Eradicator

ReportFraud.ftc.gov I have already submitted a report to the Federal Trade Commission - detailing the fraudulent bait and switch sales activities of Digital Eclipse and Atari on the GOG storefront. This practice is considered unethical and is illegal in many jurisdictions due to its deceptive nature. The FTC's Consumer Sentinel database, is available to federal, state, and local law enforcement across the country. This is concerning Atari and their developer, Digital Eclipse's year-long delayed release of the DLC for 'Atari 50'. Atari purposefully withheld this DLC - for a entire year - from the GOG storefront, under the pretence of 'technical difficulties'. Atari and Digital Eclipse did this, knowing GOG users / owners of the base game 'Atari 50', would double dip on Steam. Timeline of Atari 50 DLC GOG release: - Sept 25 - Digital Eclipse stated on their YouTube trailer video for DLC1 that “something went wrong” [with the GOG DLC failing to release, along with the main platforms] and that they were trying to “fix" it. - Oct 4 - Atari' stated response to a GOG customer, posted on the ‘Atari 50' forum, claimed their “team” were “actively working on the issue” and were trying to “resolve” it. - Nov 09 - Atari, on X - "We are currently working on bringing the DLC to GOG. If we are able to, it will be available early 2025" - Jan 23 - Digital Eclipse / Atari's 'cancellation' of the DLC on Discord - "The studio's proprietary development tools don't allow for this content to be efficiently re-platformed to the VCS and GOG platforms". - April - Atari’s email response: “... Unfortunately, we won’t be able to provide a Steam key, as your purchase was made through GOG…” The DLC has now appeared on the GOG store - completely unannounced - conveniently, in time for the Namco Legendary Pack. GOG users' purchases: 2x base games of 'Atari 50' + 4x DLC (Steam + GOG). ------------------------------ GOG user posts on the ‘Atari 50’ forums: Sept 27 - “Well, I got tired of waiting. So, I got a cheap key for Steam and got the DLC there.” Oct 01 - “following this post.. waiting for it as well.. that $4 key for steam is enticing” Oct - “Any news? Just bought Atari50 on Gog and didn't realize that it wasn't the full game but can't find where the DLCs are. Very tempted to attempt a gog refund.” Nov 5 - "Doesn’t look too good. On the Atari and Digital Eclipse websites it doesn’t mention Atari 50 available on GOG at all. I wonder if it’s some kind of business shenanigans going on." Nov 7: “Tomorrow is it. If they don't have the DLC Updates here, looks like I'm re-buying the game from Steam come next month” Nov 08 - “Looks like I'm uninstalling my Gog purchase of it and buying it from Steam instead” Nov 08 - “At this point, as soon as I see a copy that includes both DLC on either TPB or 1337x, I'm going to just obtain it there, and save money on the DLC guilt free.” Nov 09 - Atari, on X - "We are currently working on bringing the DLC to GOG. If we are able to, it will be available early 2025" Nov 09 - “How long ago did you buy it? I just sent a request to support to either explain why the DCL is not available yet and tell me when it will be or refund the game so I can go repurchase on Steam.” Nov 09 - “Still I'd say pirating is better then buying the game and dlcs on steam or another drmed storefront as if one does it'd kinda reward the bad behavior of the devs/publishers in general” Nov 20 - “I just uninstalled it and am getting the Steam version after I get paid next week. I'm aware I'll be paying full price, plus more for the DLC, but it's worth it” Jan 22 - "They said we'd get it early this year if they can. I'm not sure if that means if they can ever or if they can "early." Who knows?" Feb 17 - “I gave up and got a cheap Steam key. I'm done with GoG unless it's an old game Steam doesn't have.” Sept 08 - "I find it hilarious that the development tools SUDDENLY allow them to push out DLCs... I wonder how many months of complaints hit the Atari offices..." Sept 08 - "And to think I had bought it again on Steam just a month ago..."

I played and finished all famous fps from 90's but i missed this one. This surpisly good game ! Don't go away from him :)

I currently own this game on Steam and...on CD-ROM! I own this copy since I was 6-8 years old, and man does it still hold up today. You play as 1 of 3 (1 unlockable) character that must go through a giant citadel in order to destroy the last boss and prevent a cataclysmic event. Nothing too innovative here in term of story. Where it shines the most is the creepy atmosphere, the ton of guns with special functions and the enemies that can pose a threat to you, not to mention the level design. It's quite long too.

This game is very cool and different enough in every way to be in it's own realm. Very puzzle rich maybe to a point of being frustrating, but still good level design. The Gog version works good and looks like includes an editor now but personally that is not important for this type of game. The depth and atmo and interactivity is well beyond Duke3d or anything up to maybe quake.

A forgotten relic of FPS greatness. Eradicator is full on co-op and has some of the most ridiculous weapons in 90s shooters. The remote control car bomb is just beautiful!
