Classic Sacred Fans – it just got better; Unreal goes to GoG

Getting the original Sacred has often proven an exercise in frustration, either you had to buy it used – or you had to download it from a service with tethered copy protection (Steam, Direct2Drive). Well, it just got better folks – GoG.com (I have written about it previously) now has Sacred Gold for download at the great price of only $9.99.

 
Get Sacred Gold for $9.99 @ GoG.com!

No copy protection, Vista & XP compatible, and fun.

What more could you ask for right?

I have to say that lately I am getting more and more impressed with the game lineup at GoG.com which, just this week, added the famous Unreal game series creator Epic Games to their collaborator list! Yep, right now you can get Unreal Gold & Unreal Tournament for 9.99 a pop!

Good Old Games (GOG.com) Opens its Doors in Public Beta

Thats right, the site that I talked about in a previous post (GoG.com) has opened its doors to the public for a Public Beta – one final step before going ‘gold’. I can’t tell you how much of a great resource this site is for the classic game enthusiast, games that set standards for years to come are represented (Namely, one of my favorites, the Fallout Series (Fallout 1, Fallout 2, and Fallout Tactics).

  What are you waiting for?! Get your butt over to GoG.com and sign up for an account!

My Impressions

I got accepted a little while ago for the closed testing part of GoG.com, I have to say that I have been impressed. The GoG.com downloader [screenshot below] is easy to use (if short on features) and the games indeed are DRM free – not to mention, the games I downloaded (Fallout 1 & 2 – a steal at a combined total of only $12.00) work perfectly on Windows Vista. The website is sleek and isn’t overwhelming with useless information, it is easy to navigate (a huge plus) and the site offers additional downloads for each game (Game Manuals, music, wallpapers, and other specialties [including, just released, the Fallout Bible).
