Sure, most of us will already have some of these, but that D&D Bundle is too good to miss, and Torchlight for FREE? Um, yes.

That Dungeons and Dragons package is looking especially enticing. I've always meant to give Planescape: Torment a try, and it's bundled with a bunch of other critically acclaimed D&D games for $21. I also can't pass up Total Annihilation for $3.
Interesting how some games stand the test of time due to their art style; mostly hand painted or 2D adventure games such as Desperado's & Broken Sword etc compared to games that were created around the same time.
I'll be crossing my fingers for a Legacy of Kain bundle and classic city-building bundle.
Like it's got better graphics but the concept art and gameplay is just stale in comparison.

has no place in this industry.
Well, duh. The one drawback to that pack is that it doesn't include the original Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen. I suppose Good Old Games just hasn't been able to get the rights to it yet. I know there's a PC version of the game.
I'm still going to pick up that pack, despite already owning console copies of all of those games. I love me some Legacy of Kain.
Oh wait, I got Fez too!
Actually, I think there are a few that might come with Steam codes. You would have to check the profile for the individual game to know for sure. While there is no DRM on GOG titles, there are some games that require a specific CD key for accessing the multiplayer servers. For those games the CD-Key for the game is essentially attached to your GOG account. These measures usually only apply to certain modern indie games available on GOG. I noticed that the multiplayer Introversion games mention it.
Update: I browsed through some titles and didn't see any of them offering Steam keys bundled in. It's probably safer to assume that they don't.
most of the stuff is "drm free" which means it's just an installer and no keys required or anything.
you can always load games through steam and add them to your library with "add a non-steam game" for ease of navigation and stuff.
Now to see if the games will get played, I spent the whole day in agony considering whether or not to buy because sometimes I buy games with the idea that I'm not feeling like playing them right now, but that I will eventually so I best purchase it now that it's cheap. And then I never feel like playing it. And I haven't played half of my pretty long Steam list. Some games I want to have played, but don't want to play if I can spend that time reading a book.
Too bad they just have Aquanox and not a Windows working version of Schleichfahrt...one of the best games ever
