Hello, Mr Lidless! (the eye form The Lord of the Rings).
Nice to see you here among the crazy people of Fred. :-)
I think test bed is a good point. Look at Cinemaware, they bring a few here, test the water, then give Steam a compilation of over a dozen games for the price of one or two on here. Then say it was not their fault (which I don't believe), they promise to give us something to make it up to us, but that was the last we heard. Nothing to make it up to loyal GOG customers, not even a new game, not even those on the Steam compilation that are not here. Didn't SquareEnix previously admit to using GOG only when they can't get a game to work so they can then sell it on Steam? Perhaps GOG should focus more on those developers and publishers who value GOG customers, not pander to "AAA" publishers for table scraps.
Yes, that was a big fat fiasco there with Cinemaware.
I don't think I've heard that about SquareEnix - if they publicly said that, they could as well have spat in GOG's and our faces.
I think GOG's in a bit of a pickle in their endeavour to grow and get more leverage in the market. Time will tell where all this leads us.
ddickinson: Just be careful when going through your new things. Boys have some weird stuff in their rooms. :-)

Ah come on, it can't be that much weirder than some stuff girls have. ;-P
And
this is for the peeps that are not doing so well. Guaranteed to work so you won't miss out on a nice weekend! :-)
