course I would prefer to get the whole collection at that price, but my hatred of Steam is such that I don't even allow boiling water in my house anymore!

a new favourite for the next keane title?

At this rate, I'm not so sure...

that was between us! dammit, tarnicus.

I keep wanting to pronounce Pier Solar, Pierre Solarre (solar pronounced so it rhymes with pierre)

No need to trade, check your PM :-)
