That's the stuff.

If only I wasn't totally strapped for cash right now, but I will make getting these a priority after the money problems clear up :)

And suddenly, I am completely okay with Disney buying out Lucas.

sauvignon1: Will X-Wing and Tie Fighter work well under WINE? Pissed that there's no mac version, but I'll be REALLY pissed if I can't run them at all.
Both have DOS versions so DOSBOX will always make it work.

I also think Disney is the one who made the deal go ahead - so yay!

20+ means 21 at least or 29 at max ... so we don't know yet.

DCT: So what? maybe some of us would like to have the option to play the original game? Newer isn't always better even when it comes to remastered versions
It'll probably be done the same way monkey island was remade, aka both versions in the same wrapper.

With Disney making an unprecedented deal like this with the Star Wars games, i wonder if there really is a chance they'll release the original theatrical cuts of the movies on Blu-Ray...
Posted October 28, 2014
Well, I bought MI2, and Tie Fighter/X-wing. I can't buy everything, but they definitely deserve what instabuys I can afford.

Grey work, and thank you GOG and Disney Interactive!

MikeMaximus: Good work GOG, it's really great to finally see these titles here.

jalister: I'd rather see Bethesda here.
Arena - Daggerfall - Morrowwind - Oblivion
Bring the old Fallouts back.
Or go big and get the new Fallouts too.
Isn't it also going big getting Oblivion aswell?

I did heard from an article saying Disney is working on it, but its only a rumor at the time and so far no developments surfaced.

But I hope it happens so someone splice together the best of the unalrted and the special edition (mainly the CGI ships included in the Death Star battle.)

Thanks! I'm very excited for your company and the fans who are going to enjoy these releases. We are lucky to have this opportunity!

OH. MY. GOD.

I almost cried from joy when I opened my browser and saw the pictures of X-Wing and Tie Fighter. This is something I've waited for some... twenty years? A dream, something that I desperately wished for but never thought it possible. I've never had the chance to play these games - I could only watch someone who did - and when I finally got my PC I thought that it was an opportunity that's gone for good, that I've missed my only chance. No remake, no re-release, no working Windows version, nothing.

GOG has already fulfilled many of my dreams (Wing Commander, Might&Magic, Alone in the Dark, Sierra adventure series, just to name a few), but this goes above all. I'm basically speechless.

Thank you so much.

(I've felt an obligation to buy everything from today's games, even though I already had KOTOR and Monkey Island...)

I heard about that, but with Disney making real smart moves like this one, it kinda brings back hope (A New Hope if you will) that the theatrical cuts might actually happen.
