Hello fellow "Good ol' Gamers" (GOG)
Unlimited (R) | Games Studios[Tm] Rep here...You may call me Coates. I am 19 and my favorite old game on the PC hopefully soon to be Dragon Force. Thats right you heard me right, we saw the PC version posted for TBA at 1-up.com under reviews/previews. Me and my co-wolers have not an idea about when to expect it or that Design works now merged? with Altus?
A little help in clarity would be nice!

Bryan, 22 from Canada. I have been registered here for a little while now. But finally bought a game earlier this month. What can I say besides love this damn site and these games are perfect for my laptop I use in college. Keep up the good work GOG Team!
Steven, 20, from Australia. Came across GOG in a forum post, came here and was very surprised at all the old school games I've been looking for over the years, plus Vista compatibility to boot. Time to break out Descent once again.
Keep up the great work guys!
Peter, 28, Poland
Hope when I am old and retire, i will still love gaming, becouse now i don't have any freaking time for it :(
But than again in the future we will probbably insert a plug to the brain, or take a suppository insted of disc ;]
Hello to all my fellow appreciators of classic games.
My name's Graeme and I'm from England, though you can call me Sorth. I've been a gamer for as long as I can remember starting back almost before I could form sentences with an Atari ST and watching my dad play Doom on an old 386.
I'm really glad there's a decent site for all of the old school classics now since all of the others I've found have either been overly expensive or somewhat non-intuitive to use.
The fact that all of the games come ready made and easy to use on pretty much any version of windows is a major draw as well since I, like many, really don't see messing around with configurations or third party downloads to enable compatability as a good use of time.
That turned into a little rant there. But still! Really looking forward to seeing this site grow and downloading some of my old favourites and, hopefully, a few more surprises that I'd forgotten about (I'd TOTALLY forgotten Waxworks. While Descent, though not forgotten, was relegated to the back of my mind until seeing it here).
Now I'm interested to see what the next few gems they choose to make available are.

Gwyddia, 28 (29 next week), from Philadelphia, PA. I've been playing since long before I got my very own NES on Christmas morning 1985, but I couldn't really afford a PC on my own until 1997 when I started college. I've made up for it since: sitting around me right now are my MacBook Pro, my custom-built desktop PC, a netbook, a Lenovo T61 and a couple other Macs. I've got consoles pretty well-covered too.
Gaming is to me what knitting is for some ladies - obsession. I must have every color (console), type of needle (PC hardware), and softness of yarn (games?). I run my own little gaming blog and help keep a WoW raid group going.
I am really looking forward to hitting the ground running (sitting on my couch?) here at GOG. Thanks for having me!
Wow, reading through other posts, I am starting to feel a little old...
Anyhow, my name is Jonathan, I am 30. I was born and raised in California in the US. I grew up in the bay area near SF, but call Los Angeles home these days...
My parents brought a pong set home 6 months before they brought me home... and it's been downhill ever since. I started playing PC games around 1988; though I was always more of an arcade/console gamer as a kid (hardcore SEGA fan for life). I still remember my first pc game though, a shareware title called Captain Comic!

Hi.
Hi everyone!
My name is Greg, i'm 23 and i live in Italy. I've been gaming for most of my life, my first and most beloved title being Monkey Island (the original with 16 colours, played on an old 386 PC :)
I discovered GoG.com on a local PC gaming magazine's site, and i am damn glad someone has finally took over the task of bringing the Good Old classics back to life :)
Keep up the good work GoG!!
Hi, my name is Brian, I'm from California, and I'm 21.
I've been gaming ever since I got my first computer, an old amber-monitor, DOS IBM. The first game I remember playing was MS Simulator 1.0, though I can't remember if I was any good at it.
Recently, I haven't been able to play as much as I'd like to. But during lunch, I might sneak in a few minutes of Avernum.
I found the GOG teaser page last summer when I was searching google for "Good Old Games" to play.
From Denmark, 43 and an old pure AG player since the late eighties :)
Have most of the old classics plus a few more ;)
Came here because I was looking for some games to play until new AG's come out.
Instead I downloaded Gothic and had my very first go with an RPG - and loving it! :D
I'm sorta hooked, and so far I've bought:
- Morrowind (GOTY/GOLD Edition)
- Legends of Aranna (Dungeon Siege included)
- Gothic (from here)
- Gothic 2 and 3 (so cheap I couldn't resist) :) - Of course I'll get Gothic 2 from here too.
- Divine Divinity + Beyond Divinity
- Neverwinter Nights (Diamond Edition)

Hi I'm Alex, from Australia, I'm 28 and still into gaming, as I have been since I was 5 on the Amstrad CPC.
I will soon be reviewing GOG in Pixel Hunt, I'll save most of the juicy bits for the review for now, but I have to say I am thus far impressed with the site.
What I want to see is more games! I have already bought a few games, some of them are ones I already have - to test the system - and others I have never played before.
I have to say I have enjoyed the experience.
The first game I remember playing is Harrier Attack on the CPC, but the best game has to be Star Control 2. Any chance of packaging the Urquan Masters for GOG?
Hi everybody.
I am from India. I mainly relied on retail box for my games. But lately I was trying few digital distribution services. I use STEAM and GoG now a days along with retail.
I have more games bought from GoG than from STEAM simply because GoG is doing a great job at great price point.
Thanks to GoG team. Looking forward to buy many more great games.
