I’d have to agree with Rarst here: Although TIM3 is still as good as it was, I found an old Simulator Zoo-esque game (not the Microsoft one) a while back that I had played back in 95 (thought it was amazing at the time) and was disappointed to realise that actually, the graphics weren’t *that* great.

Still: I’d be interested in looking up some recommended/top games and trying them out It’s good that this project is coming out!

This is going to be epic, I can see myself using alot of money on GOG…. and that’s saying alot when the games go for 5 - 10 USD ;P

Old games are the best! I’m definitely going to add some of these games to my collection.

Classic games can’t really compare to today’s offerings. But for 5 bucks, I’m all for it. I can go without expensive coffee for a day ;).

I think that old DOS-games sites (and older console or Commodore-Atary ROM sites) can offer the same for free.

Or may be not the same, but I saw many great games on those sites.

It seems that infamous Underdogs still alive, for example

I would pay $5 for a classic DRM-free game. I haven’t looked at the site to see if we are talking about Windows ports (which likely won’t work on my Ubuntu system) or emulation (which likely would work on my Ubuntu system).

Classics are good as long as they stay in memory. Installing and trying to play very old game… usually sucks.
