90% off for Interplay completionists, 60% off individual games + 60/80% off four awesome Star Trek titles!



We've all been there. Taken by our primordial urge to complete a collection of beloved items, we either venture to track them down one by one, striking at the most opportune moment, or to keep a secret fund handy so that we can snatch them all in one fell swoop! The <span class="bold">Interplay Completionist Week</span> caters to both, putting a nice 60% discount on all individual Interplay games and rewarding completionists with a hefty 90% one. At the same time, <span class="bold">four Star Trek games</span> by Interplay are orbiting the sale, going for 80% off when assimilated as a unit.

There are a lot of slimy superheroes out there, but no one comes close to Earthworm Jim, the super-strong, super-agile, super-pink punisher of villainous oddities that can action/platform his way out of any sticky situation.

Modern first-person RPGs would not be the same without Stonekeep, this one-of-a-kind mix of deep role-playing mechanics, intriguing lore, daring visual design, and hardcore sensibilities.

Set your phasers to...Pick Up! Star Trek™: 25th Anniversary invited us to a universe of point'n'click adventures full of tough moral choices, varied outcomes, and interstellar travels that delighted series' fans and non-believers alike.



And thus begins the <span class="bold">Interplay Completionist Week</span>! It's the perfect time to complete your collection by making use of the gigantic 90% discount, or to get started on it by picking up some awesome titles like Freespace 2, MDK 1+2, Messiah, or Lionheart for 60% off!
The promo will last until May 29, 9:59 AM UTC.
I didn't see that it was said before, but... While not technically a Star Trek game, FTL: Advanced Edition is the best Star Trek game out there. Watch for a sale on that and enjoy.

gamesfreak64: You got all of these? nice, i got the non 3d games and non platform games a long while ago.
Now i am waiting for more point and click games to arrive, i already have all wadjet eye games en kathy rain aswell.
What do you mean with 3d games? Are any of the game use these two color glasses or similar?
avatar
gamesfreak64: i also read that some old games have been removed again from the store.

Anyway, i fear that in a few years the publishers might withdraw all good old games , which would leave us with the average or very weak new games (2012- till now),

SpiderFighter: Don't be discouraged. While it's true that some games have been removed from GOG, we're talking along the lines of far less than 1%, and it's important to note a couple of things: 1) most of those games that have been removed have eventually returned (in 7 years, only 28 games still remain off-site), and 2) even once removed, those games remain in your library forever (although GOG might not continue to support them, they do (in my experience) try to address specific problems).

To see a full list, check out List of games removed from GOG.
To see proof that games remain in your library, here are mine, screencapped today.
yes i remember, i bought the old duke nukems (just for nostalgia i wont play them) when i read the news, and the duke's are still in on my shelf.
Syberia 1+2 seems to be 'gone' from gamersgate i bought the games just for fun at a sale, now i cant download them any longer, it was a weird story that the dev or publisher 'removed' it from GG or something like that, and the steam versions (drm) would still be available, but i dont want steam versions.

Anyway i bought them cheap , and i had them here on gog long before i got them at GG, so i dont care :D but still it is nasty to see drm free games at GG 'disapear' because drm free is not the 'future anymore' or a dumb story like that.
Imho there are way to much steam games on GG, the started so good being mainly drm free, but now, it looks like they are taken by the darkforce of steam.

old topic:
http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1743922

i agree with one user that said: he is right, most games are same priced as on steam, and imho even if a game would be cheaper, that still leaves the question why the heck would you buy games elsewhere then at Steam?
You have to enter the key at : ad a game.... so much extra work, while buying directly from steam is click and pay and voila all things are set and done.
So imho GG should revert to DRM free again, leave steam as it is..... and be great once again, cause there are to much drm sites already and the number of DRM free is very little, as far as i know GOG is the only one (and the best ofcourse)

I don't get the use of buying Steam only games somewhere else. Unless it's cheaper of course. I looked at Magicka on that site and it's the same price. Wouldn't buying it on Steam itself be faster/easier?

Dotemu still sells DRM-free games on their shop. At least for now.

Already own here on GOG the 15 titles in the sale that I care about - the others still don't sway me. So looks like I will take a pass..

Don't have any of those 4 trek titles, so will give them a good once-over...
90% sale?! That's rare for GOG. I even checked the post to see if this was an Interplay farewell.
Only picked up the other two non-adventure Star Trek games. I'm good. ;)

i know, the problem is only the most big sites use prepaid .... humble doesnt have prepaid because they seem to give to charity, so its logical cause prepaid wont allow to give a number of cash to these charities, i found may sites with drm free old games, but none have paysafe prepaid card support.
Thats why i joined GG because they have drm free casual games, although the drm free games dont seem to be getting more games, its been a long time since they received new drm free games, but it thing GG doesnt really care for drm free like they used to, they have gazillions of steam games and thats a little bit sad cause Steam sells these so why bother to have 100's of sites all selling steam games when they need to be activated on steam?
Imho steam games should be on steam, you click you buy and pay and download thats it, with other sites you have to ' add game and type or paste the given key, thats too much hassle, steam should be at steam.

Not to get too sidetracked, but it's about market control, which is about money and, sadly, this is why I started off my first couple of years collecting 3/4 (then) of GOGs catalog and then could deny no longer that many of the older games I wanted to try were on Steam. My account there is barely two years old, and yet I've amassed over 1300 games, most of which I'll probably never play. The Steam experience is about collectability (games, cards, achievements, friends, discussion groups, badges) and, with the extremely rare exception of a couple of GOG redeems on Groupees, bundle purchases are where most of my collection come from; nearly all games redeem on Steam, many of them are older games, many of them are *also* DRM-Free...but NONE of them are redeemable on GOG, and that's a problem. With the opening up of the Greenlight process, Steam cemented themselves as the mass-market platform.

It honestly saddens me; this is my home. But, to put it in early1990s PC-War terms: Steam is IBM, and GOG is Apple. Less used, perhaps, but more greatly respected. That helps cheer me up a bit. :)

Come on, nobody played the Star Trek Starfleet games?
Owned only 7 of the games in this promo before, but I've decided to buy the whole remaining shebang at 90% after passing on umpteen Interplay promos before. Mostly because I've given up on ever seeing more than a 60% standalone discount on Interplay titles, and at 60% the 6 games I'm primarily interested in are only a couple of bucks cheaper than if I take the other 21 games as well... I'm sure I'll find something good in that lot to make the extra $2 worthwhile in the end.
Same thing happened to me, a buck and a half pricier than only getting the 6 games I wanted. Strange Interplay doesn't want to be in Gog's major sales events but out of nowhere do great sales such as this one. Also the recent removal of the Duke Nukem games from 3DRealms made the deal.
