Due to a rather large backlog of un-played GOG games (not that I am complaining I love have a huge gaming library) I do not generally buy newly added games on GOG unless it is on sale. However there are a few games that I will buy the day GOG gets them. They are (in no particular order):

1. Homeworld (1,2 and expansion)
2. Tie Fighter
3. Star Wars Rebellion
4. Imperialism
5. Close Combat 2

What are your insta-buy games?
Legacy of Kain stuff, I really think I own all the other old games that are good, boxed.
Right now I don't have any, I've got enough of a backlog to last me a few years at this point.

Although,X-Wing and much of the rest of the LA catalog would be really tempting.
System Shock 1 + 2
Thief 1 + 2

Those are the 4 that come to mind.

Oh, and I suppose X-Com, just so I have a non-steam venue to play it.
Day of the Tentacle
Sam and Max: Hit the Road
any Lucas Arts games,System Shock,Thief,Theme Park,Theme Hospital,Wing Commander IV and the Goldbox series
My backlog has gotten way too long to justify much in the way of insta-buys. At the moment the only insta-buy games I can think of would be TIE Fighter and Age of Empires 2.

The Steam version is Dosbox anyway I think? So you can just move them anywhere I believe.

And I don't think I have any insta-buys right now. Not gog's anyway. The new X-com by Firaxis might be though :p~~

Much like you, I don't really want or need anything. If I was to replace my CD versions, I would also choose Homeworld and then AoE 2 Gold. Ooh and Rise of Nations, that one was great.

Hey, you're right! For some reason I didn't realize that :P.
Off the top of my head a few:

1) Age of Empires 2 (gold) - played the first and all the rest, but missed out two, and considering I like RTS and all the rave reviews it gets its a missing hole in my collection I'd like to experience and fill.

2) Homeworld Cataclysm - I've got the whole series, but for some reason I've never been able to get Cat to work. I'd probably grab it on GoG on the hope that they get it working or at least for a revival of interest and some tech help. One of the best in the series, esp since it moved onto a fully mobile base of operations instead of mostly static (that and the story actually built on from the first unlike HW2 which jumped into the middle of another storyline without much linking to the first).

3) Jade Cocoon - ok so they'd have to start doing PSONE converts but I'd totally get this! One of the best games ever and sadly my own copy has degraded beyond playability (that and the PS2 has also decided to break itself....)

4) Battlezone2 - a quirky novel idea for a game and one that has not really been tried again that often (esp in single player).

5) That game with the shark gun by the people that made Kabuto - I've totally forgotten its name - but that game just because its more of the Kabuto crazy madess kind.


That's mostly it that I can recall, one or two other titles might grab my interest for an early buy, but those would be the dead certain ones to get purchased, even if they were each at the £9.99 price point
Homeworld 1 and 2. I have the discs, but would love disc-less.
Lucas Arts
SECRET WEAPONS OF LUFTWAFFE
Battle of Britain
Battle Hawks 1942

Pacific Islands (Tank battle game)
Aces of the Deep
Jutland (Software Sorcery)
Battle of the North Atlantic (hopefully with American add on ships)
Gettysburg: The Turning Point (SSI)
Red Star Rising
Perfect General
Combat (like Perfect Gen)
Any Cinemaware games (but I know you can't :( ........)
Shogun
BC Racers
BattleTech: The Crescent Hawk's Inception
Eye of the Beholder games
War in Middle Earth ( Melbourne House )
Interplay Lord of the Ring games




And a bunch others I can't think of right now :)
