From out of nowhere, EA has shadow-dropped a whole bunch of games from its back catalogue on Steam. These include PC gaming favourites with entries from the Dungeon Keeper, Populous, and Sim City series, as well as a Command & Conquer: The Ultimate Collection which slams together a whopping 17 titles from the beloved franchise.
To celebrate their sudden arrival on Steam, EA is hosting a sale event with each game seeing an initial price cut of at 50%. Here is a full list of the EA games that just dropped on Steam:
- Dungeon Keeper 2
- Dungeon Keeper Gold
- Populous
- Populous 2: Trials of the Olympic Gods
- Populous: The Beginning
- Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri Planetary Pack
- Sim City 3000 Unlimited
Then there’s Command & Conquer: The Ultimate Collection which includes:
- Command & Conquer
- Command & Conquer: The Covert Operations
- Command & Conquer: Red Alert
- Command & Conquer: Red Alert: Counterstrike
- Command & Conquer: Red Alert: The Aftermath
- Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun
- Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun Firestorm
- Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2
- Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2: Yuri’s Revenge
- Command & Conquer: Renegade
- Command & Conquer: Generals
- Command & Conquer: Generals: Zero Hour
- Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars
- Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars: Kane’s Wrath
- Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3
- Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3: Uprising
- Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight
Oh, and there’s also The Saboteur, which we reviewed way back in 2009, saying “The Saboteur feels a little rushed and incomplete but has an unexplainably fun side to it. Frustrating and boring at times, it does give way to some great moments and conversation pieces. It’s hard to know whether Pandemic’s unfortunate closure became The Saboteur’s downfall as I can’t help but think that with a few more months of tidying up could have made this game a must-have. As it stands, it’s a nice diversion but a sadly one dimensional one.”
Pandemic Studios was shuttered by EA just weeks before The Saboteur launched. This was a tough one to swallow for gamers who fell in love with hits such as Mercenaries, Destroy All Humans, and of course, Star Wars: Battlefront.
Are there any EA classics on the list you’re dying to play again?
