Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment comes to GOG.com.

We're on a roll! We're happy to announce that Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment joins the GOG.com catalog to make the world of DRM-free gaming that much better today. We're starting off with six widely requested titles:

Let's start big:
<span class="bold">Mortal Kombat 1+2+3</span> just got the GOG.com treatment. If you were having a hard time getting these notorious bits of gaming history to run on your computer, boy do we have a surprise for you!

We're also launching these five heavily requested titles with big, weeklong discounts:

LEGO Batman: The Videogame -50%
LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1 - 4 -60%
LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5 - 7 -60%
F.E.A.R. Platinum -50%
Bastion -60%

It's yet another great start to yet another great publisher debut on GOG.com, let's get our fill!
YES, YES, YES!!! Thank you WB and GOG!!!
Superb news, thanks gog and warner, and also welcome!
Great job, guys!

The remaining F.E.A.R.s and other WB games are locked up in the DRM chamber, eagerly waiting to be released.

If that happened, I would be sooo happy.
Is it safe to assume Warner Brothers is the other AAA publisher that GOG teased being close to signing with? Epic news!

jamyskis: Great news, although I'll remain sceptical for the time being about where this is going, as most other AAA partnerships have turned out to be a bit of a dead-end. Today we're still waiting for Assassin's Creed 2/3/4/Brotherhood/Revelations, the remaining Splinter Cell games, the Mass Effect trilogy, the Dragon Age trilogy and so on.

Every new AAA publisher that GOG has bagged has as yet failed to produce a single game that has not been DRM-free before. Ubisoft to this day haven't produced a single game that was UPlay-only, EA haven't produced a single game that has been Origin-only, and Disney hasn't produced a single game that has been Steam-only. All of the games that are released on GOG are ones that can be bought used on disc. Their release here is not a commitment to DRM-free - it's a method of discouraging DRM opponents from buying used copies, which I really have no opinion on, but I rather have a DRM-free copy of a game where a used disc copy isn't an option in the first place.

I note also that all of the WBIE titles here have likewise been available DRM-free in the past, and like the other publishers, I suspect that many of these are only here because gamers otherwise have the option of keeping away from the DRM versions by buying used copies of the originals on disc. Also, it's rather odd that GOG should get the inferior DOS versions of the MK trilogy when Steam has the superior Arcade Kollektion (multiplayer be damned - like most MP games, online is long dead anyway).

I'll be impressed when we see FEAR 2 & 3, the Arkham trilogy (although Asylum was technically DRM-free, because it used the offline version of GFWL's protection), MK9 & X, Shadow of Mordor, Gauntlet and Injustice.

tokisto: Yeah, but there´s nothing else to do. For while, I´ll just enjoy the current DRM-free ones here.
When have these LEGO games been offered DRM free?
I'll believe WB has truly gone DRM-Free if Shadow of Mordor comes here considering they would have to strip steamworks off of it.

Great to see another big publisher join the party along with some great games. Can't wait to see what else is in store! Bought the bunch and will probably fire up some F.E.A.R. soon!

I'm still of the impression that their previous hint was actually about Take 2 or Microsoft because at that point they were referencing the original list of the big 5 they had a few years ago; as far as I can recall, WB wasn't actually on it. Another reason why WB coming to GOG was so unexpected is due to no mention of it before.

I believe that all of the Lego games released today had retail disc releases that at least didn't have any online activations, Steam or otherwise. Some would view that as DRM-free.

Is the latter a result of the former? If so, consult your physician. ;)

But wouldn't he have to use protection then? I guess we can all blame F4LLOUT then if DRM comes to GOG. =P
