"Approximately seventy years after video games first became a medium, the act
of preserving older games has become more important than ever. The CDPR-owned
GOG.com specialises in game preservation, tinkering with older games to ensure
people can play these games without jumping through convoluted hoops to make
them run on new hardware.

However, the company's noble mission is far harder than the team behind the
storefront initially expected. In an interview with The Game Business, Marcin
Paczynski, GOG's senior business development manager, opened up about just how
difficult game preservation can be."
