GOG to start selling LucasArts games

[Bison]

This is all well and good, but gog continues to thumb it's nose at bringing my favorite early rpgs back to life.  Come on where's the AD&D Gold Box series!

Star Wars™ Galactic Battlegrounds Saga

Nice game...look forward to play it on my netbook.

Still no Star Wars: Rebellion.  :(

There will be second group of games this week.  ;)

SW: Rebellion disappointed me...sure, you can destroy planets with your Death Star, but it pisses off the locals in the same system and makes them more Rebellion-prone rather than putting them in line like the cowards they are. Also you can't commit mass atrocities with your Stormtrooper legions. :(

You want mass atrocities.  Be careful what you wish for:

[BanzaiCat]

Well, I was joking...kinda.

Killing Jawas is a service, not an atrocity.

+1. Just waiting to see this GOG converted to be Win 7 friendly and then happy times.

Hm, aside from SW properties (and with Grim Fandango already on re-release), what Lucasart properties are we missing?

I for one would love to see a conversion of the PS2 game Gladius -- a fantasy gladiator tactical combat adventure (with a great soundtrack) sure to please any grog! (Sure I can play it on my spare PS2, if I go to the trouble of unpacking and setting it up, but...)

Doubt that will or even could possibly ever happen, sigh. If only the PS4 designers cared about backward compatibility. (Or the later PS3 designers.)

Otherwise... hm, was Outlaw GoG'd yet? Henry Fonda as the hero (instead of villain) of a FPS spaghetti western, using a slightly updated version of the original Dark Forces engine. Also an amazing soundtrack.

Really?

I had great fun as the Empire in Rebellion. Tried to destroy an entire system of planets because one had a strong Rebel taint that had leaked out to the other planets - also to "just see" how many blown up planets it would take before the entire universe universally hated the Empire. Answer: It didn't take much. Bunch of spineless cretins.

The one Rebellion game in which I finished building the Death Star as the Empire ended before I used it.

I had a large fleet of star destroyers, interdictors, etc in hyperspace to a system in which I thought the Rebels could be hiding their fleet.  Death Star finished construction and I was busy deciding where I wanted to send it when my fleet arrives out of hyperspace.  I was correct!  Big fleet battle (and planetary assault?), but I won handily and the game was over before my 'lil techno-moon could blast some rebel scum into space dust.
