Because many of You seek this knowledge I hereby bestow this Official Statement upon Thee:
We are still working on ensuring Win7 compatibility. Considering the quantity of games in our catalogue it will require us some time to make sure that this quantity comes with quality. So I do assure You that once GOG.com games are compatible with Windows7 a proper notice will appear on our site. After all that would be something boast, wouldn't it? :)

Good to hear! Messiah completely fell apart on me in Windows 7. That's the only one so far though.

Yay... I suppose.

Awesome, keep up the good work :D

Sweet. This is great news.
Keep up the good work.

Great news. Thanks. :)

Great news! The "classy community" has already started doing its part as well, compiling a list of those games that already work fine. Might help you guys focus your efforts on those games known not to work:

Excellent, by the time I have a computer to run windows 7 on, my GOGs should work fine!

Got 90% of my games backed up to DVDs right now, hopefully I won't have to redownload and burn too many games. :/

That's a good point.
Will we be updated on which titles are fixed and when?

Great work. But when you updated these games we need to download them again all, right? But what about missing games like Operation Flashpoint, CMR or TOCA 3? We can't download them. I don't know maybe they don't need to be updated BTW.

I'm sure the "lost games" are completely lost to us now and won't get any further testing or updating.
BTW - I thought TOCA was the only one that couldn't be downloaded anymore? AFAIK, the rest just can't bought, but if you already own them, you can still download them.

People with the games in their account already can redownload. I downloaded ToCA 3 again a couple of weeks ago.
Also, I doubt that GOG are counting discontinued games in this overhaul anyway. But I might be wrong.

You can download it still.

Hmm, they said you won't able to download TOCA and CMR 2005 earlier and released press release about them.
Here.

They also said that they'd be fighting to keep the games available to download through GOG. I guess they won that right. Or the battle isn't over yet.
