Dungeon Keeper, Crusader: No Remorse and Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri, we took some time off from EA releases, but promised to bring back more great titles from this publisher in late summer. The time has come to say farewell to the summer and take you all gamers back to the Old School with the release of more EA classic games. Be sure to check back this Thursday to see for yourself what the next batch of classic games from Electronic Arts will be!

I'm sure it isn't Syndicate, based on what I was reading during the first wave of EA titles...

That said, if it is Syndicate, I'll be making a purchase on Thursday.

I would love to see more Wing Commander including Privateer 2!

I would almost be as happy to see some Ultima. 7 and 7 part two in particular.

I hope Wasteland is one of the releases!

Ultima 1-9 sure would be nice

Ultima! Ultima! Ultima!

Like one or two others here, I got my hands on the Ultima Collection when that came out (in the Windows 98 era!). Unfortunately, they did a poor job of making all of those games run on modern computers--and the computers they made the Ultima Collection for are FAR from modern now! So it would be fantastic to see EA and the GOG team bring this classic series of games into the modern era.

P.S. Also the Adventure Construction Set please. :)

Any epic hint drops GOG?

I'm pulling for Dungeon Keeper 2 to be honest.

The entire Wing Commander series! As others have said: including expansions. For those that wonder, that means ALL of the following:

Wing Commander
Wing Commander - The Secret Missions
Wing Commander - Secret Missions 2: Crusade
Wing Commander II: Vengeange of the Kilrathi
Wing Commander II - Special Operations 1
Wing Commander II - Special Operations 2
Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger
Wing Commander IV: The Price of Freedom
Wing Commander: Prophecy - Gold Edition

That would do it for me. Now, if they wish to also make available Armada and Academy, along with Righteous Fire for Privateer and Privateer 2: The Darkening, I may never leave my house again.

Heck, and all the Ultimas.

And...

misslilo: Hmm, the banner for the announcement actually reminds of Bladerunner!

Hope it's that one - an insta buy for me even though I already own 3 different versions of it along with 2 different movie versions, lol
so tell me good sir how is the game?

and gah. i kinda need to see Blade runner again. saw it ages ago on 15inch tv. remember the snake lady and that's it.
and i think there was a bit of rain.

I'm hoping for something obscure, like Origin's Bio-Forge. Now that EA has destroyed Origin's name by using it for their unnecessary digital store, it would be nice to remind people that they were actually a pretty great PC developer....before EA bought them out.

The EA of the mid-to-late 90's was pretty bad. The Activision of now easily crushes them though, in terms of "most wretched publisher alive".

ddmuse: Not interested in buying any EA titles on GOG until expansions are included with the games.

no expansions = no interest in EA on GOG

Alien Crossfire or bust.

Get it, GOG?
I'm with you. After the first batch of EA games I am at this point not at all excited over the next batch making its debut on Thursday.

Unfortunatley, GOG has so far really over-hyped this whoe EA deal. They need to realease the games with all of the expansions or no sale for me.
