[Rhaknar]

oh shit

 

[strafer]

I see no SWAT 3.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

I want Swat 3 and 4 dammit.

 

[Rav3n90]

I see no SWAT 3.

It's available on GOG though

 

[JohnTinker]

Is the original Tribes still available anywhere?

 

[muzzymate]

I've had the Space Quest collection from Steam for awhile now. Glad to see more class old-school Sierra titles are coming.

 

[archnemesis]

Do they run well on modern PCs? I've been burned before buying older PC games from Steam. GOG is usually the safer choice.

 

[Mad Season]

gabriel knight beasts within is my fave game of all time!

 

[Protome]

The Phantasmagoria games are some of the best worst games.

 

[DryvBy]

I want Swat 3 and 4 dammit.

This needs to happen! SWAT 3/4 are the best coop police games out there.

Every old Sierra game I have (FMV included) runs fine. Even runs on my Steamlink.

I have an i7, Giga 1080 and 16GB RAM.

 

[Justinh]

This is good, but I already have the games I want on GoG. (Quest for Glory games, Phantasmagoria games)

 

[Santiako]

I'm having flashbacks of cat hair moustaches and it's triggering my adventure game ptsd.

 

[OniBarubary]

Quest for Glory 1 through 5?!?!?!

MAH DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCKKKKKKK

 

[Raptomex]

It's available on GOG though

3 runs like ass on 8/10 from my experience. Shame. If anyone knows how to get it running without a problem. please share.

 

[Rushersauce]

Is the original Tribes still available anywhere?

iirc all tribes games are free

 

[galvenize]

I must've been 5 or 6 when I watched my sister play through Phantasmagoria. One of the final scenes made me cry out of fear.

 

[TheJollyCorner]

Immediately heard the Sierra 'jingle' when I saw that image.

Lovely, lovely nostalgia. :}

 

[Secret Fawful]

I've been wanting these games to get on Steam for years. This is awesome news.

 

[Tizoc]

iirc all tribes games are free

Mind linking to where to get them?

 

[LordGorchnik]

This is amazing to see. The Quest for Glory games are some of the best adventure games ever conceived!

 

[woopWOOP]

Oh nice, Police Quest 1.
Maybe I'll actually get to beat that in my lifetime.

[koji kabuto]

Any one tried Police Quest Collection?

How good it runs on Windows 10? any known issues ?

 

[Glix]

These are the games of my childhood. My memories are very very fond.

I greatly enjoyed typing naughty words in the pc (in the station) in Police Quest. If I remember correctly if you type "pussy" it comes back with "a safe port in any storm"

 

[Zukuu]

Nice. Some of them are really great in a bad and cheesy way. Glorious.

 

[FaintDeftone]

CTRL + F, SWAT

No results found

 

[SinCityAssassin]

Gabriel Knight was fucking stupid, and I loved it.

 

[Berto]

Gabriel Knight all over my face! In my veins! I adore Gabriel Knight 3, its such a flawed gem, when I was a kid I wanted to visit the french pyrenees because of it.

 

[TheBeebs]

Anyone know if these will work with Windows 10? I purchased the King's Quest Collection a few months ago, and I was really disappointed I couldn't even run them in Windows 10.

 

[Deadstar]

I only ever played the King's Quest games. Quest for Glory looks interesting.

 

[Pheace]

If history is anything to go by these probably *are* the same as the GOG versions. Wouldn't be the first time.

 

[Hesemonni]

I thought these were there already?

Would love to find the time to play QfG-series.

 

[DryvBy]

Gabriel Knight all over my face! In my veins! I adore Gabriel Knight 3, its such a flawed gem, when I was a kid I wanted to visit the french pyrenees because of it.

I just bought this too for $15 on Amazon too. I just opened it last night to install it. Now I feel dumb lol.

Nope, release today. King's Quest was available.

Speaking of this topic anyway: Anyone remember this old gem?

eBay and Amazon have floppy disk copies for a hefty price. I need this on Steam.

 

[nubbe]

Probably the DOS version of phantasmagoria

 

[epmode]

Even if you run into trouble, I'm thinking SCUMMVM will work with most of the games.

(I'm not sure if SCUMMVM works with the late generation games like Quest for Glory 4)

 

[JaseC]

They are. Distinct lack of DRM included.

 

[Gunstarheroes]

It's available on GOG though

I can't believe they still haven't put up SWAT 4. Its killing me.

 

[epmode]

I can't believe they still haven't put up SWAT 4. Its killing me.

I owned a copy of SWAT 4 on Direct2Drive. Worked fine.

Then they got bought out by Gamefly. Even though I still have the installer file, the stupid thing refuses to work with the authentication servers offline.

Sigh. DRM sucks.

 

[Chris R]

No Red Baron?

 

[Trouble]

Oh shit, Quest for Glory. That was my jam back in the day.

 

[MUnited83]

That only tends to happen to games that were on Steam a long time ago before GOG was a thing. When it takes to same day released/GoG and then Steam down the line, the game will be the same build, so they will run exactly the same.

 

[Pathfinder]

The Adventures of Willy Beamish, please.

This niche game deserves a re-release.

 

[potatohead]

I want Swat 3 and 4 dammit.

Available for so long on GOG (not SWAT 4 though).

 

[Dusk Golem]

I'm in.

 

[Gamezone]

I want Swat 3 and 4 dammit.

Me too. Also, no achievements.

 

[randomlee26]

Are there dead-ends in Quest for Glory?

 

[ViolentP]

Buyer beware. I know that the King's Quest and Space Quest collections on Steam were rife with compatibility issues. Make sure to research successful runs on your OS before purchasing.

Are there dead-ends in Quest for Glory?

I don't believe so.

 

[Clearos]

Quest of Glory. That is all that is needed. Get that now.

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

Oh yes, Police Quest, that's a series I wanted to play for a loooong time.
