Lol I just discovered gog,I mean I finally bought a game from there,Simon the Sorcerer.I am pro-retail games,I prefer to buy games on DVD with their box and manual but I just took a chance since my best friend’s card had some of my money and decided to buy the game from gog.

So gog.com actually let’s you play old game with perfect synch meaning NO compatibility problems,right?

Because I’ve been meaning to play a lot of old games but many of them had compatibility problems.For exame the Space Quest collection that I have on original DVD has some problems with my Windows 7 PC and my Windows Vista laptop.And I got Broken Sword 1 and 2 DVD collection today and there are still some stupid problems playing it on the PC.

But…if gog let’s me play old games with no problems then WOW! Grin

I had Simon the Sorcerer on the Amiga and thought it was simply wonderful. Good to see you can still buy it today!

I don’t mind him in 1. He gets worse as the series goes along, so if you find him annoying now, wait until 5 Naughty

I agree with Oscar, Simon 1 is the best, Simon 2 is really good, Simon 3 is good (if you can handle keyboard and carnival games that are dang near impossible to win) and Simon 4 isn’t that great, and Simon 5 isn’t that great, IMHO.

Chaos Happens. It got some bad reviews but I enjoyed it, and I can’t imagine anyone preferring Who’d Even Want Contact - I wanted to throw it out the window after the first 10 minutes. Maybe check youtube playthroughs of each to see which one you prefer?

GoG is great and I love supporting them because they’re DRM free and bringing back old games to new audiences. However, out of the more than 120 games that I own on GoG, a lot of them do have compatibility issues. Most of these can be solved though with some minor tweaking and help that you can find in the forums and I don’t think I’ve bought a game that was totally broken yet.
