Now that Sudeki is here, I'm hoping GOG will be able to get other Microsoft games. It would be really cool to see Urban Assault and Age of Empires on GOG!

What other Microsoft games would you like to see here?
The Midtown Madness games are Microsoft aren't they? Those are beyond stupid but man are they good clean senseless fun. :D If my disc versions of them weren't clunky as hell I'd be playing them right now.
Just one and I'll be in heaven: The Neverhood :-)
Fury 3 and Hellbender are ones I'd like to see. They were done by the same team as Terminal Velocity and are quite similar (Fury 3 especially, Hellbender added more new features.)

I've always wanted to play Midtown Madness! I only got a chance to play the Monster Truck Madness games, which were pretty good too.

Here are some links for the 'Madness wishlists:

Sudeki for PC really isn't a "Microsoft Game". Microsoft only published the X-Box version. According to the game card, the publisher is Climax Group.

Yes! I loved the Fury 3 series! GOG has to get that one!

Hmmm, what about other games that Microsoft published? Would Urban Assault still count?

I've got #2 around here somewhere. It's kind of the "Barney the Talking Dinosaur" of driving games but sometimes that works. :P The cities (San Francisco and London) are actually REALLY accurate in terms of layout but that's where the realism ends. XD My favorite is the stunt challenge in S.F. where you need to jump a car off Fisherman's Wharf and land it on a passing barge.

It all depends on who holds the rights for the game now. I have no idea regarding Urban Assault. All I can say with certainty is that Sudeki being added by GOG is not a sign that Microsoft is a publishing partner now. Microsoft didn't even *originally* publish the PC version. That was apparently Zoo Digital Publishing.

According to MobyGames, Urban Assault was developed by a company called "TerraTools."

I think what stood out for me was it may have been the first appearance of the 1998 VW Beetle in a game. Could be wrong though....
Well, I'm pretty sure I've listed them before, but it is worth repeating:

Dungeon Siege 1 (I know this belongs to Square, but still.)
Age of Empires series
Age of Mythology (The real one not the remake, they seem to have changed the art style.)
Hey, why not dream, let's have Halo 1&2 on here, not that they were wonderful games or anything. (Actually, I paid a lot of money for Halo, I'd probably not buy it on here.)
Mech Warrior/Commander series (Unless it changed hands again, which it probably has.)
Gears of War
Crimson Skies
Close Combat series (I think Microsoft had something to do with that.)
Flight Simulator
Combat Flight Simulator
Rise of Nations series
I guess their attempt at ruining Shadowrun for completion's sake.
Maybe PC ports of classic Rare games like Conker's and Banjo.

Microsoft used to be so big in the PC games industry, then they seemingly just decided to quit (after unsuccessfully trying to force Windows Vista on everyone). So sad.

LOVE Freelancer.
It's not everyone's favorite but I lost a year of my life to that game and it's not really that hard.
