In Topic: Come get some free Duke Nukem 3D + GOG Christmas sale

21 December 2012 - 11:25 AM

Just wanted to mention that GOG finally managed to snag at least some of the missing EA expansions, specifically for Wing Commander 1+2, Privateer, and most importantly Alien Crossfire for Alpha Centauri - supposedly it runs fine in Crossover (maybe Wineskin, too) - so if any of you bought these games there you might want to download the new installers. If you don't have any of them they're still a measly three bucks each until January 3.

This is really interesting. The DOS ports are a collaboration with the boxer dev:

The Descent series would another good addition to their Mac roster.
What's stopping you from buying the first two? As long as you have a means to run the installation it's a snap to get running on Mac. I did it before I went back to Windows-land. I used Wineskin to install it, and then I simply dragged the games into Boxer. They both played perfectly with either keyboard or a flight stick.

Crusader: No Remorse is a fantastic isometric third-person shoot-'em-up set in an oppressive dystopian future.
Indeed, it is. I love the Crusader games, even if the controls take a little getting used to.

There are plenty of great games on that list. My personal recommendations are:
Beneath a Steel Sky
Botanicula
Crusader: No Remorse
Darwinia
Dungeon Keeper
Faster Than Light
Little Big Adventure 1&2
Machinarium
Magic Carpet
Sim City 2000
Theme Hospital
Tyrian 2000
Ultima Underworld 1&2
Wing Commander: Privateer
Worlds of Ultima 1&2
