If you’ve been hanging around for a while, especially in the <a href=”"[url=http://www.gog.com/games">games]http://www.gog.com/games">games[/url] tab</a>, you may have noticed that the growing number of items on our virtual shelf was inching closer and closer to our very first thousand - lo and behold, just this week we made it through our first 1k.

We could start off by thanking the Academy, our moms, and hoping for world peace - and it's not that we don't want to say all those things, but before we do, we want to thank the most important people that made it possible - all of YOU. It may sound a bit turgid and you might not believe that we're tearing up a little as we click "publish" on this piece of news, but you guys are the ones that make GOG.com what it is and our reason to continue bringing you more great games.

Before we break out the fruit punch, though, we want to honor those of you who almost caught up with us. We dug through our records and picked fifty users that have the most boxes on their own virtual shelves.







Let's all give an alphabetically ordered round of applause to:

Antarian, astrugar710, atomsword, AutumnYears, baketomato, Barry_Woodward, benjam47, budejovice, CuriousTwoAtGOG, Darthmort, Disciple_of_Doom, djr155, DonCorleon, Gersen, gorrrrrr, Heirgeir, howardtduck2005, ilcollezionista, jabba1971, JDelekto, KajQrd, kiwy, Kodijack, kotokimura, Lafazar, liquidBass, lobo_1, Loenas, maweball, mrkgnao, MTR77, Murfallo, mwmwm, n0nam3, OlK76, onthemike, palyea, Pantoprazol, sbaylus, Serpico, ShadowWulfe, Silvanus2004, soulroar, tippete, TrevWar, turbond, vasyl, VuA, xckx, and ZombieGum.








We will be contacting these guys personally for T-shirt sizes and mailing addresses for a little, personalized thank-you. We are off to celebrate - but before we go, here's to another thousand digital boxes on the GOG.com shelf!

Barry_Woodward: Thank you kindly, GOG. I have every game on here except for the four that were pulled before I joined. Vote for them to return:

Colin McRae Rally 2005
ObsCure
Republic: The Revolution
TOCA Race Driver 3
I thought I had a lot of games on here clocking in at just under 910, whole set is quite impressive.
Also +1 on bringing back the other games if/when possible.
Congrats everyone with this milestone!
Congratulation
Hope to see more.
Congratulations GOG. Well deserved.
Wow I didn't realise there would be more than 50 people who had more than me. Guess I've not been buying hard enough I have 896, guess people have been buying well into the 900s, worse buying addictions than mine out there it seems.

Congratulations folks, you've obviously been buying above and beyond.

I can't help but think GOG helped themselves along to the 1000 mark a little by splitting some game packs, but I guess they were individual games anyway in a bundle so no harm no foul.

Now towards the next 1000 games and my next 896 :)
And that's one of the reasons why we continue to support you, GOG! :)

Goooooooooo, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOG!!! ;D

Titanium: The sun was in my eyes. How do you expect me to forum properly with the sun in my eyes.

Grargar: Easy. By telling the sun to kindly fuck off.
I see what you did there and I approve

You know what they say, "money makes the world go round". I think that artists with some really cool games have kept pushing even when others' keep pulling on their wallets.

Then again, there could be those waiting for the seasonal sales, weekend charms, new and pre-releases and grab a few good deals (or free) when you can get them.

Cheers!
I actually have 1162 digital boxes (1110 games + 52 movies) on my shelf.

You're definitely a winner too! We have to be careful though, lest we be labeled with being "eHoarders".

Wow all the movies too. I have 22 but I haven't bought more movies since I think there is only so many about games before you want a bit of variety. Yes there is the odd indie movie not game related but still.

You must have one hell of a good paying job never the less and a fair bit of time I see you often on the forums. What's the secret :)

That said I have a huge Blu-ray collection and huge music collection so perhaps I've not been putting as much resources into games as yourself.
Well done with all those games guys you'll never get bored! :)
Congrats GoG!
Here's to 1000 more and beyond. Congrats, GOG, and thanks for everything you've done to better DRM-free gaming and gaming as a whole.
Congrats on making it to a 1000 and congrats to all the bigtime customers who bought all (well ok most!!) of the games :D
