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!

spindown: Not this again. I mean, do whatever you want, but remember that just 6 weeks ago everybody was speculating that Dungeon Keeper, Full Throttle or Wing Commander were coming to GOG based on "hints" like this one. In the end, it turned out to be a bunch of mostly mediocre Atari games.

TheEnigmaticT: My personal guarantee it's not a "bunch of mediocre games."

Not that I thought that the Atari games were mediocre, mind, but I can't think of anyone who'll be upset with the news we're that we're spinning up for. ;)
We're that we're spinning up for????

Good to hear, but personally, I won't be holding my breath until I see the actual news...

Taleroth: Then either you have a lacking imagination or it's Deus Ex or System Shock.
Oooo. Good call. Not quite that exciting.

You bought up Steam and will offer its whole catalog without DRM and free next week?
Wow, I dint expect that, you guys are up there with the FSM!

(so, that should take care of people with too low expectations)

One question to High Chief of the PR Department :D

Is this a "new wave of" kind of game, or we are actually getting a new publisher (it may be or may be not one of the big five, I don't ask about that)


Becuase we now know it's rather not EA and Square Enix, if it's not that exciting.

Remember, they've said new publisher early summer so it's possible that it could happen next week. After all June can be seen as early summer :)

I could tell you, but that would be telling. Patience, as the next few days will reveal all.

I know, that's why I'm asking. Because it could be some kind of appetizer, or it could be finally a new publisher (one of the big 5) - but since it's not that exciting as SS2 or DE, there are only 3 left (LA, THQ and Microsoft).
