Is there a way to set it to Alphabetically and fecking leave it set at that, because its beyond annoying having it set to Bestselling as default, only to have to click to set it to "By Title", then click on a game, then return back to the list to find its on fecking Bestselling again.

Why have Best Selling as default? If they sell that well, we probably have them already, we dont need to have them at the top of the page.

What would also be nice is an Alphabet Tab, so we could just click on a letter and have just a list of the games beginning with that letter, come up.

Thanks for reading.
Not sure if it helps, but what I do is open new tabs for each game I want to check. That way, I don't refresh the tab with the list, and I don't have to reorder it.

Did you ever have to play 'quick draw' with the damned thing?

Usually I sort alphabetically, then I come back, it is reset to bestselling, then I have to play a super move and click fast game with it, otherwise the drop box closes too fast, and I'm left with that damned default sort.

I use an older version of Opera, all else is up to date, but it's like I have to play a game sometimes, just to make a purchase!

yeah mate, I could do that, but either way, it will still always be defaulting to best Selling when ever I come here. :)

Never had that problem, but sometime when scrolling it goes too far in either direction and it can be a pita to get it on to what I want, its easily the worst browse facility on a game shop i have seen so far.

I've been doing the 'new tab' thing too.

It isn't a deal breaker, just a funny, little aggravation :-)

..and even across the giant sea, many things were the same, and all just scratched their heads and had another drink... Cheers!
Might be worthwhile making a request to GOG for a new account option to store the default sorting preference in the GOG website requests section. Don't have a link handy, and GOG eats my posts when I post them anyway, but it's under Support somewhere IIRC. Hope this helps.

Thanks, good idea.
There already is a wishlist entry for it. It's probably fairly easy to solve this with a userscript, but it would be a much better solution to do it server-side.
Voted, apparently it must not bug people too much, only 5 votes lol :)
In the meantime, here are two quick hacks for Firefox/GreaseMonkey users:

Sort games by title by default
Remember sort order for games

(edit)
Just in case it isn't obvious -- these two should not be used at the same time. :)

Thanks drennan, I'm testing the second script out right now and it works well.
Just hit thread again, and saw a place to vote. Thanks, will try to get the word out.
Sure as hell glad I didn't get into marketing, misjudged demographic completely.
