Silrog: MoO2 is imho the best 4X game ever, but if GoG and Atari should have the brilliant idea to set a $10 price tag I will gladly refuse and be happy with my disc.
taczillabr: So you are fine paying $40 for example, for Sins of a Solar Empire collection, but refuse to pay $10 on a classic and genre-defining game? With no discs, no patches annoyance, win7 support, etc? I don't get it.
EDIT: What 4X PC GAME is better than this and you can get for $5 or $6?
Hey, I also appreciate the good old times. But don't forget, we are humans and thus its typical to rate the past a bit too high. ;)
So no, I won't pay $10 for a game from a decade ago - especially when I already own it or know it from A to Z and backwards.
As you mentioned SoSE as an example, you can get SoSE for €8. Gold won't be much more expensive if you chose and act wisely. And that is pretty much the case with every modern game, especially for the PC.
