Brought to you by GOG.com

<span class="bold">Pacific General</span> and <span class="bold">Fantasy General</span>, the accessible, Panzer-like grand strategy classics, are available now DRM-free on GOG.com!

<span class="bold">Pacific General</span>, available for Windows, is a spiritual sequel from the studio behind the acclaimed Panzer General series - an improvement over the classic, but one that retains the same feel and concepts as its inspiration. Once more we return to the overhead battlefields of World War II in a series of quick-play scenarios and full-blown campaigns: everything from Pearl Harbor to hypothetical invasion scenarios is here, all packaged in a relatively newbie-friendly grand-strategy package. <span class="bold">Fantasy General</span> takes that same experience and sets it in a fantasy universe. This one's for you if you're a fan of large-scale hex-based battlefields and steampunk-infused fantasy. Fantasy General is available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
<span class="bold">Pacific General</span> and <span class="bold">Fantasy General</span> are being published by GOG.com. We are happy to release these titles not on behalf of another party, but by acting as the sole publisher for the very first time!



Unleash your inner armchair general with <span class="bold">Pacific General</span> and <span class="bold">Fantasy General</span>, available now, DRM-free on GOG.com!

It belongs to Sony.

Lemmings 3D
I remember the good old days of MSDOS and trying to get that game to even run on my AMD 80386 in 4MB of RAM. I had enough RAM for what the game said was required, but due to the way memory was used in DOS with drivers and whatnot the game was very very tight and I had to screw around with QEMM for *hours* to eventually find the right combination to free up another few kilobytes of RAM in one of the memory regions in order for the game to be happy. That's one thing I totally do not miss at all in any way shape or form about PC gaming from the DOS days, was having to edit AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS and fiddle around with memory manager memory layout optimization. Definitely an eyesore from the past, LOL

Would love to see this game show up on GOG.com though. I'm not sure if I ever played any of the other lemmings games or not, but I know they were an incredibly popular series almost like Tetris back in their heyday.

Congrats! Here, some random game I wish you could look into:

Impossible Creatures

I think Sony Computer Entertainment own the rights to Lemmings so unless a PS4 port is made it seems unlikely.

does this mean anything in particular for the gold box games? or is that more trouble than it's worth, given that they're now related to hasboro and that's just scary territory?

Since they're not doing anything with the IP and their primary focus in PlayStation, do you think they'd let GOG publish the PC games?
Posted May 05, 2015
Loving all the NOLF posts.

The games do have about 15,000 votes for each (give or take) so it does have the demand. Of course it comes down to how sticky the red tape is.

I don't know. They are sitting on other Psygnosis games, not doing anything with them.

viperfdl: GOG now publishing games brings new options to deal with with steam:

GOG: "We have Panzer + Fantasie General."
Valve: "We know."
GOG: "You want it?"
Valve: "Yes of course!"
GOG: "How about you bring Halflife 1 + Addons DRM-free to GOG.com and we release Panzer General series on steam?"
Valve: "Deal!"
That would be the best. :)

Hope it will go this way. The more options the better for everyone.
