Hmm.. GOG has been doing this business for 3 years but there're still people who don't have faith on their philosophy.

Simple filter / search criteria on site would fix that problem...

I don't mind new games, as long as GOG also keeps working on getting out the old classics.
I'm also not surprised, as prior to the Witcher 2 launch, GOG said that they were more than happy to release new games, as long as they kept with the GOG philosophy - DRM free, fair price, and worldwide distribution I believe it was.
If they are true to their word and stick to that, it might even mean that for many - us Europeans at least - new games will be more affordable, as $60!=€60.
@TheEnigmaticT or anyone else in know: Are we talking about completely new games, straight of the virtual presses, or are we talking games that are newer than the currently "old" games, but that have still been out for a while.

I will be thrilled as long as:
- all games remain DRM free
- the effort to bring good old games here never ceases
- all new games come with goodies
- the prices remain low
- the site usability and speed and number of features is further increased
Since nothing really seems to speak against these points now I decide to be thrilled for the moment.
However one thing: Get the missing expansions from EA as soon as possible! Don't waste time with war in Russia.

Newer games are good, I bought Two Worlds (the first one) from GOG and it wasn't an old game then. Its one of my favourite RPGs, prefer it to TW2. I have faith in GOG.

Although nothing is ever certain, I imagine GOG will continue to stick with their DRM free stance on selling products. That is one of the core principles that has helped build this community and create such a loyal fanbase. Considering they have already stood up to publishers regarding regional pricing, both for older games and removing limitations on Witcher 2 (GOG version), I have faith they will continue to stick to their principles.

Hm, more recent games and higher price points? Suddenly games like VtM: Bloodlines and Neverwinter Nights 2 and its add-ons become a distinct possibility. :)

If they stick true to their word then the actual pricing hopefully will reflect that.
