Great list release to start off with as well. I totally recommend KOTOR to everyone. Had many great experiences with the game on the old xbox.

Freelancer would be awesome, I agree it's one of the golden games of old......but who owns it now though? It's not Lucasfilm or Disney is it?

They published it and the developer went under in 2006 so it would appear it is Microsoft......unfortunate really, because that pretty much guarantees we'll never see it here.

Would say that unless it's a game that the competition makes themselves, pretty much everything's up for grabs, sooner or later. People are definitely noticing what's happened with GOG and Disney, and the more people go nuts for that, the bigger a message it'll send to companies that are currently thinking that GOG isn't worth being a part of for whatever reason.

Normally I'd agree and I do hope you are right but Microsoft is as bad as they get when it comes to greed.....they just tried bringing DRM to consoles last year and this year their Xbox One consoles released in china do have the most demented forms of DRM implemented on them. I agree that this Disney deal is huge for GOG and that it's catching the attention of both gamers and the industry but Microsoft is as bad as a publisher can get.....if there's one company that will fight for DRM to the bitter end it's probably them.

We'll just have to hope that their greed, their desire to milk every possible dollar from every possible source, will drive them to overcome their cowardly backwards false sense of security approach and take advantage of this avenue as well.
