So I would really love to give MW2 and MW2 Mercs a shot since they seem to be the big favorites among most of the fanbase and while I do think that MW3 and 4 definitely hold up, I can see why MW2 gets so much love.
The problem is I have no way of getting my hands on it. Getting a physical copy can be expensive and often risky as you never know what version of the game you're buying, and certain versions are more cooperative than others.
So here's my question: Does anyone know of any good places to get an ISO file for or simply download MW2 and MW2 Mercs?

I really REALLY hope that GOG gets the rights to include the Legacy Mechwarrior games. That would be wonderful

GOG or Steam getting the old MechWarrior games would be great, but sadly do to the game of hot-potato that was played with the Battletech license, I don't see that ever happening. If you wanted to release a complete collection of the old games you'd need permission from Activision, Microsoft, and Atari all at once.

Use mechVM by Skyfaller for mechwarrior 2 as it will let you modify mechwarrior 2 you can edit the source also so you basically rewrite MECH2 completely but be warned this is LOSTECH so a few ways to live it out is learning how to hexedit www.mechvm.org/

Get Winrar then download Click on Unzip.exe then click on MechVM.exe then you should get 4 buttons of choice to click Mechlab doesn't work until you install Mech2 Play is to play a mechwarrior 2 game of choice View File Views the .PRJ file extensions which allows you to rewrite the entire game by extraction, just be sure to save the file as you want it to be saved and remember to add the proper extension and also remember to get a hexidecimal editor install + import detects CD for installation
