More DRM-Free Classic Star Wars PC Games Arrive on GOG

Dark Forces 2 is the best of the Jedi Knight series.

meh. just remake these games entirely!

Fantastic. Let's hope they bring Shadows of the Empire next.

Immediately bought Rebellion and Battlefront II... I have about 30% of GOG's library at this point; I'm wondering when that "shelf" interface is going to crash my browser. :)

And BTW, a *LOT* of those GOG ports work perfectly fine on Android under DOSbox Turbo... Old RPGs & strategy games on long flights FTW!

If only other services could follow GOG's example. Unfortunately, the suits aren't putting their games on the service, because they're afraid in their fortress without DRM.

It's pretty amazing how well most of the classic SW games have aged. I never played X-Wing or Rebellion back in the day and all of a sudden I'm playing them more than multi-gig games like Far Cry 4.

One of my fondest memories in my gaming life was putting together the Rebel fleet for the assault on Courascant in Rebellion. Dozens and dozens of individually named ships, countless fighters, all being led by Admiral Solo on a Bulwark Battlecruiser named the Indiana Jones (I was young). What made it more epic was that the main Imp fleet was there, with the Emperor on the flagship. Even though the graphics were pretty crap it was a hell of a fight, ships going up in pixel flames, status reports rolling in, yelling when Commander Lando's Mon Cal blew up. And while this was going on I was humming the SW soundtrack and getting really into it. Good times.

Oh hell I'm going to pick it up from GOG. I wonder if theres mod support for it....

Rebellion for the win! I don't know about that Empire at War thing. It's something of a sequel to Rebellion and it sounds like there are a bunch of good mods. Well, Rebellion is first.

Wow. GoG is really hitting the spot with these releases. I've been hoping for some Dark Forces II love on new OSes for a good while now. Hopefully it will be the complete JK and MotS.

Just need Shadows of the Empire now and I'll be rather content with modern support of old Star Wars games. They've nearly covered them all now.

While you're there you can also get the remastered Grim Fandango DRM Free.

good old gems...

While I'm happy with my working N64 copy of Rogue Squadron, glad to see it on a DD service. But I wonder about Rogue Leader and Rebel Strike (which were both GameCube exclusive and never released on PC unlike the first game).

oohhhh it was "DRM-FREE" ok I read it wrong, my bad (close window)

Aw look the vocal minority of people who still hate Steam after 12 years is out and about acting like Valve is the devil. Yea, they've done more for DRM than anyone ever, and its irrelevant because Steam is better than the old days of installed games with no unified interface, achievements, community, launcher, patching, mods, or support of any kind.

Mention GameSpy Arcade or Mplayer. Please do it, one of you morons is going to.

I'm sure you'll be happy "owning" your disc when it becomes literally unplayable in the future without some sort of support.

Wait, waht? Rogue Squadron 3D on PC? Sign my ass up.

I played XvT so much when I was younger.

hmm Empire at War gold edition.

I cannot throw my money at the monitor fast enough!!!

Also, Star Wars: Rebellion was brutally tough for it's time and that turned a lot of people off. But once you really got deep into it, it was a great strategy game.

Whoever was able to pull this coup off at GoG deserves a raise and promotion!

Cool. The more the merrier. I still can't believe Doom isn't GOG, though. Or any of id's games prior to Rage for that matter. All of them had their DRM removed within the patches, so it would only make sense.

Rebel Assault 1 and 2 please.

I like DRM if it leads to a solidified gaming experience on PC. Steam.

As opposed to a mess of where your games end up.

This is great! Personally, I own most of these games already, so these sales do nothing for me, but it is nice to see both classic Star Wars games being released and GOG increasing its library. Republic Commando specifically is an extremely underrated game.

Republic commando? Oh yeah! Steam? get fastened with a screw!

4th wave, Star Wars: Force Commander

GOG > Steam, once again. DRM free gaming needs to be supported whenever possible.

Fatty, on the other hand, can go choke on some Steam cooked spare ribs

Rogue Squadron, now that's what I'm talking about baby. Wish Nintendo would make a new Rogue Squadron for Wii U or 3DS game.

So glad to see these classics being available again!

Hell yeah, Rogue Squadron!
