Vagabond: Mark my words: Save money NOW.

You speak as if something good is coming. :P

BJWanlund: The reason I ask is if it's fiscal Q1, we'll probably still have at least 1, if not more, of these 3 announcements by the end of Calendar 2009.

Zeewolf: He said "nearest weeks or even days", remember? :-)

I do remember, was just making sure.

Mikee: Reason is simple, we work now on three big announcements till the end of Q1 2010:)))

BJWanlund: Are we talking FISCAL Q1 (which we're in now) or CALENDAR Q1 (which starts 1/1/2010), Mikee?
BJ

GOG's fiscal year is exactly the same as calendar. So it is pretty simple, Q1 ends with march 2010.
And you guys are completely right, saying that three BIG announcements don’t necessarily mean 3 big publishers;)

Yeah, WHAT HE SAID.

I'd put my money on Atari. They published a lot of Bioware's RPGs on the PC (including the disaster that was NWN1).
The only evidence against the Activision-Blizzard opinion is that (especially for you Blizzard fans) they already enjoy $20 and $40 retail packages of their Battlechests (D2:LoD, SC1, WC3, WoW), so a move to $10 on digital distribution would be a shot to the lung. I'd really like to see Sierra, though I dont know who owns them now.
Interplay, as far as I know, published I think all of the major D&D-based RPGs from Black Isle (Baldur's Gate, Icewind, Fallout/FO2 (though not D&D) , and Planescape), and we already have FO/FO2 in the catalogue.
EA would be nice, but I dont think they're nice enough to sign with GOG. They own the rights to Westwood's Command & Conquer series, and also published American McGee's Alice.

i think Activision own sierra now

Activision owns part of Sierra, but a lot of the IPs were scattered all over the landscape when the Sierra 'label' was killed off.

Atari has the D&D license now, so all that stuff belongs to them.

Well, they're nice enough to release C&C 1 for free...

Surely with 3 announcements you can give us a hint about one of them...

I'd love to, but cannot;)

Anyway today there is also nice thing to show up.
And everything will be revealed step by step, just stay tuned (You do that anyway;)
