I'm not very used to GOG yet, so I'd like to know the community's opinions on the greatest games I can find there but not on Steam.

These are the ones I could come up with so far, besides the old Might and Magic titles.

What else would you people recommend? :)

Tyrian 2000 was given away for free at one point in time and I'm 99% that it was offered by GOG. I still have the .exe on my pc

I think Neverwinter Nights deserves an enhanced version, just like Baldur's Gate! :)
But sincerely, I've never heard of Tyrian 2000... I'll check it out!

Sure! An enhanced edition for Baldur's Gate 2 is currently in development. Maybe Neverwinter Nights will be the next, you now, they're both Dungeons & Dragons titles originally from Bioware... who knows? ;D

Here's what's on my wishlist over there:
Journeyman Project 2 -- never played 2 or 3, just the first one -- unfortunately GOG doesn't have the first one
Total Annihilation -- awesome RTS, one of my all-time favorite games
Sanitarium -- I've only ever played the demo and keep hearing good things about it :(
Zork: Grand Inquisitor -- I liked Zork: Nemesis a lot ( my first Zork, and yes, I know it's way different than the others), and Z:GI has Tim Curry (I've never played it)

Edit: Just saw your wishlist image. Haven't played much of any of the older D&D RPGs, but I mean to one of these days. They aren't on my wishlist since I do own them through another site. Also, I wouldn't be surprised to see them on Steam eventually -- I believe they have database entries already, but that doesn't mean they'll definitely arrive. Good call on RCT! :) I own that one on disc already. (TA is on my wishlist despite already owning it on disc because it's just that awesome.)

I really like the look of these Journeyman Project and Zork games.
And man, it would be awesome to have some remastered versions of the old D&D games on Steam! :D

Sanitarium is the shit! If you like horror-themed point and click adventure games, you owe it to yourself to play through this. It's one of the few classic games that have aged well for me. It's well worth the ten bucks they're asking for it.

I'll probably be buying a copy from them sometime soon, because my old disk version most likely isn't compatible with Win7. :/

And I prefer GoG to Steam anyway. No DRM, tons of extras, simpler installation, better corporate culture**.

*While Baldur's Gate EE is on Steam, what I heard is that it's a buggy mess with weak extra content. It's still better to mod the original version.
*CDProjekt goes well out of their way to satisfy their customers, whether it be removing DRM from -all- versions of Witcher 2 just after release, replacing broken Collectors Edition items (I now have two* Geralt busts because of this), ensuring that old titles work on modern systems smoothly, providing in-depth modding articles, etc. Compare this to hats, trading cards, and the community market. See what I mean?

-Edit-
Outcast and Septerra Core may be worth checking out as well.

CTRL+Fed for 'Anachronox', found your comment, and smiled. That's a great game. One of my all-time favorites, as a matter of fact! :)

As far as game stores go, I like GOG and Steam about equally. Of course I'll always prefer GOG when it comes to the classics!

I agree, GOG is much better, but it sucks having FTL and Don't Starve and not being able to get trading cards for them :(

1 decade ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

But then you can consider what trading cards are for: blinging out your profile and/or getting tiny rebate on your game purchases. Considering the healthy number of non-GoG STC games available, the incentives to pick a Steam version over GoG are rather lacking imo.

Anachronox and Giants Citizen Kabuto are two games I didn't know before, which seem to be awesome!

Hm... thanks for the Baldur's Gate advice! I actually have it in my inventory, waiting to activate it when I intend to play it. Might think twice now.
And I agree with you about the better culture. I guess Steam just bought me with multiplayer servers, cloud saves achievements and such. This is kinda sad.

Krush, Kill & Destroy series, Heroes Chronicles: All chapters, Nox, Sanitarium, Disciples: Sacred Lands Gold, Betrayal at Krondor series and many, many others. And lots of are still missing on both platforms.
