That was a great game, I'd love to play it again.
Now that GOG has struck a deal with LucasArts/Disney, anything is possible.

I am so holding my breath for that one.
I'm sure we'll see Full Throttle, other Indy games (infernal machine, last crusade) and anything else worthy of mention in time.

Infernal Machine (Turm von Babel) has been a problem child (technically) from the Win XP days on.
My guess is this one will be very difficult to adapt to modern systems/drivers.

Infernal Machine runs just fine on my Win 7 X64 machine, a new install disc is required though, as the original disc used a 16bit installer which is not compatible with Win 7/8.

For instructions see markusegger.at/Software/Games
They might have the same issue that has plagued this games since vista: It crashes when you use the rifle...

It has a fix though and a very weird one: Just make sure windows media player is running in the background. Weird, never heard of a fix like that but it works.
I would love to see Infernal Machine on GoG. With german language this would be an instant buy!
Infernal Machine is a pain in the bottom to get to work properly. I have the original disc version and while I have managed to get the game running, it's unplayable. It crashes every time I use certain weapons (and suggested solutions didn't help to solve that issue).

Full Throttle might be getting the Grim Fandango treatment,since Tim Schaeffer apparntley has bought the rights back from Disney. Schaffer is GOG Friendly,so it eventually it will be on GOG,but it might take a while if Scaheffer wants to upgrade it the way he did with Fandango.
I am sure Last Crusade will soon be avaialbe at GOG.

Infernal Machine is another story. It has been a pain in the butt to get working on any Windows past ME. It boils down to if GOG feels the sales will be worth the expense, since it will take more time and money to get working them most Windows games.

Darn, I'd love to play this game again. IJ is the reason I studied Ancient and Medieval History... Crazy, isn't it? xD

For those of you who have the game on disc, there is a new 64-bit installer out there that makes getting the game up and running on current systems a breeze. It automatically applies all the latest fixes, too. GoG should take note, when they eventually get around to this game.

Yes, it would be nice to see "Indiana Jones and The Infernal Machine" (1999) again.

For those who don't already know, it was a somewhat similar game to the later "Emperor's Tomb" (2003) - i.e. a third-person action / adventure in the "Tomb Raider" vein - but with more of an emphasis on puzzles. Which shouldn't be altogether surprising, because the story and design were by Hal Barwood, designer of "Fate of Atlantis". It even had the same "Indy Quotient" scoring system.

I played the N64 port, which was coded by Factor 5 (Rogue Squadron). Apparently the N64 version, released the year after the PC version, was slightly enhanced in several ways (better dynamic lighting, improved camera, additional music by Chris Hulsbeck, etc) but it would be interesting to experience the PC original nonetheless.

Off to the Community Wishlist I go to cast a vote for "Infernal Machine" :)

Played them both and the n64 was somehow a little more... interesting. Probably due to the fact that the console game was played on a kickass tv back then, while the pc version wasn't ;D
