I'd forgot about GOG. I joined when they were still in beta,wondering if it was going to work or if they (and my games) were going to disappear in a year.
Retrieved my password,logged in and theres my games still setting on my shelf. I'll work the sale over pretty good next weekend. Thanks.

I would like to bring to your attention the website Good Old Games (www.gog.com), which is currently having a 50% off sale. This site is so cool for old school gamers because it sells all of the old hits for pennies on the dollar. Most of their games are like $5 and right now they are selling all of the classics for $2.99. It is all completely DRM free and this is a really good company that has my respect.

I'm like a kid in a candy store, revisiting all of my favorite old games that my parents couldn't afford to buy me when I was younger, now all for $3 a piece.

Anyways, they sell old school games going back to 1996 even, games like Fallout1 & 2, Baldurs Gate, Neverwinter Nights, Redneck Rampage, Descent, Age of Empires etc etc, all retooled to work perfectly on your newer Windows computer right out of the box. Revisit all your favorite games for a few bucks a pop. Check out some of their current games, if you have $10 to spend and want a trip down memory lane than go see these guys, they are good people:

Thinking about buying MW3. But I dont play online and the compaign mode in the older ones wasnt worth 60 bucks. Right now Im playing New Vegas and Skyrim. A lil Ace Combat Assault Horizon (not as good as the older ones but still decent)

I have it for PC, I played the first 2 levels and then havn't touched it since, maybe I didn't give it a chance but for me it wasn't anything new, just waves of guys to kill then move to the next stage, it's almost on rails. Battlefield 3 on the other hand is one of the most amazingly realistic (looking) games I have played in the military genre though and that has been keeping my attention.

Got The Witcher2 last night and it is amazing. The graphics are way better than Skyrim and so far it seems like a great game. Also saints Row the 3rd is an awesome and sort of silly game to waste some time on.

I don't think buying MW3 is worth it without online. I only bought Black Ops and the campaign sucked. The only good thing about that game was multiplayer. And Skyrim, I'm about 50 hours in, game of the year for sure. I like it a lot more than New Vegas.

I've been on Skyrim a lot lately. Havent played mw3 or bf3 at all. Need to get back on Rage.

Mw3 is really good tbh, also worth trying out imo - personally it gives me a break from WoW atm... (oh yea that and skyrim ofc!)

[Mordred]

@Seattlelite: PETA are retarded, what else is new?

Skyrim is excellent by the way, spent 24 hours on it so far and there's still sooo much to do. My nominee for GOTY.

Since I finally bought a computer capable of gaming this weekend I been playing MW3 and Tropico 4 torrents. Definately wouldn't have paid for MW3, it's so boring and predicatable. Shoot 2 waves of enemies, proceed to next area, defeat 2 waves of enemies, proceed to next area, rinse and repeat the whole time. At least the first few levels (which is as far as i've gotten).

Yea the campaign isn't that great. The online multiplayer is better than black ops imo. Larger maps and the people I play with are team players instead of rambo one mans. I also like the new game modes they have.

After two years of very minimal playing, I finally finished the main quests in Fallout 3 earlier today. Next up will probably be skyrim.
