It's our birthday, and we'll rap if we want to!

'Cause you know our rhymes are wack
Feel the beat--you can't go back
It's a free game rap attack
If you wanna win then take a crack

GOG.com, as you possibly know, has turned five. In celebration of us turning five, we like to have gifts for you--let's face it, if not for you, we wouldn't be here. So check out the video with our mad phat beatz yo, laid by MC Enigmatic and the famous DJ Russkat, and then if you're inspired, feel free to drop us lyrics of your own! We'll collect all of the best lyrics and award up to four people 5 GOG.com games of their choice in exchange for their permission to use their lyrics in a proper GOG Birthday Rap video. We may even spring for proper moving pictures for the next one!

Please send us all of your submissions (by which we mean: leave a comment below in the forums) by Friday 20 September 2013 at 0900 Eastern time to enter into the contest.

I like G. O. G.
And I can not lie,
You other brothers can't deny,
That when a great old game walks in with that,
Old time fun, and those 8-bit tunes in your face,
You get sprung, wanna pull out our mice,
Cause you noticed that game was stuffed,
Deep in your chair yo sittin',
You're hooked and you can't stop playin'!
Oh bay-be, I wanna just play-ya,
And snap some screenies,
My homeboys tried to warn me,
But that game I bought makes me so nerd-y,
Oh-oh bump my buttons,
You say you wanna play that thang?

Well play on! Play on!
Cause you ain't an average game-nerd.

I've seen you gamin'
To hell with mad lasin'
Game's tough, rough,
Got me tappin' keys like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of them board games,
Sayin' flat tables are the thing,

Take the average basement nerd and ask him that,
GOG's packin' much back!

So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Got your girlfriend on GOG? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to game that! (Game that!)
GOG that good ole' game!
GOG brings it back.
i'm a gamer not a rapper so this site might be
the best place to get the games that i would deem
classics, i'm talking 'bout the rts's and crpgs
if it's good and it's old then it might be
available and not to mention D-R-M free
and that alone is a D-R-E-A-M for me
if your looking to get away from triple A's
get it at good old games and enjoy your day.
I see the profundity of my lyrics have been lost, forgotten in the apathetic whirlwind of modern life. Such is the lot of great art...

Mrstarker: A birthday rap? What are you, five? :P
Best...line...EVAH ;-D
There have been a lot of games that I've wanted to play/
they were all on PC and from back in the day/
from classic RPG's, adventures, and shooters/
watch my buddies play Duke and see their first hooters/
Now that I'm older and ever the wiser/
and some might argue I'm a bit of a miser/
I've found GOGCOM and gave them my ducats/
loving every retro beep buying games by the bucket/
they're very inexpensive, don't you dare call them cheap/
my library keeps growing and I'm losing more sleep/
but every minute's worth it playing games from the past/
all thanks to GOGCOM making classics a blast!
Hey guys, nice contest ;) but I wonder if I can use other beat or its imperative use the same beat from your video-clip?
I stay inside the house,
Much like a cat-fearing mouse,
But a sudden urge of gaming arouse,
I turned on the PC like it was my spouse!

Looking for video games I wanna play,
For my boredom holds me in dismay,
There is no game that can make my day,
So I head to GOG, keeping the rest at bay.

I see more titles than I bargained for,
Jeez, this is much better than running to another store,
And the games have no DRM at it's core,
Now that's how you bloody score!

I run for my money to throw at the screen,
But that doesn't do anything so I want to scream!
The games are so good, it feels like a dream,
Now onward to buy games where I can shoot a laser beam!

Well nothing bad in giving a try. I am still having fun thinking of rhymes. Just do it no matter how silly it sounds.
It's the site formerly known as Good Old Games, I shall tell how how it gained it's fame.

Fighting for the rights of gaming consumers, bringing back old games to new computers.

You are bringing nostalgia, with games of every genre, your mission has come far, I'm glad I found ya!

Dedicated to making every game DRM free, you simply can't ignore GOG.

Yo homies! What-the-fuck-is-this ?
I be spending ma dough to be put on a leash ?
No way! Fuck that! 'm having none of that shit
Leashes be for bitches without no mother wit

I be packing ma glock*, ma PC and clean socks
Scudin' outta here to a crib that rocks
Fuck the DRM's, the ex bones and piss trees
'm-crashin' the partei down at Gee-Oh-Gee

*chorus*

I'm fly cuz i'm fly, y'all ain't cuz you ain't
Yeah, that be my joystick. 1-2-3 FAINT!

*chorus*

Gee-Oh-Gee-Oh-My-Oh-My
You-look-so-good-and-i'm-so-fly
The crew be thight, the bling stackin'-in flood
on my way out the door no fool is after my blood

So i'm keeping my soul, my true and my games
Gettin' lots of love without no walks of shame
Havin'-a master blast, with ma R-P-G's
and ma P-and-C's-from-Gee-Oh-Gee

This be da place, to get me a dream
DJ Tea be da man i do buziness with
"Hang on" Yeah? "What about steamy gleam?"
Yo dawg, those fools can suck mobyg dick.

*chorus* X3

Yeah. What up. Yo. Et all.

Go, go, go, go, go, go

Because on GOG everything is DRM-free.

To be continued ...

Yo. Check it.

G to the O to the Uppercase G,
5 Years in the game they've been lettin em' see:
Bringin' all the classics, keepin it ole' school
Steam gettin all nervous, they be actin a fool

Updating their journals while venturin' forth,
While the witcher heads smack into Arroyo up north.
Fightin the fight against Deadly RM,
While poppin out titles that you know are a gem.

See some Sci-Fi, your system's in for a shock -
Try a space quest and then drop it like it's spock.
Anotha year anotha sale, they ain't ever gonna fail
Scuse' me while I clean up mah backlog trail

A Rampage of Retro, this city of GOG
filled with machines of a certain hog
It's so unreal, It's hocus pocus,
with games like these I can't even focus

Get it on with your garrett, the arrows you'll bear it
Dishonored or not I'm sure you'll tear it.
Nuke em' with duke and head straight to the moon
or go barkin' with clive for some unholy rune

Half a decade, I still can't believe
the game revolution that they can concieve
Happy birthday mah nerdlets, you've earned a hot beat.
To 5 years of GOG, the 1337 of the 1337.

-DV

Well,
This is what i wanna tell
playing classic's is fun as hell
make your move in G O G
sweet your taste as you please

Dont melt ya brain with shiny games
cause G O G gives history!
Wrap it up
Along with this melody
GIve me 5, shut up
you're not a kid
you used to be
but G O G made you free
of marketing.

So many years...
oh! 5
it just feels like has been a while
keep it up
cause we are pleased
My GOG Song

Now, now, now, it's big number SIX
And GOG.com is really a top pick
Dirt cheap games, any wayyou want
You can save the world, or just blow it up

But that's not all, you get some free stuff
Soundtracks, artwork, and big ol' manuals
Big plans or dumb fun
Who could ask for more

In conclsuion I say this
Happy birthday GOG
Happy number SIX
And may you see many, many more

Now bring us some games
Old games, new games, we don't really care
As long as you do it YOUR way
No cheats, no scams, and no DRM
Now if you'll excuse me
I'm off to play The Guild
