It annoys me how most dvd/cd games came with a code or you have to pay a crazy amount for retro titles. im looking for game si can test on a 32 bit, 2gb of ram pc or even turn it into a retro gaming machine. i have a bunch of blank dvd’s laying around so should i put some on a dvd by chance. where do i even find retro games that can be put on a dvd for free?

also feel free to add anything if needed.

    If you’d like to talk about older games, feel free to pop in at !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works

    As for retro games, GOG was fantastic for this, but their current launcher is a significant downgrade over the old one, I could reference locations to find these games that are hard to even buy, but I don’t know what is allowed on this instance.

    There are two instances that would be great to discuss this further, one is FMHY and the other is dbzer0.

      The good thing about GOG is basically everything retro doesn’t need that launcher if you don’t like it. 8 myself, haven’t had any problems with it though.

        That being said, I’ve run in to too many games that were fixed for Win7/8, but not touched since Win10 came out and I had to get refunds, which is not an ideal system with GOG.
