I picked up one game- Task Force 1942 for a cool $1.79.  I don't know how much I'll play it, but I do want to give it a try and see if I can get over the graphics.  So few games like it out there...   :(

TF 1942 was an excellent game.

I have gone back and forth on whether I could actual deal with it's looks now.

Yeah, same here.  I held off too long during the Xmas sale, so I've been waiting for it to drop down to below $2 again.

How does it work on modern OSes? Win 8.1 for example?

I can't recall if I picked it up again from GoG or Steam or at all, but I could probably get past the gfx for the gameplay if I think of it as an indie game.  O:-)

(I do actually own a copy on... can't recall which kind of floppies, that's how long ago I bought it. Never played it lot, but played it some.)

At least with sales keeping things cheap, it is a no brainer to buy games on spec. That said I have a load of good games that don't get the love they deserve. Over the last month, I've played several where the last autosave was in 2012, or 2013! :o

Eyeballing Sword Coast Legends.  $10 seems like a good deal...

I was tempted as well but passed. Too many games sitting in my collection that remain unplayed.  This one will cycle around again in future sales.
