Ditto, although it also gets in the way while trying to read web comics while having burritos, or play point & click games, or anything else for that matter... The runnier the beans, the harder it is... Eventually have to give up and just watch a new TB video on some interesting game while eating for 20 minutes...

When you love the word "insomnia".

... when you think that any game after 2001 is "too new, all-about-graphics and without story"

yeah no
even games from 2005 are already a decade old by now

and the sims 2 is 11 years old
by my count those are old enough to be called old

You convince Steam users ON THEIR service/client/forums/chat, that GOG version of a game is superior of Steam's, and you actually give it away to them for free! (Back when Guilty Gears were ousted from GoG and shortly became a Steam exclusive, i linked my torrent with GoG version of Guilty Gear games to them and urged them NOT buy them from Steam, because of the developer's faqing of gog partnership; which reminds me, i have to delete the torrent and still didn't)

... you keep going back to 19xx classics while still having a huge backlog.

... when you discover the power of Mahayo

... when you have an 8-core 4GHz processor with 32GB of RAM, 8+TB of disk storage, and a 2GB video card but spend 100s of hours playing games from 15-20 years or more ago which are so small and insignificant in comparison to the supercomputer you have (relatively speaking), that several of the games would now fit together in your CPU's cache but which you could barely get running on your computer back in 1995 due to system memory constraints without using QEMM for hours to optimize CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT.


It's kind of funny to think about... my first PC had 4MB of RAM which cost me about $400 at the time, and my current CPU has 16MB of cache in it and the CPU cost me $180. Oh my... how time flies and technology improves!

..you feel a bit old looking at those game's release dates, but also an happy child while playing them! :D

...you rise at midnight and gloat over your library by the pale light of the moon.

... you start cosplaying as GOG bear.

... you give homeless people gift codes.

Lol.. both are good ^^

you know that you are a gogger when you have 3 games in your giveaway, you press f5 like you had a seizure to check on those also when you make a pinnacle profile for running in alone in the dark and it doesn't work like you intented. It just does not. It's hard if one has some i would like to try it. =)

Not bad. How about...you have some serious plans to buy a very expensive gaming rig to last you the next 5+ years, even though 90% of the games you normally play are from gog.com, many of which could probably be run by modern solar-powered pocket calculators. (also true story :p)

...when you become all giddy for old game re-releases, even the mediocre ones.

"What the fuck?! All I want is some fucking booze, goddamnit!"
...you've got five stars. ;)
