1 Weekend Promo, 2 fantastic franchises, 14 classic games, $26.91 for the complete collection, 100s of hours of unforgettable gaming

all games from Wing Commander and Ultima series available on GOG.com are discounted by 50%. You have the chance to buy Wing Commander 4, or Ultima VII: the Complete Edition for only $2.99 until Monday, June 4 11:59 PM EDT.

Ultima is a series of fantasy RPGs created by Richard Garriott (a.k.a. Lord British more) than 30 years ago. The main story of Ultima universe, which takes place in the worlds of Sosaria and, later, Britannia, follows the unnamed protagonist (known only as the Stranger or later as the Avatar, an incarnation of virtue) through three “Ages”: The Age of Darkness (Ultima I-III), The Age of Enlightenment (Ultima IV-VI), and The Age of Armageddon (Ultima VII-IX). It’s one of the most influential RPG series, recognized for open-ended gameplay, in-depth morality system exploring mature themes like racism and xenophobia, and a rich and detailed world. Whether you want to try the original trilogy, visit thousands of colorful places and characters in Ultima 4+5+6, play through Ultima VII: The Complete Edition--arguably the best in series, find your way back home in Ultima VIII: Gold Edition or complete Ultima Underworld 1 and 2, the first first-person RPGs with true 3D environments, all these titles are available for only $2.99 this weekend on GOG.com.

Wing Commander is a series of 3D space combat simulators, described by the games’ creator Chris Roberts as "World War II in space.” In this series, you follow pilots of the Terran Confederation in their fight against the aggressive feline Kilrathi. Introduce yourself to the epic military space conflict in Wing Commander 1+2, play as Col. Christopher "Maverick" Blair (starred by Mark Hamill) and watch amazing FMV cut-scenes in Wing Commander 3: Heart of the Tiger, enjoy fast, action-packed, and varied space combat in the most expensive video game of its era Wing Commander: Privateer.

In addition to that, because the Wing Commander series plays so much better with a joystick, we’ve approached the guys from Logitech and they were kind enough to offer a few awesome Logitech Extreme™ 3D Pro joysticks to our users. Leave a comment below for a chance to win 1 of 3 logitech joysticks. You can also enter a similar joystick-winning contests on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+.

Become the Ultimate Commander (THE ULTIMMANDER!) and buy the complete collection of EA’s Most Famous Classic Series for only $26.91, this weekend on GOG.com.
Already have Wing Commander 4 (I got that baby when it was released here). The rest has been on my wishlist for a while; now's as good a time as any to get the rest

Playing it with a joystick sounds lovely
Can the WC games be played without a joystick?
Already have U7... the best game EVER.

Maybe I'll buy U8 since I undertand it comes with the last patch, making it playable. I need to give U8 a try again, I loved that game back then, but it was very awful to play because the glitches... any comments about the playability right now with the patch?

Mmm... Ultima underworld is a must have too...

Also... add me for the joystick!
I have so many games on GOG already (more than I dare count) and now I realize that I still don't have the Wing Commander games. It's a tough choice if I'm going to add even more games to my account this weekend.
For the first time, I have all the games in the promo already. :o These were all instabuys anyways. :)

I used to play them without joystick and all were VERY playable... but as every "flying game", playing with a joystick may be a dream, never tried.

The only joystick I had on my entire life was the one which came with the Atari 2600 ;)

Nice promo, will buy Ultima 8 .

And I hope to see here in a near future the last games of the series (Ultima IX and both Worlds of Ultima)
Do not buy Ultima VIII. It's piece of shit.

just watch this review: http://spoonyexperiment.com/2012/01/31/ultima-8-pagan/
That's quite generous of Logitech, I hope there'll be more giveaways like these in the future.

I've not played them yet, but I'm pretty sure yes - some even prefer to play games like this with mouse and keyboard. I know Freespace can be played with mouse and keyboard and I think WC games can be too. People on the WC forums discuss using mouse and keyboard for WC so I assume it is possible.

Ninja'd.

Great promo GOG! I already own a few of these games so I might pick up another one this weekend. Also thanks to Logitech for donating the joysticks :)
Oh, but of course. Im in a situation where I have no money, but I would like to continue my Ultima marathon. AND NOW, GOG just puts up all the Ultima games on sale so I could buy all the games Im missing for the price of one. Such a cocktease!

Hang on a sec, Im gonna go dig up the cushions to see if there's any spare money there.

(And yes, that Joystick would be suweet!)
Looks like I will be completing my Ultima and WC collection this weekend!
