If you wanted to buy any of the games in theCommand & ConquerUltimate Collection,Dungeon Keeper, or Sim City 3000 - but didn’t want to do it on GOG where they were already on sale - then rejoice! EA has made these classics and more, and for some reasonThe Saboteur, available on Steam for the first time. You can see the full list of gameshere. I don’t have anything specific againstThe Saboteur, but I do think it’s very funny that the list goes, like, “beloved game from the 90s, beloved game from the 90s, 7/10 action game from 2009, beloved game from the 90s”. Also, I can take the opportunity to make fun of Graham and James, the tallest wrongest boys at RPS, who apparently both liked it.

About a decade ago EA came out with Origin, their desktop app/game buyin' portal that is now, confusingly for writing about it, just called EA. Around this period they pulled a bunch of games from Steam, and put these classics (and The Saboteur) on GOG instead. But now you can play ‘em via Gabe’s store and get those achievements and what not, if you’re an achievement hunter. Personally my pick of the bunch would be the Dungeon Keeper series, a Bullfrog strategy game about building and running a hell-dungeon. I understand Command & Conquer is very popular, though, and alsoPopulous(the original god game) andSid Meier’s Alpha Centuriare well worth a butchers if you don’t have them already.

Anyway, these games areall discountedto celebrate the fact they’re on Steam now, but as mentioned you could get them all on GOG anyway.
