Fallout

Wasn't it mandatory to buy it to become a member?

Assuming he's not a unionized public "servant", working too is implied.

Not unionized and definitely not a "servant" public or otherwise :P

Although I am a wee bit lazy :P

My first purchase was King's Quest 1-8 and Quest for Glory 1-5. They were all on sale at the time, and the sight of how few dollars I had to spend to have both of those entire series was too much for me to resist. I signed up for an account on the spot.

Some degree of laziness is a pre-requisite for being smart.

At some point, you got to sit down and think things over to figure things out.

Looks like I went crazy during a summer sale... FTL followed by King of Dragon Pass and then a lot of what were probably bundles, like from Spiderweb Software (Avernum etc.), an adventure bundle (Blackwell bundle and others) a D&D RPG bundle (I really do need to get around to playing Baldur's Gate someday!) and a 4X bundle. Because you have to check out each bundle separately I remember it made my credit card company really cranky because I checked out several on one day, and I had to call them to re-activate it because they couldn't believe I'd make several small purchases to the same site all in one day.

About a third of my first purchases were repurchases of games I'd already played, such as KoDP, many of the Spiderweb games, ToEE, NWN, Master of Magic, Master of Orion, etc. It's just really nice to be able to download those games and not have to worry about losing the discs, as I have inevitably done in many cases during moves etc. And if I'd already played and liked a few games in a bundle it definitely advocated for the rest. Also, having the older games packaged to run on newer systems is really nice.

Earthworm Jim series, shortly after that though I bough all the classic Fallout games. Then I held off for a while and bought half the store sometime later lol even got a few games I love so much that I got both gog and steam copies of them.

Wishbone: Yes, Judas is the living example of what you can accomplish if you spend most of your waking hours on the GOG forum. You can end up getting paid for doing essentially the same thing you were doing anyway ;-)

JudasIscariot: I play games too, you know :P
Life sure can be tough, hang in there Judas you will get through it.

Edit: Also to stay on topic I believe my first purchase was redneck rampage.

Sitting on the forum and playing games looks like a tough job... don't you need an assistant? :)
My shelf says: Darkfall: The Journal. My first paid game was Tex Murphy 1&2, but I got it for free long time ago :)

Arcanum, for half off. It's still one of my favorite purchases here.

I bought two games when I joined GOG, but technically the first one was Duke Nukem 3D: Atomic Edition.
