      I always search for a game first on GOG (game of games) and then humble bundle and then Steam in that exact order for that exact reason that I want as little DRM/server/update BS with the game as possible so I couldn't agree more with you!

      *edit I've been corrected it is good ol games haha

        @tyreal90 There are games that should NOT be able to run on my computer, but through the magic of witchcraft, they run.

          @tyreal90 i purchased a fairly new game called retro city rampage. I purchased a steam copy, gog copy, floppy disk ms-dos version and the psp/vita/ps3/ps4 version. I have a steam code that i have not used. With it you get the windows/linux/mac/ms-dos version if you want it. I have the ms-dos version and the psp versions working on my pi. If you are interested please let me know. If you sign up to the atariage.com forums, i can send you the code through there.

            How well does the PSP version run?

              @mediamogul perfect. I have had it on my psp for a quite a while and didnt think of testing it on the pi. I had to find one online since they need to be cracked to play on the pi and tested it. It works great. And since its a better version than the dos version and runs better than the dos version i was happy.

                          I verified account but it says that chat needs 100 posts. Is that the function you are looking to use?

                                          @edmaul69 your name doesn't show up in steam.

                                          I'm lilbud on steam, as well as everywhere.

                                            Game of Games? I thought it was Good Old Games? or is this another service altogether?
