Eh, the ones yesterday were kind of random (note: DOA1 is a better game than I thought it'd be... I wasn't sure if it'd actually be worth getting, but it definitely was), but today... those were all games I knew about (I played demos of all four of those back when I was getting PC Gamer) and knew were good games, so it's not like those were just random selections... there at least I was getting games I knew were good and were worth it (particular RedJack with its box... I love full-size PC game boxes so much...). :)
Descent: Freespace is a great space flight sim, X-Wing/TIE Fighter style. The two Freespace games are the best space sim series that isn't X-Wing or TIE Fighter.
Claw is a really good 2d side-scrolling platformer from 1997. Great game, and from a time when 2d sidescrollers as a genre had almost totally died on the PC...
Redjack is an adventure game. First person view, pirate theme (:)), and quite good.
Powerslide's a futuristic racing game... just a good game, not a great one, but worth $5 anyway.
