The true selling point here, though, is that all of the games are completely DRM free and available by direct download through the site. Weekly sales bring down the prices on some of the old games, as well. Prices on the classics currently range from $5.99 for games like Fallout 2 to $9.99 for games like Perimeter. The site updates every Tuesday with a handful of new titles, and there are more games due "soon," including Soldiers: Heroes of World War 2, Operation Flashpoint, and Colin McRae Rally 2005. Though the service, currently in beta, is still young, it already shows signs of being a big deal for PC gamers.ĭrawing from a pool of Interplay and Codemasters Windows classics, GOG currently features the likes of Fallout, Fallout 2, Freespace, Giants: Citizen Kabuto, Descent, and many more. But standing out from the pack is a new site called Good Old Games that focuses on bringing old, time-tested games into the downloadable era with low prices and no DRM. With digital distribution becoming more and more prominent, online stores hawking downloadable games are a dime a dozen.
