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!

So what games did I miss so far, last thing I saw was Zork before I went to college.

mudd1: So, how did your intellect fare against the plot of Primer?

Enebias: Never heard about that. Shall I give it a check?
Let me put it this way, I thought quite highly of my ability to cope with time travel plots. I usually spot plot holes in those stories quite quickly. Primer, however, utterly beat me.

There are timelines on the Internet that helped me to make sense of things after the fact but looking at them before watching the movie would be major cheating of course.

I also like how it's advertised as "Donnie Darko for grown-ups". So if you like time travel movies and you also like a challenge, you should definitely at least rent it if you can find it.

Siegor: Anyone who quotes the Legacy of Cain series desserves a +1 !

stg83: I concur, I wish they would do a reboot of Soul Reaver: Legacy of Kain like they recently did with Tomb Raider.
That would be nice, as long as they get Amy Hennig on that creative team.

King's Quest 1-3 and Ultima 1-3. Still on item four.

Stooner: wooot, the counter for M&M was on 0, stalled.. I thought it was broken so I refreshed and went back to 41:20!...
Technically speaking, it's a potentially an UNlimited edition if people keep clicking + and/or buying it :p

Well, that sound interesting! Thanks for the hint! I'll check it out. :)
As in slowing down I mean the timer is actually going down faster than it's going up. Saturation of sales.

IAmSinistar: Yeah, but how many times a day can you do that? ;)
Depends on how effectively you're being motivated to keep going ;-P

EDIT: And to think that I didn't have this in mind when I posted ;-P

sirchaox1224: As far as I'm concerned, there are only two options:

1. Work
2. Watch the counter on GOG slowly dwindle down, as I feel my time on earth slipping away

Every time the GOG counter increments, my lifetime decrements by the same amount.
You're in dire need of enriching your life options :-P

Oh yes indeed, Amy Hennig doing the reboot would be so cool. Better yet have the naughty dog team do it under her creative guidance, wouldn't that be an ideal world. :)

This a inverse Insomnia sale... More the game is popular, more it will stay.... Instead of more the game is unpopular the more it will stay and stay and keane ....

In my case I think it was because my connection is dropping... hopefully it'll be limited this time...
Hm, I hate it when games Keane like that.
