It annoys me how most dvd/cd games came with a code or you have to pay a crazy amount for retro titles. im looking for game si can test on a 32 bit, 2gb of ram pc or even turn it into a retro gaming machine. i have a bunch of blank dvd's laying around so should i put some on a dvd by chance. where do i even find retro games that can be put on a dvd for free?

also feel free to add anything if needed.

The good thing about GOG is basically everything retro doesn't need that launcher if you don't like it. 8 myself, haven't had any problems with it though.

That being said, I've run in to too many games that were fixed for Win7/8, but not touched since Win10 came out and I had to get refunds, which is not an ideal system with GOG.
