Would you buy...

Arena
Daggerfall
Redguard
Bloodspire

If they hit Steam for a bundle of $20.00? Also, do you think there is any chance of this happening? would be so awesome to have these games playable without having to use the dosbox work around

Even if they made these games available on steam, we would still require Dosbox to run them. Same old game engines, same problems.

That's lame, I assume it's too much work to fix the problems and do updates so that they can run on their own in vista and Windows 7?

Updating a game engine is always a ton of work and I doubt Bethesda would be willing to invest the time.
I would be extremely happy if they did, but reworking their old titles doesn't seems to be in their habits. :(

Better yet, they could release them on GOG.

DosBox required games aren't very commercially viable today I think. It would be way better if they just kept releasing them free like with TES1-2 which is why I hope they don't release them on steam/GOG.

Redguard & Battlespire bundle with Arena & Daggerfall as free bonus content(or some thing like that) for about $10 on Steam or GOG, then Absolutely! Or Bethesda could release Redguard & Battlespire for free!!, I'd like that more.

Just release the games for free and let the awesome community work its magic.

DaggerfallXL looks pretty damn good if they can finish it up in the foreseeable future.
