Bohemia Interactive is the publisher (Arma serie). Sadly, they are pro-DRM : (

I suck at those games, beyond suck as we know it, but still sad.

ShadowWulfe: And I think there are actually more in the series besides those three?

Maxvorstadt: Well, the thruth is:
Swiss animal rights activists strike again!!!
:( Well, go ahead and cook Bohemia Goulash with Swiss cheese and extra garlic, together with whoever removed Duke Nukem... Even for a true Xcom fan (who dislikes Apocalypse graphics), Ufo series are worth playing.

Sad news.

fables22: ...
Can GOG at least organise a discount for the series?
I hope it won't be pulled from my library. :/

As for the discount - it was in the talks but as it looks just now, there won't be a discount for the series at the moment.
Other than that - it should not be pulled from your library.

Thanks for the heads up.

Sad news. But thank you for the warning.

I actually played one of these when I was jonesing for some X-Com action. I *think* it was the second one (the first seemed tactical only - little basebuilding). Always meant to go back to it - couldn't *quite* get into it at the time, but I did spend a little time with it.

Is this the third one? Time to go check.

fables22: Hey everyone!

A bit of a sad heads up today: unfortunately, we are going to be removing UFO: Afterlight from our catalogue tomorrow at 3PM CET due to a recent change in rights holder. We will try our absolute best to bring the game back as soon as possible, but we can't make any promises as of yet. Really sorry about this!
Why isn't it on the front page ?

Oh shame, cheers for the heads up.

What about UFO: Afterthought?

They should have really made that game, in hindsight.

I'm more partial to UFO: Aftershave. I can't wait for the DLC where you get to use the Schick Hydrobot.

I've also heard a rumor that UFO: Afterglow was supposed to be really, really, really good, but got cancelled at the last minute due to issues with the free bundled cigarette in the box. There was also something about the good part lasting only about five seconds.

We don't generally do newsposts for game removals, unless it's a very big game.

EDIT: But we do always try and give people on the forums as much of a heads up as we can.
