Master of Orion series, Silver, Outcast, Rollercoaster Tycoon series, and more Atari All-Stars 60% off

Accelerate into amazement, astonishment, and astoundment as the abundant amassment of authentic Atari awesomeness arrives! Our new [url=http://www.gog.com/en/promo/atari_weekend_promo/]Atari All-Stars weekend promo offers you with an incredible selection of 26 Atari games and you can get each and every one of them 60 (yes: s-i-x-t-y!) percent off. Whatever your taste in games might be, you're sure to find something new (or old) and exciting for yourself. We've got space strategies, tales of the Wild West, lovecraftian survival adventures, ultra-violent shooters, theme park sims, medieval RPGs, nautical adventures, and more. So much more. Let's look at some of the games from this supreme selection to give you a better idea of what kind of a promo you're dealing with here. Shall we begin with something otherworldly?

Master of Orion 1+2 series is a paragon of sci-fi managerial strategy. Lead your race towards galactic domination in a universe full of opportunity. Those games are so complex and satisfying, that you could easily play them for years.

Silver is a colorful RPG that looks like a fairy tale and plays a lot like one of Final Fantasy games. It was, however, developed in Europe so its setting, aesthetics, and storytelling are something completely different than what you would've expected to see in a jRPG.

Outcast is an incredible adventure in a open-ended sci-fi world. The game uses the retro-futuristic technology of voxel graphics to represent one of the biggest and most imaginative gameworlds ever to grace computer screens. Check out this unique gem that really came ahead of its times.

Rollercoaster Tycoon Deluxe lets you create and manage the amusement park of your dreams. Design the rides, set the prices, draw in visitors, and let the profitable fun begin! Be sure to check out the sequel, Rollercoaster Tycoon 2, and the feature-filled Rollercoaster Tycoon 3: Platinum! for even more theme park building pleasure.

Before you rush off to the [url=http://www.gog.com/en/promo/atari_weekend_promo/]promo page, there are two more things that we'd like to tell you. We'll be adding some new extras and bonuses to our Atari games today. As usual, we have some of our amazing community members to thank for providing us with this content. Our gratitude goes to users: jeremiahh, SpooferJahk, and Daedolon (the man behind The Postmortem, the biggest community website). Remember to check inside your virtual boxes of [url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/alone_in_the_dark]Alone in the Dark 1+2+3, , [url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/master_of_magic]Master of Magic, and Blood. This also gives you a great opportunity to check out a new GOG.com site functionality. Your games' shelf now comes with a new sorting option, so you can easily find new and recently updated games in your collection. How to use it? Consult the screenshot hovering around this paragraph--it's pretty much self-explanatory (just click to enlarge it).
Damned, I used 70 bucks on this offer. I didn't realize Infogrames/Atari had published so many great (sounding) games.
I haven't spent so much money on games in many years. Before joining GOG the last new game I bought was Dragon Age from 2007, which I found in the bargain bin.

Endzville: Question though: how is Darklands and Star Control 1 & 2?

Darklands is what I'm more concerned about though. Is it true that it has a fairly steep learning curve?
Personally I found it was easier to get into than I had thought, but a very well written manual helped. I highly recommend using the pregenerated party to get a feel for the game. If you find you like the game, roll new and better characters; the character generation is very well done in this game.

The combat is real time with pause and takes some getting used to.

The alchemy portion is the most complex part of the game, as it takes some effort to gather all the ingredients you need, and finding new recipes.

Well, that's my wishlist a bit smaller.

You'll be giving Eidos the same treatment next week, right? ; )
Awesome promo. I'll probably pick at least one of these games over the weekend. I almost bought RCT 3 Platinum the other day, I'm glad I waited woo-hoo.
Finally grabbed both I-Wars. Didn't play the first one but do remember nights of roaming through the space in a small ship and listening to the ambient music, can't say much about the game itself, but that alone was a fantastic experience! :)

Thanks. More or less convinced to pick it up too now given that I found a pretty in-depth video review as well.
I'm unsure if I would really play Total Annihilation. Does it have a lot more to offer than SupCom FA?
I just had to buy Riddick: Dark Athena.

Damnit, if gog keep dishing out good offers like that, i have to eat barley porridge for the next several weeks, -_-;

I haven't played Supreme Commander, but a lot of folks hold that TA is better.
got alone in the dark 1 already, but is a new nightmare any good?

I say you should go for it - if you do enjoy complexity, you'll certainly be satisfied with what Darklands has to offer.
So true! Bought Rollercoaster Tycoon and Colonization. Classics never die!

andrestv: GOG is evil. It's almost impossible not to get something from this promo.
Darklands, Alone in the Dark 1+2+3 and Colonization are looking to me...
Does anyone know if I need a flightstick to play B-17?

Nvm. Read some reviews it is recommended.

Unless someone knows something I don't, From personal experience the joystick is mandatory in order to be able to use the gun turrets at all. Mashing every other key did nothing.
