Shogun: Total War
I suspect the reason they keep it unavailable is because Steam probably has an exclusive. I don't know that, but it makes sense. The entire Total War franchise is, as a group, a pretty attractive draw for Steam...
+1
Would love to see this game on GOG. I've been really wanting to play this game again, but won't go to Steam. Would definitely buy on GOG!
Seriously if the owner keep refusing to put their IP here I wonder if we can buy the license of this game with kickstarter of gofundme. It was a two decades old game, what do they want, $30 price tag?
I hold very little hope that the owners of the TW franchise would ever let their (even 2 decade old) games go on this website DRM free. I don't see why they wouldn't as current STEAM players of S:TW are practically zero. I'd love to be able to get a copy that actually works with Windows 10. I have three hard copies, one of them unopened and still shrink wrapped (have even more copies of Return To Castle Wolfenstein for some reason...) yet I can't play Shogun for the last three years unless I fire up a retro rig. Obviously, that is a lot of hard work to play one title.
Really hope to see these games (Shogun: Total War and Total War: Shogun 2) on Gog because Steam is such a PIA...
Sometimes I'm able to download games, sometimes not at all, I managed to get Shosgun 2 installed, then it crashes when loading any and every battle... Spent tons of time to research how to fix this issues and nada, I give up (and I do not understand why it worked perfectly until 2 years ago... and now, nothing).
Never had an issue with GoG instead.
I should point out that the PC I'm using is a clean XP install without any of the updates that causes the game to have problems, I put this together for the purpose of running older programs, last time I tried it on an old XP (one that wasn't a clean install) it would not install at all.
Still have the original bought within days of release and it still runs on my old XP (originally 98) but would really like to have a DRM free version, played it to death in the day and it really is the best game Total War produced and the one I think truest to its original concept, I also bought the Gold version later but it proved to be effectively unplayable unless you autofought every battle.
Still waiting for Shogun: Total War … hopefully :)
It does seem strange that such a popular title hasn't been taken on by GOG. I can understand why it wasn't added to the collection earlier, because it would play on most machines until recently.
Unfortunately, that is no longer the case. The original Shogun will play on virtually NO modern machines (AFAIK it won't even play on WIN 8,1 and portings for OSX never ran (likewise Rome, even Apple's own version won't run on most machines).
I'm a recent convert to GOG, but an old player. Please make an old guy's day and put Shogun et al up on here.

Another game I paid good money for that sits on the shelf unplayed due to Microsoft. I would gladly pay again to GOG to get it back.
I would love to have ANY of the games in the Total War series, but only from GOG.
please please please please please please please please please please
One very sad day, Shogun: Total War simply stopped working on my Win 7 machine. I hit the internet trying to find a cure, but no love. I actually upgraded to Win 10, JUST hoping that this might resolve this problem, with equally heartbreaking results. Please, Good Old Games, you're my only hope.
Please reales this also as in German Language thx, please gog please ! i hate steam they put old games on there store (like fallout) but without any patch to play on new win 10 ect. i hope u guys listen to us thx gog!
Yes please, my favorite Total War game!
Please, pretty please!
I would definitely buy it as even the version on steam dose not work :(
Can we not all just agree to at least vote on this one: <a href="http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/total_war_series?" class="light_un" target="_blank">www.gog.com/wishlist/games/total_war_series?</a> If you have, or will, vote on the other Total War series of games, vote on this one too, please! I see at least one (and often, more than one) entry for each of the titles in this series, and it would be nice to consolidate support behind this one envelope. Just do a quick search on "Total War" here, to see what I mean.
Yes please!
Just been trying to find this as I may have lost our disc copy of the total war:eras colletion (shogun 1, medieval & rome).
Would be so awesome if the the total war series came to GOG.com :D
It's available on GamersGate, but i'd prefer to get it here. GOG is like my ghetto for old games.
I have a XP machine purely for this game. I would gladly purchase this!!
I've never played this game but would love to if it was ever patched for win 8 and sold here
I miss shogun one , and I would by if Available.
Just a note to say I would gladly purchase this if made available.
Looking forward to this one
So much this!
This and the first Medieval Total War are my favourite strategy games. I'd happily play these and nothing else. Unfortunately neither work on Windows 8. Please make it happen!
Would love this and the original Medieval & Rome : Total war games. Instabuy!
I post here again, this game is first total war game and when first came out, I played this game for 3 years.. I will never forget this game ever.
I will buy too, if release or make possible for win 7 .. Please make for us... I will buy...
I love this game! pure awesome battles and music. Please bring this game to GoG! Thank you!
Just saw it on Gamsstop but don't like the store at all so didn't spend the $5 that they asked... I rather wait to add it to my collection on GOG. Can't wait to get all shogun again...
2 of my friends and i are gonna buy it if u release it from here a soon as possible
one of the best games ever made and the best of the total war series. I would love to be able to play it again without insta-crashes off the disc
I never played this series but it caught my attention recently. I would buy this if it released here.
best Total War game
I have the retail Gold Edition but really hate putting in the disc to play. It's already scratched beyond recognition and a DRM-free version would certainly be a life saver. I already have the Shogun 2 but I doubt that my celeron powered laptop (yes. I'm still using that) would able to run it. And hopefully the crashing bug should be resolved for the GoG version. I discovered that I have to remove a lot of mp3 files (seem to incompatible with the OS) from the game folder to play it without crashing.
I loved how this one could be completed relatively quickly. Takeda + Heavy Cavaly = Good times. ^_^

I never got to play the warlords expansion of this, but Shogun is one of my favorite classic games.
All Total War games fit perfectly here because I wish to play these games very badly and don't because of the stupid DRM that mandates that I need a Steam account and active internet connection.
