Don't worry too much about the stamp bug. I am sure that if it breaks or something, that GOG will make just make the giveaway available to everyone.

That's how awesome GOG is...

One day I'm going to cave and get that "The Ultimate D&D Collection" for the convience of just downloading rather than installing by disk. I always stumbled as I've already paid for physical BG1, BG2 x2 (CD, then DVD version), IWD 1, IWD2, PST and NWN 1. (I have bought NWN2 & ToEE on GOG).

Maybe when it comes around again if they do a last day "its all the bundles, go on you know you want to" sale.

I had the same problem with Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.
But I caved when the disk had an error and I wanted to play, so instead of reinstalling from disk bought it and installed from GOG.

Riddick: is it better than expected, but still average, or is it really a great game that I shouldn't miss?

How is that "Two Worlds" game?

I played it years ago on console (the first Riddick - forgot the title, but not the edition GoG sells) and it was fantastic. Highly story based FPS with some really interesting mechanics (stealth, hand to hand combat) in a great environment that at the time was gorgeous.

It's certainly not an average game. I imagine it probably holds up well too.

Riddick sabotages some of it's own mechanics, such as stealth where enemies can see you instantly from a mile away, but it's not a bad shooter. I reckon it's worth a playthrough at that price, especially as it's two games in one. Though the Butcher Bay content is definitely a load better than Dark Athena.

Kingdom Rush is up next. I highly recommend this one. Started life as a flash game, but the standalone version is very nicely polished and a lot of fun, even if you're twitch-deficient like me. Love this game.

Yes forgot to mention this. By the latemidgame to endgame it is much more of a shooter. Still a pretty shooter and a fun one at that. But it does phase out some of the opening's interesting gameplay. Also thanks ReynardFox you reminded me - it is Butcher's Bay I'm talking about here, not Dark Athena.

IronArcturus: How is that "Two Worlds" game?
Very hard at the start. Frustrating hard. After you get a few levels and slam back bunches of potions it's a lot of fun. A huge Diablo-like variety of loot. So if you like collecting gear and finding new stuff this game would be great for you. If I remember correctly you can build out your character as a jack of all trades. So you can be decent with a sword and still fling spells, that kind of thing.

Imagine playing Diablo 2, but in 3rd person. Combat is less strategic than say a Risen but still gives you a few options. In a way it's easier to get into but still keeps things interesting. I remember the world being pretty big too.

I liked Two Worlds better than Two Worlds 2, mainly because I loved the unending flow of neat loot in the first game.

Thanks to both, +1
I'll think about it then.

Two World and Risen series, instead, have a ton of bad reviews, so I always skipped them.

Atleast the first Risen is really good in my opinion. If you really liked the Gothic series you will definitly love Risen 1.

I hope that GOG realizes one day that the platformer is a type of action game.

I haven't played the newer Athena version, but I really enjoyed Butcher Bay, which is part of Athena. I think it's one of the best movie to game translations done. It's still a very good game without the movie tie-in. If you enjoyed the game, it's a nice bonus that the original actors did the voices for their characters.
