More than 1,000 classic RPGs, strategy games, and horror greats are wildly cheap in GOG's "Classics" PC sale, and are we OK with Skyrim officially being labeled an "old game?"

GOG is holding a sale on more than 1,000 classic PC games, including some of the most formative RPGs, strategy games, and horror games ever made.

Researching this story, I clicked through all 23 pages of discounted games on GOG's "Classics Promo," and at one point I got jump-scared by the inclusion of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim ($10), the most recent mainline game in the Elder Scrolls series and most certainly not an "old game." I mean, I was 21 when it came out, and I'm still a super young, hip guy who totally doesn't have chronic back pain and absolutely doesn't get heartburn from eating an apple. There's no way Skyrim is old.
