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!

kalirion: 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.
You sholdn't crush dreams, that's cruel... poor little dreams.

Actually, I'm ashamed to say that I'm hoping for "Pipe Mania" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_Mania). Seriously.
But I doubt it GOG will go for such a small (yet very addicting) game.

Maybe in some arcade games package?

Great game indeed. There is a widget for the Opera browser called PipePanic which is a very good "clone"... Too bad I don't use Opera anymore!

I knew it would be Lucasarts simply because i already own them all, and the laws of probability state that whatever i already have will be what GOG hypes.

...that and, like i said before, the mad scientist looks like the one from Maniac Mansion and Sam and Max Hit the Road.

yeah, and the references to The Dig are also pretty clear.

Either I'm lacking imagination or all this fuss is not related at all to the long awated return of Operation Flashpoint on GOG, huh? ;P

Lol love the "didnt like the monk anyway quote"

Pulverized then. Not a shrinking ray. Could still be LA. Then again, could still be anyone. Time will tell. Sooner or later. Time will tell.

Edit:
Yes, of course, rest in peace brave monk. Thy sacrifice shall be remembered.
