Now besides Crysis those two other games are Crysis Warhead and Medal of Honor Pacific Assault. 3 of them which have a whooping 60% discount release.
Nice. I guess this means EA are slowly adding their newer older (whatever) games to GOG.
It would be great if an older game isn't selling well on Origin was put on GOG so it's worked on to work on newer systems. It wouldn't be much cost on their end.
the saboteur is criminally underrated
Wish they would add the old and older need for speed games. I was lucky enough to find a PC copy of underground 1 at goodwill but would really love to be able to play underground 2 on my computer. As well as the classic games and Most wanted and Carbon.
I was hoping they added the early Harry Potter games along with Black & White.
I'd understand licensing to the Potter games preventing that from appearing but surely Black & White would be viable for a GOG release.

I think the B&W license is caught in limbo somewhere where no one really has the full rights to publish it any more. Sad, since they're really some of the most unique games out there.
Finally a Simcity 3000 discount. Been waiting for ages to get. I wish they would go on sale together though.
Based on from what I'm seeing in the folder, the GOG.com version of Crysis 1 seems to contain the 64-bit executive that is absent from Steam and Origin versions, and the game is patched to 1.1.1.6156 (1.2.1). It also contains the sandbox editor.
If GOG crysis is 64bit I will have to grab it
Crysis has some nice mods released in the last few years like Call Of The Fireflies(guy was later hired to work on Ryse), The Worry Of Newport(lovecraftian theme, should get a sequel soon called Tryptych). Both walking simulators, but very atmospheric and high quality. There is also Nuclear Cataclysm which has Crysis gameplay, but I haven't played that yet.

I'm betting it won't be. The Steam version isn't and you have to download a fix to even get it to launch on 64-bit PCs.
Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault was fun as hell but unless GoG did some magic juju, good luck getting it to run widescreen without textures tearing and looking like ass
GOG connect please.

One of the comments says it does, also the Steam version runs just fine for me.

The Saboteur is still broken if you have over 4 cores.

The 64-bit version of the game that is included with the GOG.com version works just fine on Windows 10.

Wow I feel old. Now we just need Frontline.

That will never happen as that game was console exclusive. You can get it on PSN though
