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!

From what I read about GOG and CDP's announcement today, the new publisher will be revealed AHEAD of E3 along with details about the release of those initial 25 titles throughout the summer.

No one forgot them but they were ruled out. GOG said it's either Lucasarts or Electronic Arts.

Nobody has forgotten Microsoft. It's not them. It is EA or Lucasarts.

25 titles? Does Lucas Arts even have 25 titles that would make the cut? Don't get me wrong, I know they've got a bunch, but I have a bit of a hard time seeing KOTR for example or other similarly aged titles as being part of it.

Lucasarts has far more than 25 titles. They have 15 adventure titles alone, without getting into the Star Wars games.

And KOTOR is both older and better than several games already on GoG.

Is Dr.M lying down in tire tracks? Did you just run him over?
Hey, whatever you need to do to get the formula back is OK with me.

So wait, the master copy for all 25 games fits on a single disc?

Unless GoG has resorted to pill based storage.

That's funny, I think the guys at GOG killed a body double of Dr. M. I distinctly recall giving him a set of .45 caliber earplugs in Rainbow Six Vegas 2. : )

Hope it's EA! That would totally Shock my System.

Get huge? Someone likes generic Viagra knock-offs a little too much, eh? =P

Also, nice gloves!

Ummm.... Publisher Enhancement much? Seriously...

If "growth" lasts longer then 4 hours, please seek medical attention.

And Dr. M must have been a hit with the ladies with all of those pills.

Sorry couldn't resist.

I'm afraid it's not Dr. M.

He should be wearing a surgeon suit and a mask, and this guy is wearing jeans and shirt in stripes.

This must be one of Dr. M's minions.

DrIstvaan: It may sound strange, but I'm still not hyped about today's announcement. I'll *probably* play Space Rangers 2 during the presentation and learn from my brother who the big publisher to join GOG is.
(The "party" can go on now.)

Wolfox: That is a great game to play, during the presentation or not. ;-)
Yes, I've been playing it for a week now in a somewhat-unsettling number of hours a day. So indeed, I like that game :-).
