I also love Majesty, such a cool concept. Are there more games like Majesty?

That's... interesting. Oh well, I love the game so much that I can buy it twice :)
I once bought Fallout 1 and 2 before finding my CDs a day or two later while cleaning. I contacted the support and they were able to swap them for two other games of equal value (note: I didn't actually download FO 1&2; that's something they would most likely check for). The best part is that I was able to get Fallout 1, 2 and Tactics for free anyway during the giveaway.

That actually is not a bad idea! I just sent a request to swap Majesty for JA2, which I would love to have on GOG. Price is the same so I hope they go ahead with my request :)

Picked up I have no mouth and must scream for $1.50. Never played it before.

Does GOG's JAII version, stop that stupid hanging up problem when you exit the game with the original (I still have it on CD)?

Got Darklands. Never played it, but read good reviews on the dex (and from Sawyer).

It runs fine for me, too (Win 7 x64). One issue I've encountered is that I need to press Alt+F after minimizing with Alt+Tab. Otherwise, it keeps the screen locked on the selected mercs and the keyboard doesn't work for the save games.

Is that Dungeons 2 thing worth anything for a Dungeon Keeper fan, or is it just a limpdicked cash-in of the concept?

Lol that sprite, I bet the game throws you a plot-twist at the end and the clown becomes a monster like the one from It. *Checks trailer* Heh, I believe the trailer pretty much hints this. Around 0:48 the scenario suddenly becomes covered in blood for half a second, before switching back to "normal" again.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Huh, Shadow Watch, I loved the demo back then, but I was a kid and may be nostalgia or just ignorance.

Hate to disappoint you, but you are confusing this game with some other one.

Also, you should really play the original Dreamfall before starting Chapters (not to mention The Longest Journey).

If you already have a few games on gog.com, stay away. They don't check whether you have those already.

True. The FAQ states that the prize pool is prioritized to games you don't own, but it is totally possible to get a game you already own as a gift code.
Since the thread over at gog forums is quite chaotic, this thread is useful for tracking purposes. Check it before gambling.
