Just a quick note to say a big THANKS to the gog team (autocorrection rightfully insists for 'god' team ;) ). I'm the old 82' generation. Still remember few Atari Logo command lines. Brought up on screwdriver & commodore, neighbour having black amiga (with black monitor - who remembers that?) and later starting with my own pc 486. This was a time when the very first computer magazines came out (having those 80's fantasy style drawings on front covers). A bit too technical at the time to understand (like ZX Spectrum). Back in the day when we had 'Top Secret' before 'Secret Service'.
I didn't even have to play all these games, I could just read about them and indulge myself in a daydream. Don't want to sound like another: 'my times were better'... but... they had just different flavour. Back in the day when it was legal to copy games in any computer shop using x-copy software. Sadly these days won't ever come back...
...And how the world turns? The team... the legend... people who decided to bring those memories back to life. Glimpsed through the website, here and there, saw... Alone in the dark... Wolf3D... Another World... are you kidding me? "Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?". No 'Flashback quest for identity'? That's fine, but received immediately a free kickass POLISH game - Teenagent (I mispronounced it for many years as '10-agent')? Really? Who are these people? Any documentaries available on them? Interviews? I mean... Jesus... "thank you" is not a word!
I could easily download these games via torrent. I've purchased almost 80 games (some were added for free), most had discounts and they were worth every penny - I hope this will help to continue the project. Please remember about the Mac users too (Oh Fallout 1 how I missed my chance to purchase you) :) I like what you do and good luck to you: GOG/GOD TEAM!!!!
P.S.
And please don't die yet. In case of money struggle just let us know (make a banner as twice as big as Jimmy made on Wikipedia), I'll help!
