woa.. they have might and magic at that site.. I've been meaning to try those games out. will it work on my computer? I'm using windows 7 and an Nvidia 9800gt is the game too old for my computer? do I need DosBox to run the game? hmm.gif (I'm going to check out the site again for the requirements.)


P.S, is there anyone on Lowyat that is selling some sort of service to purchase games from that site?

Most (not all) of the games in GOG.com has been reworked to make them executable in the latest OS, particularly Windows 7. You'll just have to check for the OS compatibility as listed in the game's page itself to get an idea if the game will run in your OS or not. smile.gif

New release: Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc

QUOTE
The last part of the original Rayman trilogy is here to complete the franchise!

Rayman returns in full 3D with breathtaking visuals and unique design in Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc. Whether you’re surfing lightbeams through psychedelic visions or just smashing your way with your powered-up mighty fists, you know you’re rocking it old-school with this French-born superhero extravaganza.

Rayman must once again save his world from peril, but the threat comes from n unusual source this time: Globox, his trusty companion. The Lord of the Dark Lums, Andre, was eaten alive by Globox. Now the Hoodlums (servants of Andre) have sworn to rescue their master in distress and unleash a maelstrom of turmoil wink.gif Our French hero, valiantly overcoming his chronic limblisness, goes on a quest to find a cure for all this chaos. The game’s admirable design, challenging platforming zones, and a myriad of power-ups all combine with the intelligent humor of this epic franchise! Also, Teensies need Rayman’s help and they will pay you back with more health and a plethora of goodies you can unlock (including mini-games, humorous animations and an homage to the Rayman series:) We also advise to use a gamepad to play Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc because our testers noted that gameplay was substantially more enjoyable with one.

Don’t miss out on this true-school 3D platforming game with a twist. Pick Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc up today for just $5.99 and round off your collection of one of the best PC platforming franchises ever made.

Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc works with the Xbox 360 pad natively.

GOG adds Stranger's Wrath, discounts The Longest Journey

user posted image

QUOTE
GOG is pointing a double-barreled crossbow of delight at us, with a deep discount on The Longest Journey and the addition of Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath. Departing from the regular Oddworld expectations, Stranger's Wrath is a hybrid of third-person action and first-person shooter, seasoned with elements of the Spaghetti Western and Oddworld touches like the "live" critter ammo. The game is available now on GOG for $9.99.

If you'd prefer a sweeping adventure, The Longest Journey is on sale for $3.99. Much like The Neverending Story, we can't vouch for the accuracy of game's title, but it does involve a very long journey, so you'll definitely get your money's worth in this classic point-and-click adventure.

2010 game on GoG? That's unfamiliar. But the game looks interesting, hoping for 60% off.

Stranger's Wrath is a pretty old XBox (360?) game actually, though it only came out recently on PC

Came out recently for PC.

Don't think it has widescreen support either.

Summer Hidden Gems: Uru: Complete Chronicles 60% off

QUOTE
As our catalog gets bigger and better every week, it's easy to lose track of some of the awesome games that we have to offer. We've been running one day "Gaming Gem" promos for a while now to highlight some classic titles that don't get the love of some of our best-known blockbusters like Baldur's Gate or Duke Nukem 3D. To celebrate summer, for the next two weeks until July 25th, we're going to run a Gaming Gem promo every day, so you can rediscover these lesser-known classics! Grab that plastic toy shovel and dig out gem after gem over the next 18 days. We think every game we're going to be offering on our Summer GOG.com Gem Extravaganza will be an excellent title, and we hope you give them all a try.

Today’s hidden gem is Uru: Complete Chronicles, the ultimate Myst. Initially designed to be played online. As all Myst series games this is more than an adventure game, it’s a real quest. You’re on an island exploring ancient ruins where everything has to be cracked and solved by your brain. It also features a rich character creator and either a first or a third person camera. No inventory means no pixel hunting and only the brilliant and outright oldschool logic puzzles are a treat for any fan of the genre. Even if you’re not a fan, this promo is the best chance to become one! The D’ni civilization created Linking Books, magical gates to other realms which are called “Ages”. Each one of them has a different “feel” and you must visit them all to fulfill the ancient prophecy before it’s too late!

This game features fully real-time rendered 3D graphics, complete with a physics engine which is creatively used in the puzzles as well.The whole musical side of Uru, and especially the ambient bits that complete the mysterious atmosphere, are a bigger treat than the superb graphics. Uru: Complete Chronicles includes Uru: Ages Beyond Myst and the expansion packs The Path of the Shell and To D'ni.

Don’t miss out on this Cyan Worlds hidden gem, get it now only for $3.99 for the next 24 hours!

Summer Hidden Gems: Dark Reign + Expansion

Today we have uncovered a hardcore RTS hidden gem wink.gif Dark Reign + Expansions is really the true, real RTS you’d want to play. A lot of innovative features were so hardcore that the modern games of today are using the pseudocasual counterparts.

First and foremost the whole setting, the new Hard Sci-Fi world that was created for Dark Reign is unique. You are the lone survivor of the Tograns, a human faction whose homeworld was devoured by a brutal civil war between the Freedom Guard and the Imperium. Now you have to be victorious in battle simulations of some of the famous battles between those two. If you prove yourself, you’ll get a chance to use an advanced probe launcher to go back in time and save the Togran’s leader and scientist Alpheus Togra, thus saving the whole civilization. The expansion pack adds a second campaign involving the Imperium, a rogue AI, and a secret research facility wink.gif

Dark Reign is full of innovations, it’s the one of the first RTS games to use fully 3D models and terrain that impact physics and damage. Fast paced action obliged the design team to drop the Fog of War system and implemented a Line of Sight that changes with the terrain elevation and the landscape. The two sides are totally heterogeneous in terms of design and units, and speaking of the units. To minimise micro-management which can be a chore with this many units and fast paced RTS action a new system was implemented, you can set the general attitude of your individual units. This regulates their rules of engagement and eagerness to fight. Top that with a simple and reliable waypoint system and you get the picture of how deep the gameplay is. All of that is driven by one of the best soundtracks in the history of RTS.

Buy it now only for $3.99 today and check out one of the best RTS games of all time!
