GOG.com has just announced that Electronic Arts will be joining the ranks of those publishers making their back-catalogs available for renewal and republishing. Those of us with fond memories of older games will rejoice as some of PC gaming's best-loved games are brought back from the dead.

Currently, you can grab Ultima Underworld 1 & 2, Dungeon Keeper, and Wing Commander: Privateer for $5.99 each. Soon, you will also be able to buy Crusader: No Remorse, Magic Carpet, and Sid Meir's Alpha Centauri.

As for System Shock and Syndicate, those two titles are not part of the deal signed with EA, but there is an excellent chance that they will eventually make their way to GOG.com in the future, just as Baldur's Gate did.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I think it's time to make my wallet cry for mercy....

Just got this email as well!

Brilliant, Dungeon Keeper (1&2) were great and Crusader i was thinking about just the other day.

Great that these come out now and made to run on the latest stuff, getting old things to run is one hell of a damn pain!

Also just saw Freespace2 is up there, maybe i'll finally get around to playing and finishing this game now.
