Video Game Preservation: Making games live forever

https://www.gog.com/blog/making-games-live-forever/

Published: February 2, 2026 14:02

I’m currently wearing a t-shirt with a GOG logo and a “Make games live forever” mission statement. That sentence might sound like marketing. It’s not. It’s the mission that gains importance each year. In 2025 I entered my 40th year of life on this planet…

Published: June 18, 2025 08:02

There’s a feeling you get when you’re truly in the zone playing Devil May Cry. It’s a state of flow that transcends simply winning. It’s not just about clearing a room of demons; it’s about how you do it. It’s the percussive rhythm of sword slashes, the…

A Galaxy Forged in Pixels: Star Wars games

Hello there! I remember the first time I watched Star Wars. I was a bit too young when they originally came out, being not even born, so I never watched them in a movie theater. But I did watch them in my home and instantly fell in love with them. In the…

Picture this: you’re trying to explain what a jRPG is to someone who’s never heard of ’em. How would you define it? I embarked on a quest to find out exactly that, and I ended up in a pickle. There’s no single answer. You ask ten different people, you’ll…

Lego®: Cross-generational fun

https://www.gog.com/blog/lego-cross-generational-fun/

Published: February 27, 2025 14:04

I have to be honest with you. For the longest time, I didn’t understand the appeal of LEGO® games. Watching others play, watching YouTube videos or Twitch streams the only thing I was thinking was “Why play Lego® Lord of the Rings™ if I can play Shadow of…

Batman: Arkham series and the Studio That Fixed Superhero Games

https://www.gog.com/blog/batman-arkham-and-rocksteady-studio/

Published: February 22, 2025 08:52

Before 2009, superhero games were considered a bad genre almost by definition. Not just mediocre — categorically bad, in the way that licensed tie-ins had been for a generation. You could trace it back to the movie tie-in era, the rushed production cycles,…

Dino Crisis

Published: January 27, 2025 09:43

I have to be honest. I was never a big fan of zombies. It’s not the gruesome looks of decay or anything, it’s the jumpscares in movies that skewed my perspective. Because of that I remember getting to play Resident Evil with a certain dose of wariness. And…
