The ongoing "AWESOME DEAL AT GOG!" Thread

^that sounds like where I'm at. PC, Android, Xbox One. That's it.

It's just easier because there's only so much time and money to go around. I'm totally cool since the 3rd just doing 4+ hours on a Fri/Sat night on Zelda and 2 hours otherwise and I don't feel the worse for it. Actually better as I'm more focused much like a kid on their allowance who has to just keep slugging away at it.

Preorder for Full Throttle is up at a discount:

Easily in the top 5 Point and Click Adventure games of all time, with the best soundtrack.

Love that game. I got my copy while in England, for the low, low price of one pound sterling (around $1.50 at the time). It also came with The Dig.

The Dig is a phenomenal game, soso book. I would buy a The Dig Remaster if they ever made it. Even with the turtle puzzle.

I have the book, too. I actually re-read it a couple of years ago. It's not bad, at any rate!

Man I'm glad to see Full Throttle coming to GOG, such an underappreciated adventure. I think it's Tim Schafer's best game. I'll gladly replay it, and I hope this time Full Throttle gets the attention it always deserved.

Heh, that reminds me of my Korean copy of Metal Slug 4 and 5 for the PC. Cost me like $1.

Thinking of England... anything I should be considering grabbing while the exchange rates are so good?

GOG Galaxy is adding cloud saves for many games, including those who have never had cloud saves like Planescape Torment:

We've also went through the GOG Galaxy community wishlist and packed Update 1.2 with some of the most-requested features, including bandwidth limiting and scheduling, FPS counter, screenshot capturing, a sleek in-game overlay, achievement rarity, desktop and in-game notifications system, a new chat, and more!

One step close to replacing Steam.

I think that this is a great addition. Old GOG games are ones I'll most often play on an (older) laptop, so being able to easily share saves between my PC is great.
