These games are mostly freeware / abandonware. You don't need a GOG account to get them for free. o.O

Abandonware is a synonym for pirated software. You're right though - most of these games are freeware.

You're right. Distribution of abandonware is illegal, it's still copyrighted. Acquiring those games through GOG maybe the better alternative. :D

(But abandonware =/= warez, no finacial harm is done to the copyright holders.)

Nope, they aren't abandonware. Nothing on GoG can considered as abandonware.

Same moment they are sold at GoG they aren't abandoned anymore ;D

Actually, if you'd read the subject of this topic or the main post of this topic, you might have noticed they're not being sold on GoG.

Hmm, even if they are distributed free by someone who have rights to distribute them they aren't abandonware anymore... Price could be left out in these cases...

That's probably true. Abandonware is a weird term.

What he meant is that they won't be automatically added if they were made available for free after you registered, and you have to add them manually.

Treasure Adventure Game was one of the coolest games I've ever played, and it just so happens to be freeware. It's a really awesome metroidvania/platformer/etc. http://www.robitstudios.com/treasure-adventure-game/

Being the kind of person that likes half-new and half-old, I appreciate this!

Thank you, Tyrian looks great! But most are point+click, which I sadly enough do not enjoy.

Meh, Superbrothers was good so I'll give them a chance! Thank you!

They were giving away fallout 1 for a while too.. Glad I snagged that, also FYI most of these games are available for free on a TON of different sites. However GOG is special 'cuz you get all those nerdy extras.

Somewhat related - the entire Interplay Catalogue (32 games) for $35 promotion is still running. It's a fair amount of money, but worth getting if you don't have Fallout, Fallout 2, Sacrifice, Giants: Citizen Kabuto, MDK, MDK2, Descent or Earthworm Jim yet.

Those are all free games. You don't even need to sign up to GoG to get them.
