Hi, I'm Dan from the States, I joined a long time ago but never took the time to look into the community. I've been a gamer for years and it was really awesome to see some of my old favorites coming back out. The first game I downloaded was Arx Fatalis, and it was incredible. Looking forward to chilling.
Hi everyone, I'm Nel-A!
My first gaming was on a mates old brick sized gameboy, but my first real, personal gaming was my megadrive with Mega Games Collection 1! I STILL love the music from World Cup Italia 1990!
Skip through N64, DC, GC, xbox, etc: recently I'm into RPG's and driving games, so I'm mad for PGR on the xbox's and I've been playing Fallout thanks to GOG! It's great! Next up for me Is Sacred Gold! I've looked at it loads and it looks so much fun!
Thank you everyone for a great forum! Viva GOG!
Hi all, I'm Tom. My first exposure to video games was the Atari 2600. Gives you an idea of how old I am. I also have fond memories of the great arcade days, and also my Commodore 64.
When PC's became popular, the days of Wolfenstein 3D, Doom and Quake were great to experience and watch as these types of games progressed. During the days of shareware, I played many shareware games and didn't actually buy many. Although I did buy X-Wing, Tie-fighter, X-Wing alliance and later the Collectors editions. These were by far my favorites. There was nothing better than improving your skill in X-Wing till you where good enough to take on the Death Star and then be presented with an award ceremony.
Now at current time I still relive my gaming days by playing my favorites through emulation (MAME, NES, SNES, Genesis...). I was so delighted when I discovered the GOG link from the DOSbox site. Everyone needs to support this site. This is how classic gaming should be. Keep up the good work.
Now excuse me please as I'm about to setup Freepace and Freespace 2 (which I just purchased from GOG) on my HTPC and my 50" plasma. My wireless joystick should be here any day now...
Hello to everyone here, my name is Jamie and still have a vic-20 in my garage which i purchased when it first came out. See you around the gog.
Hello, everyone, my name is Laurent. I discovered Good old Games in an article about retro-gaming and digital selling platforms.
I have been playing video games since 1997 (that's because I'm young) and I have been watching people playing games since I was 4.
My first game was Civilization II on the PC, and I enjoyed other titles like Command & Conquer, Age of Empires and Myth II soon after, while spending some time playing Half Life and Operation Flashpoint at my uncle's house.
I'm still playing video games, and I try to fill the gaps in my gaming culture by coming back to old titles that I've never played or not enough. Steam and GoG are very useful to do this.
I hope that titles like the Thief series and System Shock 2 will soon find their way in the Good old Games catalogue. Those are games that I'm unable to find anywhere, and that I would like to play.
On a side note, I'd like to apologize in advance for the spelling and grammar mistakes that I could make, as English is not my native language.

Hey everybody. I'm from Alaska, USA. I was born in 1989 so some games I remember, others I don't.
My first videogames were Tetris and Faceball 2000 on the GameBoy. I sucked at both and loved every minute of my virtual ass whuppin's. My first games on the PC were Ascendancy and Mechwarrior 2: 31st Century Combat. Incidentally, are there any good DOS rom sites out there? I haven't found any with MW2. I have DOSBox but no games and no know how to get it working.
Anyways, I found GOG in a gaming magazine offering a promotional discount code for Fallout, Fallout 2, and Fallout Tactics (possibly others too but I don't care about those). I was already in the midst of a nostalgia binge with Fallout and MW2 being in the forefront of my mind. So it was without hesitation that I went home and purchased all three Fallout titles (yes, even Tactics. I know most people frown upon it, but hey, it brings back memories).
Once I figure out why the GOG downloader keeps erasing my downloading progress, I'll be blasting radscorpions and raiders in no time.

Greetings all,
LoAdEd here. I reside in Livermore, CA. I've been playing and enjoying a lot of these games over the years. I first started playing network-based games with Descent 1 over a local BBS in Oregon. I then graduated to a dial-up connection using Kali for my Descent 1 and eventually Descent 2 fix and participate on Case's Ladder. I ran a computer gaming club in Oregon for 4 years with a friend of mine called BSDPN - Blood rushing, Surge drinking, Darkness seeking, Pizza eating, Netgamers. We played a lot of games but our big ones were Descent 2, Freespace 1/2, Need for Speed series, Quake, Diablo, Starcraft, and Age of Empires.
I then discovered Counter-Strike and got sucked away to the online competitive leagues both participating and at one point running my own league (BotB). I then moved on to 4 years with Star Wars Galaxies. After that game got ruined, I puttered around to different games.
I now run a gaming community called TEoS or The Edge of Sanity. It's a community for gamers of all walks of life. We play many different games on PC and XBox360. We run a Counter-Strike Source server (8.6.8.223) and website where we talk about old games, new games and everything in between. If you are looking for a fun gaming community to play these old GOG games with, please drop by our little home in the Internet. www.teosanity.com
GOG has been a welcome addition to the gaming realm. I'm looking forward to seeing Carmageddon 1 and Heavy Gear making an appearance in the GOG library soon.
Thank you,

