The GOG team have sent an email around to their users pointing out they have now signed a deal with Epic Games to distribute DRM-free copies of the older and frankly, the better (Unreal 2 not withstanding) entries in the Unreal Series.
Starting with Unreal Gold & Unreal Tournament (see: UT ’99) GOTY Edition (available now for $9.99 each) and with Unreal II and UT 2K4 Editor’s Choice Edition (must have missed that one at retail) coming soon for the same amount, nows the best chance to pick up on the best multiplayer shooters around and find out what all the fuss was about before CliffyB started loving consoles and hating those scurvy PC gamers pirates.
Adam Oldakowski, MD of GOG.com had this bit of marketing spiele to say:
Epic Games redefined the first-person shooter with the Unreal series, and we’re very happy to welcome them to the growing list of companies that share our vision of digital distribution
I laughed… 🙂
