Has anyone bought any games from them? I am interested in buying some older games like the Tex Murphy games and the Gabriel Knight games and was wondering if they play ok?
 
I have, work perfectly. However I will warn you the games I bought on there dont seem as fun as when I played them years ago:o

just to echo the above 99% work perfectly on windows 7 but just don't seem to have the same attention span for them. If you have errors or questions the forums for each game are quite good for mods, tweaks or just help in the game if you don't want the resort to guides or can't find them given the age of some of the games.

only game i've had issues with is commandos.
 
yeah i managed to finish under a killing moon and pandora directive from there as never finished them when i was a kid, but then everything else i bought i was bored in 10 mins lol.
 
I was really looking forward to replaying dungeon keeper 2 from gog but when i read the small print ati users only get software mode whereas nvidia users get hardware accelrated :(
I reinstalled my old cd copy and have to agree with unknowist in that it just wasnt the same, i think it would have been better if they had of done hardware acceleration for ati users too.
Can only hope and pray for a dk3 1 day/year/century
 
I'm finding it hard to believe modern pcs wont be able to run well a game made in 1999, even just in software. HL1 was released a year earlier, and GPUs were optional for it - from the sounds of things, it's the same with DK2. I'd love to see a video showing the differences.
