If you didn't get into the closed beta test of CD Projekt's GOG.com game download service, the wait to try out this new and promising site is over. The company announced today that the GOG (Good Old Games) site is now in open beta which means anyone can download and purchase DRM-free games from the service.
In addition to the older games from Codemasters and Interplay, GOG.com has also added two new publishers. Strategy First will add games like Sacred Gold, Jagged Alliance, Disciples Gold and more. In addition, Pluto 13 has allowed GOG.com to add the fantasy RPG Gothic to its stable of titles. Again the prices for these DRM-free games are $5.99 or $9.99 and are Windows XP and Vista compatible.

I've already spent a fortune in the private beta. The service works exactly as advertised and is exactly what I wanted it to be. Not all the games work perfectly flawlessly but overall the emulation is more than good enough. Glad to see more pubs jumping in too.
