Zoom zoom zoom.

<span class="bold">TrickStyle</span>, an arcadey hoverboard racer, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com.

It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's your next-door neighbor!
In a distant future where jobs are few and hardly necessary, people have to keep busy somehow. Some watch television, some hop on rocket-powered hoverboards and make an afternoon out of it. TrickStyle is a game where speed and style reign supreme. Here, you'll zoom along twisted, neon-laced futuristic landscapes (a pleasant change of pace from the grungy dystopian settings we're so used to), master increasingly more complex tricks, and get to play around with each hoverboard's unique physics. Beautifully animated tricks and tons of personality make TrickStyle an absolutely unique, and certainly still worth trying, classic.

Eat your heart out, pro-skaters, <span class="bold">TrickStyle</span> is in town - DRM-free on GOG.com.

catpower1980: I don't know for Metal Fatigue but they did buy the rights of some Acclaim games.
If by some, you mean over 185. :P

I still have a copy of the game for my Dreamcast. Not sure if I need another on PC, but it's nice to see it available here.

I may remind people here, that Panzer Dragoon for the Sega Saturn was released for Windows as well just like many other good console games of this era.

I once had the Windows port of Battle Arena Toshinden too, it's just a real pain to get to work properly on modern systems (even WinXP) and had weird copy protection.

I still have this somewhere on a CD (or DVD ?) that I got for free with a computer magazine. It was kinda fun.

Remember when GOG stood for _good_ old games?

Did they ever? Earthworm Jim 3D and Kingdom: The Far Reaches were among their first games.

I've never heard of a Windows version before and, actually, I can't find any reference on the net either. Are you sure it wasn't a DOS game?

Wow, I didn't know there was a PC version of Battle Arena Toshinden! Yeah, it looks like it was just DOS and PSX.

Sorry, I meant Battle Arena Toshinden 2 indeed. It was for Windows, had full D3D support and was awesome. You have to use a slowdown tool on current systems though and if you try to copy the data from the CD, it will create a bloated amount of junkdata. The PSX version is easier to run but less pretty.

Part 2 had a secret character with a pistol and a shotgun that was fun and is in at least one of the sequels too. Part 1 had Earthworm Jim as a hidden character. :)

CARRiON.FLOWERS: HOLD UP, Throwback Entertainment?

Can ANYONE here confirm or deny if they are the rights holder to Metal Fatigue? I swear I heard the name Throwback somewhere trying to dig the rights up for an (unfairly) obscure game.

IronArcturus: Wow, if GOG could get Metal Fatigue...

Now that was a great RTS mech game!
Metal Fatique works great with Glide wrappers (Nglide, DGVoodoo ...), however, there are other problems.

I wonder what happened there.

Did Zoom just add it recently? 'Cause they've still got all the Duke Nukem games (not Balls of Steel) and GRID, too, and I doubt it's because they're so super special that they get to ignore the publisher licensing issues that saw those games pulled from other stores. (To be fair, I don't know why TrickStyle got removed from GOG.)
It just seems like ZOOM is small enough to fly under the radar, and the people who run the site apparently aren't gonna bother to remove stuff unless they get specifically asked to.
