Majesco Entertainment is the latest company to get in on the Good Old Games action. What does it mean for us? Surprisingly good things.
Available now completely free of DRM are Psychonauts ($9.99) and Advent Rising ($5.99). Alongside BloodRayne and BloodRayne 2, more Majesco games will be appearing on GOG in the near future.
Anthony's Games that time forgot article on Advent Rising (excuse the formatting; old post is old) always made me want to play the game, but as usual, I never got around to it. The chance to do so for six bucks without leaving the house? Sounds easy enough.

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
The notable frame-rate drops made me return it the same day I picked it up.
Oh and Metal Arms needs to be on current hardware, or even a sequel. Who owns the IP rights to that?
...not that I'm complaining. I've bought it twice and I'll probably buy it again.
That's exactly why I support them whenever I can. I've even bought games from them that I still have on disc to support them and to get rid of the DRM.
On the other hand, scratch that last sentence - it's always better to support GOG.
@reindall - how does this free Psychonauts work? Don't you need to pay a monthly fee to use GameTap (so ending your service with GameTap means no more games)?
It's such a good game and for $10 you should just get it DRM Free and you'll be able to play it over and over again.
@jack8274 - lungfishopolis (is that right?) is greatest moments in video games... run for your lives, here comes gogolor (sp?)
P.S. My milk is delicious
