Made my first GOG purchase today

[Jschmuck2]

Massive props to the folks at GOG.com - seriously, what a cool layout/website. I really thought the "game collection shelf" idea after you buy something was slick. Right now I only have Fallout 2 and tactics in there but if my wallet lets me, I'll probably have more soon

Ehhh go to hell - go try out that website and tell me it isn't cool.

I love this company. I have already bought like 6 games from them.

 

[AmberClad]

I like the concept. I think if you're willing to buy bundles though, you can get many of those games for less with the Steam compilation packs or from Amazon, Newegg, GoGamer etc. Like the individual Unreal games they have -- you could get Unreal Anthology instead for only $10, which has all of those games, plus an additional soundtrack CD. Same with the Fallout Collection, the Citizen Kabuto + Evolva bundle that GoGamer sells, etc.

There are some games on there though that I haven't seen being sold anywhere else.

I am not into RPGs, or really old games.. :-/ I don't pay big money for 2-bit graphics.

 

[Dorkenstein]

Dunno if you even looked at the prices, but you can get most of the games on GOG for less than the price of most meals. When they first opened I got a game for free.

Well, that's because you don't know classic gaming and can't appreciate the roots of the current gaming movement.

I hear there's a new CoD coming out next month though. Enjoy.

No, I just play good games. I don't play Call of Duty, it is full of bad players.

 

[Dorkenstein]

Oh, games made over 10 years ago weren't good? Good thing you told me, that makes complete sense.

You will not win this. Back out of the thread now before the big dogs show up and have their way with you.

I'm hoping GOG will carry Dungeon Keeper 1 and 2 someday Here is to wishing.

Me too! I had DK2 for about a month before my old Win 98 machine bit the dust, and I haven't been able to get it to run on three different XP and one Vista machine since.

 

[SunnyD]

Funny, I had a similar idea about 5 years ago. Looks like I should have gone after it.

 

[DaveSimmons]

I'm feeling the urge to replay Fallout Tactics, which was fun even if not a "real" Fallout. A version that's patched and "just works" for under $10 sounds perfect.

 

[Dorkenstein]

Yeah Dave, I had the same urge. I owned it on disc but a convenient download version was worth it too, since I got it free as a promo. Might not be considered "canon" fallout but I still love that game, tons of options.

HAHA if $10 is big money then go mow mamaw's lawn or pick up dog logs or something. Or just come out and say you have ADHD and a complete lack of judgement so people aren't too harsh.

No, I have an expensive computer. :-/ That is what I mean.

 

[GaryJohnson]

Arx Fatalis is the only thing that really interests me in their game catalogue, but I already have it on Steam. I might try Die by the Sword on GOG.

 

[datalink7]

I would buy Freespace 2 and play it if I didn't already have it (still ahve the cds). Awesome game. Highly reccomended even today.

I might buy Castles 2 for nostalgia. Have fond memories of that game though it is probably really dated at this point.

Edit: Haha they have Giants: Citizens Kabuto! Awesome!

Define Expensive.

That's a relative term you know. I just re-built a computer for a friend(added video card, reinstalled OS + games). P4 2.26 with an ATI Radeon 1650xt pro. He paid $75 for the pC and the card was $40. He doesn't have any money. It was an expensive computer.

anyways t-boy, it's clear you are just trolling

Haha, my God you're an idiot.

 

[Scrimmy]

And just in case from anyone GoG is reading: System Shock 2 and the Thief series! Please! I will buy both games within 24 hours of them being available, I promise.

 

[ViviTheMage]

sooo, they just sell old games?
