Still no sign of Freelancer though.

GOG's community wishlist contains crowdsourced suggestions for old games that players would love for them to revive, as well as features and more general requests. Among the entries currently being voted on are games like Diablo 2 and Black & White as well as less directly actionable suggestions like "Do not get bought by EA" and "Continue to be a DRM-free store, today, tomorrow, and forever!"

Still, no matter what kind of requests they are, it's impressive that GOG has ticked two million off their list. To celebrate that they're having a sale, with discounts on games that were added to the GOG library after being suggested by the community such as Grim Fandango and the first two WarCraft games.

Now let me know when they've got around to Silent Hill 2, Blade Runner, Discworld Noir, or Dark Omen.

Jody's first computer was a Commodore 64, so he remembers having to use a code wheel to play Pool of Radiance. A former music journalist who interviewed everyone from Giorgio Moroder to Trent Reznor, Jody also co-hosted Australia's first radio show about videogames, Zed Games. He's written for Rock Paper Shotgun, The Big Issue, GamesRadar, Zam, Glixel, Five Out of Ten Magazine, and Playboy.com, whose cheques with the bunny logo made for fun conversations at the bank. Jody's first article for PC Gamer was about the audio of Alien Isolation, published in 2015, and since then he's written about why Silent Hill belongs on PC, why Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale is the best fantasy shopkeeper tycoon game, and how weird Lost Ark can get. Jody edited PC Gamer Indie from 2017 to 2018, and he eventually lived up to his promise to play every Warhammer videogame.
