Good Old Games

CD release of Thief? I don't because I want all of my PC games to be digital only.

And fuck those lawyers, just fucking give us a version of SS2 that works well with modern systems, I'll stab someone if I have to to make it happen.

CD release of System Shock 2!

I don't have that either as it seems to have been lost at some point when I was moving and putting things into storage. :(

The System Shock situation is really screwed up. http://www.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/pos...-system-shock/

But even if EA wanted to publish another System Shock, the company didn't have the rights to do so. Back when the original game was made, producer Warren Spector negotiated a deal in which EA got the trademark to the series, while the developers at Looking Glass Studios kept the rights. To create another System Shock game, you need both. "My thinking was it would force us to be married so it never would be that either party should be able to say we own that, we’re making the next game, screw you," Spector told the San Jose Mercury News last November.

In hindsight, the deal only jeopardized System Shock’s future. Looking Glass Studios closed in 2000, a year after System Shock 2's release, and the copyright to the series went into the hands of an insurance company. That left EA with only the System Shock name, but no actual development rights.

GOG is such a fucking troll site.

Publisher hint: The company decided to make PC games in 1982, but its beginnings date several years back

I can think of no less than THREE companies that fit this bill. (Square-)Enix, LucasArts, and... Konami.

Now it says "Be the best cyberpunk sleuth."

It'd be neat if that was Snatcher, but it's probably Omikron. :/

Turns out it's Deus Ex. Square-Enix is putting out games on GOG. Here's hoping for the three Thief games.

I'm really ill that one of them wasn't Thief.

It's really stupid that of all the possibilities they could release, they go with two games that have been readily available on steam forever.

Fuck yeah, Thief Gold: http://www.gog.com/en/news/new_release_thief_gold
