Hey, there ya GO EA, up another Notch for me as a good Dev ^^ *buys Sungeon Keeper* Been waiting for this for years :P I Hope dungeon keeper 2 gets on there aswell, aswell as crusader no regret (can see Remorse will be)
System Shock and Syndicate? Unfortunately, they are not part of the deal that took GOG and EA 12 months to complete due to "licensing reasons."Think I'll get Magic Carpet, I remember having it on the Saturn :P

Dead Space started off as System Shock 3 when they went in making it, IIRC - it kind of diverged at some point and went on its own path.I found system shock better scarier too bad it never sold well ..

Looks like Ultima Underworld is on the backlog. Can never turn down an offer for 2 amazing RPGs at $6.
[QUOTE="gameofthering"]I've never played those games before. Too bad system shock 1 and 2 are so rare now .. More like "too bad SS2 doesn't work on a modern OS". The last OS it worked on was XP, and that was only with several fan made patches and the use of compatibility mode. I'd imagine SS1 is in a similar state, although I've never tried to install it so I can't comment on it. I don't understand why EA just doesn't sell the damn game anymore. The only way we'll ever be able to play it now is if it gets a re-release with a version updated to be compatible with modern hardware and OS's.[QUOTE="killzonexbox"] System Shock and Syndicate?

It does work actually, I forgot the website but you can install an updated fan patch (or was it a tool?) and it will work on Win7. That's how I did it... but still I would like to have a digital copy of the game since my CD copy of it isn't in a good condition :/gameguy6700
I bought Ultima Underworld last night. Two of my favourite games of all time, been waiting for GOG to get them for a long time.
Dungeon Keeper will also be bought quite soon.
now we need activision classic ..This is good news.

GOG.com should have added the Westwood Classic games as well because the games that arebeing sold to GOG.com and really uninteresting.BASARAisAwesomeDungeon Keeper and Alpha Centauri are uninteresting? Oh, you're a kidder.

This might be a good start: http://www.systemshock.org/index.php?topic=392.0
Played through the game with that tool not long ago, amazing game. I'm pretty sure that the guys at GoG work very hard on getting the ability to release the game. They have to be aware of the amount of people still waiting for a rerelease.
