Anyone can apply to be affiliated to GOG. It's quite simple, actually. Just need to sign a contract.

Do they need blood samples too?

Oh, an angry internet man. Are you from RPGCodex, perhaps? :-)

I can live without verenial disease thank you.

VD became a game dev sometime ago.

Check his site, maybe he will finally finish that game of his...

Ummm... Guys, truth to be told, too many people from gog are starting to leave the 'I'll give you intelligent arguments and remain silent" and fall into "fanboii!!" category, which... Well, isn't a good thing, actually :D I see quite a few anti-codex posts here, even thou it's obvious that there are just a few people opposing GoG. Generalisation tends to be a big no-no if not used right...

<OT>
I have actually heard about this some time ago and completely forgotten it... Thanks for the reminder, it looks even more awesome now
</OT>

Is it Thursday yet?

I will be a happy guy when Thursday finally comes.

Same here. Or maybe my grandchildren will be...
"Grandpa!! Age of Decadence is out!!"
/me dies with a smile ....

Oh, and not some infectious disease you get from sleeping with people of a low moral fiber?

Just a bad choice of initials I suppose :D

I still think the RPG codex has VD.

As I see the main difference between us and you guys is that we usually like to back our claims, you know, it helps the argumentation a lot.
Snip from one guy:
"What I do wonder about, is that the very same people who seethe and rage against non-free DLC, paid "premium content", microtransactions and other evil schemes (involving at least a minimal amount of creative content produced in process) of greedy corporate pigs to rob honest folk of their hard-earned cash - are all lining up like puppies to give GOG a sloppy blowjob for a chance to pay them cash for software created a long time ago by long-dead companies and people who went their own ways and won't get a cent for it, software that has been openly (if not technically "legally") available for free for a decade and more everywhere, with GOG's own involvement being limited to bundling a DOSbox shortcut with it. Is that an unhealthy fanboyish infatuation due to GOG opening up with The Most Holy Fallout, or plain hypocrisy?"
You may also notice that he isn't criticizing GOG per se.
