I think it is both for me. Creating a private library of relatively interesting games from where I can pick up games to play, in my own time and pace. Hence, I also very much prefer they are DRM-free. After all, I wouldn't want to create a private library of books either where I'd have to call the book store every time I intended to pick up and read one book from there.

To answer your other question, many of the games I've bought from GOG I've played before as retail versions, but if we are talking about strictly about the GOG versions, so far I've finished only one (Gorky 17), and I'm almost done with Baldur's Gate + ToSC.

Maybe a dozen or so I've played somewhat, more or less. The rest, I haven't even touched yet (at least the GOG versions). But still, I buy only games that I intend to play, even if I am unsure whether I will ever have time to actually do it for that particular game.

In a way it might make more sense to buy games only when you actually intend to play that game, but that does not necessarily fit the scheduling of discount promos, and then look what happened to e.g. Space Rangers 1-2, if you waited too long. :)

Probably Dotur.

UPDATE: In addition, we mentioned that the user who will make the 6 millionth download will receive the whole GOG.com catalogue for free! It was not a prank and the user who should start "wrestling" with his virtual shelf full of awesome classics is Dotur who downloaded Icewind Dale 2 exactly on 2011-09-29 at 07:39:43 EDT. Congratulations! We'll send you the gift certificate with all the games from the catalogue.

Or perhaps Xyem.

I have it on good authority, that after your 300th GOG purchase TET will let you borrow his hat for a week.

No, he's playing Carmageddon, but not quite sure that it's "completely compatible" with all the test systems yet.

Yeah, but admit that taunting people in this thread is more fun than playing whatever it is that you're playing:)

I think I've got a bit less than you. Not counting the free ones, I've got 16

218 here. DAMN! My e-peen is ever so slightly smaller than yours.

82, including free ones. Hm, hm.

including free games 297 eep didnt know i had so many.

Aye, makes sense. Although, being more stringent with my budget (even considering the low prices here), I try to cultivate the habit of only buying games I really want to play in the very near future. In cases where I bought a game with an intention of playing them in a more distant future, I regretted them. There's always a better game to occupy my limited free time. Or sometimes there's an instabuy, during a promo where the price of a good classis is simply too low to let it pass, but I always get around to playing those.

Gonna buy another GOG, just so it's even SMALLER. >:D
