There's more than just buying games incredibly cheap to our DRM-Free Time Machine Sale! We're ready to pass its steering wheel (or rather the control console) to YOU. Each game in the sale is offered for a limited time only, and how long we stay in its year is up to you! Each time you see a new game on sale you can vote to either add or subtract 1 second from the timer. Each time you buy a game, you add 3 seconds to the time of it being on sale. We begin with 1983's Zork, bundled with the rest of the Zork Anthology of 6 games in total, for only $1.79. How long will it last on the front page? You'll be the judge. What comes next, as the game of 1984? Let's find out!

Let's take a trip in GOG.com's DRM-Free Time Machine Sale! 30 great games from 1983-2013 will be available up to 90% off, and you get to decide how long each game is on sale. Ready? The technomagical gateway to 1983 opens NOW!

* "Again?", you might ask, "when did they ever do the time warp?". Well, once you embark on a journey through time, all becomes relevant and there's absolutely no guarantee that what you are doing, you are doing for the first time. In fact, that's highly improbable. After all, time isn't linear. It's more like a giant wobbly-bobbly goggy-boggy ball of gaming awesome!

This long stretch of Deus Keane has reminded me that I have never finished this game. Every time I have tried to start it, I've had PC problems. Someone buy it and tell me how it is. Preferably, enough to put it over the 30 minute mark. I need the feedback.
Hmm, now why didn't I call it when I posted that everyone should go to bed when Deus Ex came up? Was thinking it'll be over 6 hours, and there it goes (well, in some 5 min now).

Same thing happened to me with Baldur's Gate I; some games are cursed when played by some people I guess.
I'm hoping Heretic Kingdoms will be the 2004 game, although it probably won't be with my luck.
This whole Time Machine sale reminds of the nightmare of a boring class where you're staring at the clock and instead of ticking forward it appears to be going backwards, except this time its actually Real..

EDIT: Not to say that the sale is a nightmare which is anything but, infact it is a very cool and innovative way to do a promo, so kudos to the GOG team. There has been more then enough groaning so we should show them some support as well, not that they really need it as they will be to busy rolling around in the cash from sales of Deus Ex alone to notice. :P

Oh, how we groaned when SC2K lasted for over 3 hours. That was practically speedy compared to the almost six hours that DX has been on sale... and still going!
What are the chances we have In Cold Blood next? (or maybe Etherlords)

Hence why you don't stare at the clock. :P

I've been doing other stuff and only checked the site occasionally during the sale.

It's only been 6 hours? Could've sworn it's been 6 years.
I'm starting to see why Thief 1 and Shock 2 weren't featured in this sale. Having the holy trinity of Thief ('98), Shock 2 ('99) and Deus Ex (2000) in a row would have prolonged this sale until the last star falls from the night.

I would be sleeping then and be awake by next title ;D

Imagine Neverwinter Nights... never ending
Wow. I just got home from a 5 hour shift at work and was worried that I'd have missed a bunch of sales.


Seems the power of Keane has saved me. :D

Tpiom: Oh god now. Don't speak that way! Don't give them any ideas!
Not to forget the estimated 3296 last-minute trolls who have spared their seconds for, exactly, the last minutes of a game to push it again.... B) No, I'm not one of them. Really.

Yes, just under six hours. I have been listening to the Pac Man theme for this entire time, and the timer is under six hours... 5 hours and 43 minutes in fact.