Welcome to The Edge...
Hi everyone!
I've created an account here because I wanted to play Postal² again, and the price was good plus this website seems very fair for good old gamers hehe.
Anyway, I want to thanks GOG for this.
Hello everyone! I'm Adrian from Norway. I am 13 years old, and GoG.com has so many cool games that were for the PS2, I really missed Beyond Good & Evil.
There's also many new and exiting games that I have found on GoG.
I had to register because I bought Beyond Good & Evil on WeGame, and they sent me a gift via. GoG.
Thank you Good Ol' Games!
Regards, Adrian.
Hello.
I'm a 37 year old metal maniac living in San Antonio, Tejas. I found out about Good Old Games from an interview with a Bioshock developer that was posted at Gamespot, and have purchased 5 games so far from this wonderful little company (Jagged Alliance, Jagged Alliance Deadly Games, Duke Nuke 'Em 3d, Gothic, and Gothic 2); I intend to purchase quite a lot more games from it before all is said and done.
I've been gaming electronically since I was 7 or 8, which must have started around 1979 or 1980, and my first console was the Atari VCS (2600) with the faux wood-grain trim. My first computer was the Commodore Vic 20 (around 1982), which had as much RAM (4 kilobytes) as the Atari 2600, and my first PC clone was, in 1993, a Packard Bell 486 DX2 running at 50 MHz with 4 megabytes of system RAM. When it came time to upgrade its RAM by another 4 megabytes so that I could play Ultima VIII: Pagan, the extra memory, in 1995, cost $150!
I love seeing where technological advances are leading, and how artists and other creators are using the extra speed and storage and rendering to cram every last conceivable detail into games so that we'll have even less of an incentive to ever leave the house (other than to buy new games physically for the manuals or collectible edition extras).
I thank Good Old Games very much for making available games that were no longer in legal circulation and for optimizing them to run on modern operating systems in the process. I hope they eventually get the rights to some classic Origin titles, especially the Wing Commander series, the Ultima series (can Ultima VII's Voodoo memory manager ever be emulated?), and the two Crusader games.
Count me as a loyal long haul customer. I can't wait to see what new selections of classic titles GOG has in store for us.

I was sure I'd posted in this (or a very very similar thread before) but I failed to find it, so here goes anyways.
I'm Tom. 18 years old from England. Found gog.com when I was trying my best to find a way of playing Fallout on Windows XP. MY search led me to the gog.com page when it was offering beta sign ups. I signed up, and here I am a long time later having enjoyed Fallout along with Freespace 2. Still got a few more games I'd like to pick up, but I'll get round to them eventually.
Anyways, great site. Keep it up!
Hello Everybody, I am Master911 Joined Two days, Checked out the free games and then Got myself a Copy of Kingpin.

I'm a casual gamer and enjoy many games. I have a PS3 and this PC for gaming.. My first and so far only purchase from GoG was 'Postal 2' I enjoy many games and have played on the various machines of Sega Nintendo Playstation etc.. The games I grew up with included 'Chuck Yeager's Air Combat' 'M1 Tank Platoon' 'Commander Keen 4' 'Flight Simulator 5' 'Star Trek: 25th Anniversary' 'Star Trek: Judgment Rites' 'Star Trek: The Next Generation
A Final Unity' 'Doom 1 & 2' and many more.. I think gameplay is more important than eyecandy, and gaming should be about enjoying your games and not about who makes the best console or how this console pwns that console.. Oh and GOG.. What a great idea for a site.. I love that it's beta as this means this is only a baby waiting to grow..

Hi fellow gamers,
I have just downloaded and installed my first game with GOG, Fallout Tactics. I am sure that there will be many more to follow, because this is a suberp way the relive those good old gaming years...
GOG.com does an excellent job to bring us those great titles from the past in a modern version with, in the case of FT, loads of extras. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, GOG TEAM!
I began playing computer games on my old MSX in the 80's and on the PC in the early 90's. I like adventures, RPG's, strategy and simulation games.
