    Thanks fog, but I already got the exact same thing myself from there earlier today! :(

    Do you still have the receipt so I can swap it for something else? Alternatively, I'd settle for a PS4...... ;)

    2-3 pc games.. you have to sign up for gog. to get em, but I've been using em for a while.. no biggy.

    you don't have to download it either straight away, just add it to ya shelf of games.

    Thanks fog have signed up.
  • I don't have a gaming PC. Could I have socks instead? Or one of those jumpers with a reindeer on?

    Cheers fog.

    They're now on my shelf and the end of my ever increasing 'to-play' list.

    You don't really need a gaming PC with most of the stuff from GOG...it's mostly old games optimized for more modern PCs. But the one I'm using is about 7 years old without any updates to graphics cards or anything and it plays most games I get there fine!

    Just picked up Planescape Torment for ?4.99 as well, so I'm looking forward to finally playing through that at some point! :)

    I'd just like to add that after i signed up, and proceeded through the checkout with fog's 3 games, i was pleasantly surprised to see that my game shelf contained another 7 free games :-o

    So in effect, fog has given me, not 3, but TEN free games :D

    And that's not all...

    ... to make matters even better, i found another five free games, so i am now the happy owner of no less than 15 free games.

    These games are, in alphabetical order...

    Beneath a Steel Sky
    Dragonsphere
    Fallout
    Fallout 2
    Fallout Tactics
    Flight of the Amazon Queen
    Lure of the Temptress
    Stargunner
    Teenagent
    Treasure Adventure Game
    Tyrian 2000
    Ultima IV
    Ultima Worlds of Adventure 2: Martian Dreams
    Warsow
    Worlds of Ultima: The Savage Empire

    So once again, a BIG thanks to fog!

    oops pipped to the post.

    They also email you when they do a giveaway or have a big sale.
  • edited December 2013
    I would thank fog, but he charged me ?5 for this information in an e-mail prior to posting it on WoS. :(

    Seriously though, GOG are brilliant and I've bought dozens of games from them over the last few years. I had already bought Fallout 1 (in 2010!), but nabbed the other 2 freebies.

    Never used GOG before. Is it good?

    Also I am still using a very old laptop right now, is it still good enough for those games?

    GOG is great. No DRM, just quality old games at reasonable prices with fairly regular sales (I think this is their second sale this month which is a bit unusual)

    Dunno if your laptop will be up to some of them but take a look at some of the games you'd be interested in and scroll down to just above the reviews to see the requirements for the game.
    Oh, no. Every time you turn up something monumental and terrible happens.
    I don’t think I have the stomach for it.

    Oh yeah, thanks fog. Already had the first one from a previous freebie sale so just grabbed the other 2. I think I have Tactics on disc somewhere but never played it.
