At last - Good Old Games, the lovely, cheapie, DRM-free (DON'T SAY A BLOODY BORING WORD ABOUT BLOODY BORING DRM) download service specifically dedicated to olde worlde classics of PC gaming - and often out of print ones at that - has finally thrown open its doors to the whole wide world. It's no longer a closed beta, but an open beta - by which it presumably means 'actually launched but "beta" sounds cooler'. Nonetheless - woo!

Easily my favorite adventure game. Everything about it is top notch.

Right now I do. I've got far cry 2 and it's a bit good.

All those classic games pictured are great. Some are ugly, some buggy as hell, some were annoyingly difficult and some were all three and more. But they are solid blows to the head as you get mugged down memory lane and as such they are all great. I'll be there once this ridiculous deluge of fine games slows, but not yet.

Shogo:MAD, FreeSpace 1 and 2, Op Flash, Castles II, Giants, Fallouts.......
