- salamandersauce 5y agoI'd really like a GOG for console games. Give me a website where I can buy ROMs DRM free for old consoles legitimately. Maybe bundle in an emulator and a scan of the manual but let me do what I want with the ROM, whether that's create my own repro, run it on a flashcart, play it on my phone etc.
- ndiddy 5y agoIf you buy a Sega Genesis game on Steam, you get the ROM of the game in an “uncompressed ROMs” folder in your Steam library.
- krige 5y agoGOG shifted focus from that a long, long time ago. Now they're a normal storefront that mostly deals in indies and occassionally releases older games - and the quality of those older releases is rarely anything above slapping dosbox and/or dgvoodoo on it. Speaking from personal experience many older games are better preserved by a certain fitness named piracy site, let alone freaking steam. Gog distant third.
- kubb 5y agoWhat's the fitness site out of curiosity?
- lukyanovic 5y agoI would imagine that FitGirl repacks is the site in question.
