I hope you all know how lucky you are.
Many games that we have that are lan have not yet given us a problem. It just depends on the game.

Haha, yeah, I'm jealous too when someone mentions their partner likes video games. My wife hates video games and has nothing good to say about them and I've never been able to convince her to think otherwise.

Mine came to the realization that I'm not going to change, so she reached a level of tolerance fairly quickly.

Only game I play with the missus is ascension on the iPad. She cheats somehow at that so don't play anything else!

Yeah, i too envy being able 2 play PC games with my other half 1 day when & if i get married but since when did this became the topic instead? Lol.
So anyway, back 2 the topic. While legally u can install as many copies as you want in ur hse, 2 ppl playing fr the same copy may be a grey area 4 some. From a technical pt of view i wld say GOG's stance on this matter is that it only applies 4 the SAME person. So while there's of cos ntg 2 stop u fr letting ur spouse or fren or whoever fr playing the same copy, albeit in the same household, the official policy (if i interpret it correctly) is that the game is meant 4 u alone. That is, 1 game per person/account.
Personally though, i feel that as long as still within the same residence it shd still be 'ok' (especially since it's ur wife) but dun take my word 4 it of cos. ;p

No one will bat an eye if the game is played by two people in the same household. Just don't abuse the system snd start sharing it with friends.

This way your wife will think you're spending the evening with your mistress, your mistress will think you're spending the evening with your wife, and you can sit hidden in the basement playing video games.

That's a great idea, I'll finally be able to get through my backlog of games. What do I tell my wife and my mistress when they start getting suspicious and asking questions?
