This looks like yet another sneaky attempt to push Tropico.

Direct 2 Drive was attempting to push it off as an RPG earlier.

Looks like one less potential friend. Still, I'll be gaming till the end.

I might buy Imperial Glory and repickup Port Royal (shame that one gog feel isn't good for windows 7)

The Commandos and Tropico games are still available in boxed-editions so I'm opting for those, but Constructor / Mob Rule / Patrician - here I come.
I ended up snagging the Tropico set as I've been interested in the series for a long time and the $5.99 pricetag is hard to argue with. Thank you GOG. :D

Roman5: hmm...Already Picked up the Commandos games and all others that I wanted during the christmas promo...

and got Tropico during the one day sale...

nothing in the catalogue that I'm really interested in

I think I'll pass this week

Though everyone should pick up Constructor and The Patrician if they havent yet :)
Ditto that, the Tropico games are great and I got the others from another promotion
I might pick up the Incoming pack... Will have to try a demo to see if it works - seems a lot of people are having control issues with the game.

Edit: Ok, tried the demos. In the first game the mouse is useless. The 360 pad is much better but the sensitivity is way too high. Strangely had raise the in game sensitivity to make it playable since all that setting controlled was the deadzone.

In the second game the mouse control works as it should, but the 30fps cap is a bit annoying.

I think I'll think some more on whether or not I want the full versions...

Excellent. Just snagged The Patrician 1&2 and Port Royale. When you guys are able to give us good deals, I respond. 40% will make me strongly consider games I otherwise wouldn't bite on.
Looks like I'll finally be getting a back up copy of some of my hard copy Commando games. I"ve been waiting for them to go on sale, so I guess no more excuses not to get them.
So, no promo for me again.
All I want I already have.
Well, I have the commandos 1+2+3 and Tropico.. I don't know about the rest, nothing really jumps out at me. Alittle risky, hmmm what do my fellow GOG users recommend?
I remember seeing those ugly faces in Mob Rule years ago in a magazine. That guy's lips scare me. :(

Should I go for Constructor... or just pick up Incoming / Expendable? Hrm.

Wow, I own this whole promo, I think I have too many GOGs...

Zchinque: Get Constructor! Do it!
Why?
It gets very low scores in the reviews.
And why Constructor and not Mob Rule?
Tell me!
I think I recall someone saying that Mob Rule is un-necessarily difficult, even to the point of being impossible. And that it loses the charm that Constructor originally had.

I've not tried either game yet. I do hope Constructor is better than Tropico and The Patrician. I just couldn't get into those. Sim City 4 was more fun.
