Yeah, they're up now and as said they cost more money.
Kingpin is on there too, which I did not get on GOG yet and was thinking I might try it out on Steam, but it costs more money? No thanks.
GOG has an uphill battle though with Steam adding more older titles. Publishers will want to use Steam since it has DRM and accounts and all that, just look at the recent Lucasarts releases on Steam.
Personally Steam's DRM doesn't bother me, I go where the game are.

Prices are at 8.99 euro for each title right now, with 19.99 euro for the fallout collection.
Which is still a blatant ripoff compared to the prices found here.

I will be not surprised if Fallout collection will make it on first place in Top sellers. But I hope more people will read forums and stuff so they come to buy it on gog instead - it's cheaper and they will get more...

A little curiosity: most of posts comparing Steam's offer with GOG's offer (which logically favoured GOG) were deleted by mods. Understandable gesture, but they still can't hide who is better.

Yep, I got red card on their forums for posting links to gog :) Advertising they said.
But i have never received any card for posting links to games on Steam. Those guys have to do proper rules what is advertising and what is not.

Zeewolf: I have noticed that both Steam and GamersGate are adding more and more older games. GG recently added a bunch of games from Gremlin, including Normality.
So the pressure is mounting for GOG, I suppose. Perhaps it's time to respond by releasing more games per week?

Yep...it's been proven now that there is money in older legacy titles.
And they absolutely should keep going as they are now, making sure everything works right before they release them.

Sad thing is a lot of people is going to buy the Fallout saga via Steam...
Posted August 19, 2009
This is pretty rage-inducing.

It's pretty funny, especially from a country that has to pay in € on Steam (Sweden).
For example: Fallout 1 on Steam is €8,99 right now that is at the current exchange rate a little over $12, which means I can buy both Fallout 1 & 2 from GOG for the same price as one of them from Steam (Not to mention the extra goodies we get here for free with our games, thank you GOG).
And besides, I don't have to have an interface running all the time which crashes from time to time (Steam Client).
Final thing: The dumbest thing Steam ever did, besides this, was the $1=€1.
Luckily I found GOG a short while after that.

Just let them. They are wasting their money when the can get the titles, GOG SUPPORT (Iove these guys. So helpful), and Buttloads of extras for a mere 5.99 (USD) per title. I like Steam mainly because some games I'm going to purchase are on there and not here, but it does feel like renting. On the plus side, they do have some nice bundles (66% HL Games anyone?) but the mods are tyrants. I never post there.
To the people who convert from Steam to here at Good Ole' Gog, welcome!

You will never see fallout on the top sales charts on Steam, I gurantee it (Unless some crazy weekend deal shows up). People buy steam games because Valve makes good games, Steam has alot of hits, and steam weekend deals. The pc crowd isn't as mindless as the console crowd, buying anything that shows up.
If you look at the top sellers currently, it's full of Valve games, multiplayer games, and preorders.
