ever been a time where you just screamed at the monitor because one of your all time fave classics made it? Several times for me, Crusader, Wing commander, last express, dungeon keeper. All we need next is Hitman contracts or Mass Effect

When the Baldur's Gate series and Plancescape: Torment were introduced I simply had to buy 'em immediately.

i agree and i was so pissed when they had that D&D sale god i bought most of them at full price

strange, hasn't that game been abandon ware for some time?

Hmm. Well its different games for different reasons.

I totally bought the D&D stuff when that was on sale to get them all and at that price- that was instant buy.

Then this is what I call my Amgia-Games

Settlers 2, Populus, Syndicate, Cannon Fodder, Alien Breed + Tower Assault, Superfrog,
Worms United

I remember spending hours playing these great games on my brothers 1200 so when I saw them here whoop-whoop!...just haven't got round to getting Alien Breed + Tower Assault, Superfrog and Worms United yet but hope to soon.

When I joined all the things I was interested in was already here. They've since added Thief 1 and 2 but the only exposure I had was the fourth.

When I found out that GOG had The Pandora Directive. I think it might have been at the height of my revision period and I was completely broke, so got my girlfriend to buy it for me and spent the next 24h in the world of Tex Murphy.

Abandonware isn't legal half the time

Team 17 Games, and especially Superfrog! Waiting for Worms Armageddon.

Abandonware is not a legal term. It basically means that the developers/publishers have stopped supporting & selling the game in question. It is still protected under the same laws as a brand new release.

Most games on this site were abandonware before they appeared here.

Hmmm, irawesome has new account. Couldn't you just tell us who you really are?

That's the first thought that struck me too lol.

I was thrilled when I saw Planescape Torment.
