a good start.

but still needs more X-Wing/Tie Fighter, and the rest of their adventure games.

Yes, Tie Fighter, that game was awesome!

These prices seem fairly decent considering they are games brought "back to life".

Wait a minute... a game company making reasonable prices for their classic sofware and allowing digital distribution via Steam? Ludicrous!

@deanb: On UK Keyboards it's Alt-Gr + 4 key (€). Or you can hold Alt key and type 0128. (Don't forget, numeric pad only.)

Alternatively, look it up in your system's Character Map.

LEGO Indiana Jones is a classic already?
I'm waiting for KOTOR to go up. I've never played it and I don't have an XBOX/like buying PC games from most other sources/really lazy.

Oh man, Armed and Dangerous? That's great, i've never been able to find it at stores anywhere, but the need to shoots sharks out of a gun and drag around short Scottish people has never left me

Couldn't you get Armed and Dangerous free somewhere? I remember them offering the whole thing for free a couple of years back.

Sadly, Kotor 1 and 2 for PC are super buggy, and unless you're running 98, that shit is likely to not work at all.

Srsly? I've never had any problems getting KOTOR 1 or 2 to run on XP, on more than one machine. Mind you I can't speak for Vista but if you're stuck using that OS you've got bigger problems anyways. Oh and i'm also only talking about getting them to run - if KOTOR2 craps out on you and eats your saved games and/or children/wife/parents/anyone you care about, that's just because the game was never friggin finished properly. But it's still fun! :)

I had it on my xbox. Great single player game in my opinion. I lost it long ago though, so i'll probably be buying it on steam.

LOOM!!! My favorite game of all time. The Last Crusade was pretty good, though I always got stuck in the library. It's not as simple as hitting the X with a blunt object...

Definitely going to pick up The Dig. Had really wanted the game when it was originally released but I couldn't afford it.

I wanted to play it too when I was younger...but for the same reasons I couldn't....

Now, I have it through Steam and I still can't play it because it won't work :(. Seems that many others are having the same problem as well.

Keeps giving a 'Game is unavailable - please try again at another time' error :(

I would consider all 4 adventure games for 5.00 a good price. This is a rip-off.

Alright how about a Phat-Pack with all of the games released today for 39.99? That seems about right to me.

Don't be such a cheap ass. These are some of the best games from available from last decade and well worth the price they're asking.

I thought they were also re-releasing all the monkey islands though? Those are the ones I was looking forward to the most.

I wish Microsoft would release Star Wars KOTOR and Gladius in their Xbox Originals library. I never even finished Gladius but remember it being fun.

I believe LucasArts said that they will consider putting them on Steam if these games sell well enough.

They could put it on for $50 and it would outsell their entire library.

I am sorely, sorely tempted to pick up Loom and The Dig today, but with the two Monkey Islands also dropping and the GameStop sale, I don't really know where to spend my money.

Dammit, since when is having a wide variety of good cheap games to buy a problem!

Yeah, kinda stuck up on me too.

I was all set and ready to buy HotD and BC over at that Gamestop sale and then I was like "Wait, you just bought BlazBlue and you're still playing inFamous". And then this pops up and I'm all about the Star Wars titles.

Sweet temptation: the bane of my existence.

What? No one else has picked up on their strained reference in the title here? I'll give you a hint:

"You have chosen...wisely..."

A bit of a stretch there, Christopher.

For the life of me, I still don't know why I still haven't joined the Steam "revolution"... but the resurrection of these classics definitely has me thinking otherwise.

Consider me a new recruit, I'll be joining the ranks this weekend! :)

If your up for old games check gog.com, they're pretty good.
But yeah Steam is uber awesome, I'm gonna wait till Friday though to see if any magical weekend sales prices happen to these.
