It's very difficult to find older games on original CD's at reasonable prices.

Therefore you are mixing two different concepts to achieve nothing.Įither use era appropriate hardware, software OS and software games from cds and dvds. Gog was always designed to make games run on modern machines not the original ones. Get original cds and run the games like that. If you want to run old games like old times you should not use gog. There's no real reason to opt to play something on XP when it works fine on Windows 10. However there's nothing on GOG that requires that, so there's no reason to worry about. I watch LGR on Youtube all the time and it's cool to see that stuff running. That said if you want to run some really obscure stuff it is cool to have a legacy PC setup. That's one of the great things about the PC, you can play pretty much everything on modern hardware. Even the rare games I knew of that did not GOG eventually got around to fixing, like Shadows of the Empire. It has nothing to do with age, there just isn't much reason to have a legacy PC because the vast, vast majority of software people care about runs fine on Windows 10. If you are a millennial, I can fully understand your views you don't miss what you never had. Gog used to be a great resource for older DRM free games and occasionally, one stumbles across one here on the site. We are not interested in running older games on current systems.

Myself and many others build period PC's in order to run older games.
