SpooferJahk: I'm in, and here is a screenshot of Left 4 Dead 2 running with everything on low settings... at 640x480. (The screenshot will be a little bit more pixelated than normal thanks to Steam's screenshot system)

Thanks for the giveaway!
Just so you know, you can actually set Steam to save screenshots as png instead of jpeg (Settings > in-game tab).

Found out about it just now... oh well, not like it improves the quality of the image that much. :P

Here is a picture from Warlock: Master of the Arcane.

By the way, what games are in the collection? I already have a few boxed from before, and I also have the bottom tier + a few from the other tiers.

I'm not in but this seems like a fun idea.

Here's Quake 4 at 320x240 fullscreen on Windows 8. Windows 8 does not seem to like this low resolution so it appears to just overlay it over a 640x480 portion of your desktop in the upper left corner. Bizarre.

RadonGOG: Edit:
Some folks mentioned a prize!
What is the prize, BTW?

Maighstir: As mentioned in the OP, 18 games from an Interplay partial-pay-what-you-want promo in three tiers (first tier PWYW, second and first tier above a certain value, and all three if you paid above another value). Those 18 are more than half the games from the promo, yet the price I paid was a lot less than the games I didn't already have would otherwise cost.

So, I effectively got a dozen or so games at a very good price, then a code for another 18 for free (that I already had) because I bought those dozen.

Here: http://www.gog.com/forum/general/special_promo_pay_what_you_want_for_interplay_games The promo page is long gone, but the news post is still there. I already had 18 of the games, so those are what's offered.
The interplay promo had been a nice one I really loved!

But, due to this, I already got all of the games:
So I´d only be in if " If you already own some of them you can redeem the rest and send what's left to a friend. "
also applies to "using it as a price for a GOG-riddle".

I have a 4:3 LCD that I use a lot. I actually prefer 4:3 for a desktop monitor over widescreen for a lot of things. It rocks for playing older games too.

Just discovered Deadly Rooms of Death recently, so here's a screenshot of me playing a bit of that.

edit: Added another screencap showing this post at 1024x768 as proof I'm running on a modern OS.

Here is a screenshot of my desktop, I trust the wallpaper from a game that is not out yet is proof of it's recent origin, even if most of the shortcuts would not be out of place ten years ago.

Here's Blood Bowl Chaos Edition at 1024 x 768.
It's the smallest resolution that BB will allow & the largest my monitor will support...

Just one more reason I nabbed my sisters laptop :)
