Dr.M. has stolen our marketing plans, taken our game masters, absconded with our video trailers, and pilfered our contracts! Coala suggests that we should track down the evil Dr., but how in the world can we do that? We know that he has our "Get HUGE" formula, and we suspect that Dr. M. is going to the headquarters of our next publisher--and we know it's one of the five we've already mentioned in our CDP Days Conference this Spring. One of our clever developer guys pointed out that the only way that Dr. M. could have found GOG's secret headquarters (as opposed to our regular, non-secret one) would be to have put a tracking device somewhere. We've tracked Dr. M's tracker (ha! Take that, evil!) and we're plotting his location on a world map with each of our possible upcoming publishers' locations in them. Keep tuned for more updates as we triangulate on the signal and try to track down...the DASTARDLY DR. M.!


the mysterious Dr. M. made his appearance was way back in September, when we re-launched and moved the service out from the beta. Now, with the big announcement quickly approaching, it seems that Dr. M. has come out of the shadow once again. What's he up to this time? Find out more in the tale of great horror, entitled "Dr. M. & The Dastardly Doom". What horrors await? What grim future is coming to GOG.com?

We'll be posting the next pages of the comic in the next days so stay tuned to this news post as the story will reveal more info on Dr. M. and the secret briefcase!

I think it will be Grim Fandango too. I replayed it last year but this gem would be really nice to be here :3.

Good comics! I hope it is a beginning of era of short comics-ish promos :D.

Probably EA

As usual, I guess/hope that EA is coming on board. And if EA is coming I hope Wing Commander/Privateer series is coming to GOG. God, I just want to fly my Centurion class heavy fighter once more :-)

"Oh my! Is that the evil Dr.M. himself?"

Oh god DRM on GOG? D:

What if it's the Sierra's old Dr. Brain puzzle game series? No, the character is a scientist, so I dunno.

Or either of EA's two Syndicate games, or their first two System Shock games?

Well, whatever it is, should be fairly exciting to either play for the first time or re-live.

Also, apparently my last post in this thread didn't register, oh well.

Did anyone look at carmageddon.com? The site is registered to Square Enix (one of the 5 publishers mentioned by GOG as potentially being signed), who owns that property now, and the site has been updated with a countdown timer set to go off in about 2 days' time. I wonder what that was supposed to mean...

reaver894: If you wanted rid of the french monk couldnt you just sack him or something???

Miaghstir: Indeed, it'd make the story longer as we learn of him plotting revenge, joining Dr. M for a few episodes, and finally see the error of his ways as well as managing to convince the (in)famous doctor to join the GOG side.
That would be totally CHIKARA-wrestling-esque... which indeed would be awesome! But I realize I might be the only one here knowing (and enjoying) this wrestling promotion so... :s

Isn't it because Square Enix is about to announce a new sequel to Carmaggedon series? I think I read something like that on a videogames website...

Anyway, what truly matters is

VIVE LA FRANCE ! VIVE LE FRENCH MONK !!

id parted with Apogee after Wolfenstein 3D. Apogee had nothing to do with Doom, other than losing money when it made Blake Stone and RoTT look so much worse by comparison.

Thursday (http://www.mcvuk.com/press-releases/72853/CD-Projekt-REDGOGcom-announcement).

And all the clues seem to point to it being LucasArts (Grim, Tentacle, Dig), which is kind of disappointing for me as I like neither point-n-click/SCUMM adventures nor space/flight sims. Nevertheless, I'm happy for everyone else.

Does this mean a much bigger catalogue and some good deals on the way? I hope there are some bundles! Like 5 games for 10 bucks! Or something...
