[QUOTE]Star Wars: X-wing alliance (digital debut)[/QUOTE]
DEAR GOD ALMIGHTY YES
Time to re-download the XWA upgrade pack and play the best star wars space sim
[QUOTE=Grenadiac;46973295]does kotor 2 work on windows 8 yet[/QUOTE]
It's listed in the system requirements, so most likely yes

I Run Mine On Windows 8 it works but you are out of luck if you have a graphics card newer than 2007 which all of us have

I still have a working 8800 Ultra, so I mean, I can play it. I just really can't justify the energy profile to play Kotor 2.
No racer no buy
[QUOTE=Doritos-pope;46973281]Star Wars: X-wing alliance[/QUOTE]
Oh my, exactly $9.99 flew out of my wallet and right into my monitor.
Still no Outlaws?
Maybe that will get added soon.
Got on, bought Battlefront II in fifteen seconds, never looking back.
Woo, Star wars: Battlegrounds, haven't played that in years!
[QUOTE=proch;46973530]No racer no buy[/QUOTE]
That game would need some serious work to get running on modern systems, as awesome as it would be.
[QUOTE=GeneralGenoci;46973439]I Run Mine On Windows 8 it works but you are out of luck if you have a graphics card newer than 2007 which all of us have[/QUOTE]
huh? I'm currently replaying kotor 2 using a GTX 970
Hopefully Rogue Squadron is added soon... It's such a hassle to get it running properly nowadays, and there are camera bugs even if you do.
Galactic Battlegrounds has persuaded me to sign up for GoG.

Bought it and currently playing with a friend over Gameranger. So great.
Waiting for Shadows of the Empire and racer.
i swear to christ these sales literally always start when i'm saving cash for pressing real life matters.
another day, galactic battlegrounds.
And I might buy the kotor games for a third time.
omg YES Galactic Battlegrounds is finally mine again! i use to own this as a kid and fucking loved it! Now its expensive as shit to find. For $5 im so fucking happy.

Have you managed to make the colours and resolution work ok?
Wish they'd patch it or release an HD remaster like with AoE2

The gog version works flawlessly for me on Windows 7, the resolution works and there is no issue whatsoever. That said it's easy to bypass the psychedelic colors but I don't know remember how exactly, there are many threads around forums which discuss the issue, it's a reoccurring problem in many older games.

Everything works great! It feels so good playing it again. The colors work, the sound works, it boots right up instantly.
oh god it's galactic battlegrounds i totally forgot about this game
literally every game I played of this would degenerate into spawing so many killer ewoks or death stars and cheesing the other players
the best thing was to build a shitload of fortresses and fill them full of ewoks so when an enemy came into range they'd get around 20 green super charged turbolasers per salvo
fucking christ I hope i still got the discs for this game somewhere

Well on twitter they said more to come so keep your fingers crossed that we're blessed by whatever voodoo's used.
I just squealed like a little girl, Galactic Battlegrounds was my childhood
Woah. XWA works in 3D Hardware mode. GOG must have done something to fix it, because my Disc Copy doesn't work in 3D hardware mode with the latest AMD drivers.
[QUOTE]Star Wars Galactic battlegrounds [/QUOTE]
Oh my good yes. I spent so much time in the scenario editor making outrageously large battles that my friends started trying to one up each other in recreating prequel battles.

This is why i love GoG, because they know how to figure shit out.
for those wanting to play battlegrounds online, I play regular matches through gameranger. We should all get together and play a PvE match.
