So I've looked into getting HBO from Cox so I can watch GOT. I'm wondering what all I need to get to be able to watch GOT on my computer, tablet, TV, etc. Can I watch GOT by buying just HBO from my provider or do I also need to buy HBO Go? I also have only seen the first episode, so will I be able to go back and watch the first season?

A subscription to HBO. HBOGO comes automatically with an HBO subscription, and at this point only comes with an HBO subscription.
Thank You! Time to get me some HBO
HBO GO, baby. Every episode of every series (including miniseries) they've ever done. Sopranos, Entourage, Deadwood, Band of Brothers, Rome, etc.
Edit: you'll need some extra hardware to watch it on your TV. Hardware like Apple TV, PlayStation 3, Rouku, Xbox 360 or some smart TVs.
Unless you have a Samsung TV
You can also set up your computer as a media box and use a TV as your monitor.
Chromecast is 35 bucks definitely the cheapest (yet still the best) of those options.
In case anyone was considering one, the Sharp smart tv's don't carry HBO Go.
DVD/Blu-Ray box sets for each season?
Then I have to watch it on something connected to a DVD player (I don't even have a blu-ray player). Besides, with HBO I can find other shows I might be interested in.
Highly recommend veep
Yes. And Silicon Valley.

Bro-tip: avoid this subreddit untill you are caught up. There are a bunch of spoilers you will inevitably run into, if you don't.
As long as you have a television provider.
As I understand it, if you've cut the cord then you're shit out of luck.

If you subscribe to HBO you can watch on anything you want through HBO Go, the new episodes are up on HBOG the day they premiere.
Edit: and yes all the episodes are on there
So does HBOG come with subscribing to HBO?
Yes ser
Thanks! Tonight's probably gonna be a GOT binge watching night.
I did the same thing. Marathoned the first three seasons, now I go through withdrawals with only one episode per week.
They've also got all the other complete hbo series on it. Make sure to watch the wire too, it's considered some of the best TV ever made

The question here is, does that work in countries outside the US of A?
If you have HBO then yes
