all games from Wing Commander and Ultima series available on GOG.com are discounted by 50%. You have the chance to buy Wing Commander 4, or Ultima VII: the Complete Edition for only $2.99 until Monday, June 4 11:59 PM EDT.

Ultima is a series of fantasy RPGs created by Richard Garriott (a.k.a. Lord British more) than 30 years ago. The main story of Ultima universe, which takes place in the worlds of Sosaria and, later, Britannia, follows the unnamed protagonist (known only as the Stranger or later as the Avatar, an incarnation of virtue) through three “Ages”: The Age of Darkness (Ultima I-III), The Age of Enlightenment (Ultima IV-VI), and The Age of Armageddon (Ultima VII-IX). It’s one of the most influential RPG series, recognized for open-ended gameplay, in-depth morality system exploring mature themes like racism and xenophobia, and a rich and detailed world. Whether you want to try the original trilogy, visit thousands of colorful places and characters in Ultima 4+5+6, play through Ultima VII: The Complete Edition--arguably the best in series, find your way back home in Ultima VIII: Gold Edition or complete Ultima Underworld 1 and 2, the first first-person RPGs with true 3D environments, all these titles are available for only $2.99 this weekend on GOG.com.

Wing Commander is a series of 3D space combat simulators, described by the games’ creator Chris Roberts as "World War II in space.” In this series, you follow pilots of the Terran Confederation in their fight against the aggressive feline Kilrathi. Introduce yourself to the epic military space conflict in Wing Commander 1+2, play as Col. Christopher "Maverick" Blair (starred by Mark Hamill) and watch amazing FMV cut-scenes in Wing Commander 3: Heart of the Tiger, enjoy fast, action-packed, and varied space combat in the most expensive video game of its era Wing Commander: Privateer.

In addition to that, because the Wing Commander series plays so much better with a joystick, we’ve approached the guys from Logitech and they were kind enough to offer a few awesome Logitech Extreme™ 3D Pro joysticks to our users. Leave a comment below for a chance to win 1 of 3 logitech joysticks. You can also enter a similar joystick-winning contests on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+.

Become the Ultimate Commander (THE ULTIMMANDER!) and buy the complete collection of EA’s Most Famous Classic Series for only $26.91, this weekend on GOG.com.
Hmm... a contest to win a Logitech stick? I must enter!
Anything is better than my $10 no-brand joystick that won't allow fine movements :/
Finally picked up WC3 and 4. I have WC3 in German only and WC4 on CD only, so 5 euros for both better versions is a great deal.

Do the joysticks even work properly with the WC games, given that they run in DOSBox though? Would be interested to see how FlightGear and FreeSpace is with one...
So neat! Thanks.
Finally I can complete the whole Ultima series with the first games missing in my collection... Even if I know I will not play entirely the first 3 of them.
I am in the contest, too.
Too many good games here but too bad I don't have any spare cash at the moment. :(

Oh, and +1 for joystick contest. :)
Ow man. Take my money already. And while i am here give me the Joystick. ;-)
Oh another great offer. I have already bought the Wing Commander series off this site but the Ultima series looks tempting. The Joystick would be nice too :)
Holy flying pizza ! Sure the joystick would be a nice addition with these games !
A free joystick sounds pretty awesome.

I've used the joystick with DOSBox (and Freespace): works fine. To make full use of all the joysticks buttons, you may need PPJoy (or use Logitech's program that comes with the stick or any other such program) to program buttons beyond the first couple since DOSBox only recognizes 2 (or maybe 4 I can't remember) buttons automatically. So you may have to program the rest outside of the game. But the basic stick works fine.

EDIT: Again, to GOG, not entering joystick competition as I already have that stick. Good luck to the rest!

Already own the first and second Wing Commander, the lack of a joystick is pretty much the only thing keeping me from getting the others yet. It's damn nice to see you guys even giving away physical items, that's why I love to get my games here.
Joystick !!!!!!
Ultima 7 for 3$ is a nobrainer.

PS: Fans of the Wing Commander series might be interested in the fan project "The Dark Dawn". It's really amazing what a few guys can do with a little bit of dedication and ten (!) years of hard work.
My wallet is screaming in agony!!
At least I hope to reassure him that he won't have to pay for a new joystick....

Well, that's an idea. I know that DOSBox will not recognise anything beyond the first two axis and first four buttons, but using PPJoy (I actually use Joy2Key out of habit) would probably solve that one. In fact, I think that's how I solved the problem with Mortal Kombat 3 back in the day :)
