Lol. This place looks pretty cool, and i have another question.
When I buy the game, say Unreal Tournament '99 or '04.
Do i get the full game with multiplayer, and I can still play with other people online?
Stupid question I know, but I gotta be sure. :)

For UT 2004 you need to request a key from GOG but they'll send it fast and afterwards you can play online.

Not a stupid question at all. Not owning those games, I am nonetheless 99% sure when I say that the multiplayer is still completely functional. You might want to go to the subforum dealing with the specific game to check on this. Let me go take a peek.
Also, a huge welcome to our little community!

Ok, how long would it take for the key to show up?
And thanks for helping me out. :)

This is GoG, my friend, not Direct2Drive. I bet you'd have the key in a day or two, no more.

Just be aware that the folks at GOG don't typically work weekends, so if you send the request on a Friday or the weekend it may be a few extra days before you get a response.

You can certainly buy GOGs from Canada with Paypal.
If you don't have a credit card, buy a prepaid one and link it to your Paypal account. This will let you buy instantly for eternity.

Just to add more details to the previous answers :
For most games requiring a serial to play online, you'll have to manually request the key to gog support team. They will send you the key a few days afterward.
But for some games, including UT99 and UT2k4, the CD key is already bundled with the installer. From your point of view, you have absolutely nothing to do : download the installer, run it, then run the game and you can play online directly. It's that simple, it's GOG magic !

Actually, no, for UT2k4 it's best you request a key for online play as the one that comes preistalled is the one that's used on all copies of the game sold through GOG and so is not unique.
