I'm happily playing through Steam's id Super pack right now, but it hurts when Heretic II, Hexen II: Portal of Praevus (yet Hexen II is a Raven game but it's in there, weird), and Quake IV are missing for no reason. The I remembered Raven made a whole bunch of other awesome software, which includes but isn't limited to, the following:
- Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders
- Hexen: Beyond Heretic
- Hexen: Deathkings of the Dark Citadel
- Mageslayer
- Take No Prisoners
- Hexen II
- Hexen II: Portal of Praevus
- Heretic II
- Soldier of Fortune (Platinum Edition)
- Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force (Set Phasers to Frag!)
- Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast
- Soldier of Fortune II: Double Helix (Gold Edition)
- Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
- Quake IV (not really that old yet, but still good)
Not that I don't appreciate this service and all the great titles we have to choose from already, but all of that is awesome, and I hope to see them on here one fateful day! =)
I'd only be interested in the star wars ones
I'd definitely buy Elite Force. I've still got it here but not sure if it'll work, I'd much rather have it GOGified.
I'm interested in all their Heretic/Hexen titles as well as their Star Wars titles.That's about it.
I love Raven. They make excellent B-games.
Definitely want the JK games, although they do work fine on XP already, not sure about Vista.

Note of interest, I live right here in Madison, Wisconsin where the Raven Software office is just on the other side of town. I remembered back when the first Soldier of Fortune came out and there were two versions of it because the extreme violence. If you go back and play it, the gore effects are almost cartoonish today.
I've met and talked to a few guys who work at Raven. During highschool I always thought I'd be working there one day. Just need to brush up my animation and modelling skills and put together a decent portfolio. It's still going to happen.

I would totally go tell them about this site and badger them to re-release their older games on here.
And if anyone is unfamiliar with Mageslayer and Take No Prisoners, they're very fun top-down third-person shooters I found a few years ago thanks to the magic of the internet.
To describe Mageslayer: Think Gauntlet, but more sophisicated. If anyone wants to see them in action, here's a couple YouTube gameplay videos:
Mageslayer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LN22G0EVWA
Take No Prisoners: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkZ-6FXV-nY
I'd totally buy those for $5.99.

I got Heretic & Hexen again on Steam... but I'd be gladly interested in SoF, Elite Force & their JK.
No-one has mentioned Shadowcaster yet; that was a brilliant game. It's from 1993 and feels like a cross between heretic and ultima underworld, all build around the idea of shapeshifting.
Hm, I've got Heretic, Hexen + addon, Hexen II, Soldier of Fortune - Platinum, Elite force and Quake IV, but I'd like a few of the other games on that list.
Like the Star Wars games, the Hexen II addon and Soldier of Fortune II.
I still got my original copy of Mageslayer.... great game =)
I'm in for Heric, Hexen and omg (!!) Shadowcaster!
On the same genre I would kill for Strife.

That and Necrodome both need to be added to that list. If they ever got on GOG I'd probably get them for 9.99 USD.
Star Wars and Soldier of Fortune for me please. Would buy them for the sake of completionism even if I have them still lying around in the basement.
Not having to bother with game discs and compatibility issues is well worth five bucks methinks.
