Another weekend sale on GOG.com, and another one of those “holy crap these games are 50% off!?” deals where you find out they are only 50% off if you buy all games that are on sale; the individual titles are 30% off.
However, this time it’s a little bit different. Because this time, the games involved are Master of Magic, Total Annihilation: Commander Pack (TA and the Core Contingency and Battle Tactics expansions), Total Annihilation: Kingdoms (with Iron Plague expansion), Master of Orion 3, and best of all Master of Orion 1+2!
You can grab them all for $16.95 combined, or grab the individual titles for $4.19 each. Except Master of Orion 3 ($6.99) but you don’t ever want to play that game anyway. In fact, if you just ignore that game ever existed, you can buy the rest of the games for a total of $16.76. Kingdoms was not exactly the best TA game either, but for $4.19 it’s worth a shot.
Whatever you do, make sure to pick up Master of Orion 1+2 and Master of Magic. I cannot even begin to describe how great those games are, or count the years of time I’ve lost playing them. It would have to be something close to the amount of time someone would spend getting five alts to beat Icecrown Citadel in World of Warcraft.
I’m thinking about picking up the individual titles minus Master of Orion 3, because even for the extra $0.19, that game’s only merit is that it coined disappointment for gamers well before Final Fantasy XIII was even conceptualized.
