Aliasalpha: Massive Entertainment maybe? They did Ground Control 1 & 2

They're owned by Ubisoft now, though ActiBlizz probably have the Ground Control-rights still. :-)
Would Origin count as both publisher and developer or were they just devs? Because there are a million games of theirs that I want.,...two of them have this guy, you know, in a red combat suit that just screams "I......will kill YOU".

Origin was both dev and publisher, but they did release a lot of games using secondary publishers, most notably EA.
EA would be the holy grail really because they might finally be able to sell me Syndicate, Powermonger (with WW1 expansion), Populous... well all of Bullfrog's games really.
Frankly if they got EA's entire back catalogue, I'd expect GOG's membership to triple within a month
Well, Lucasarts would be fantastic. But games from old developers EA bought would be even more fantastic. I really grieve for the good and creative studios they destroyed. But would EA agree to publish the games without DRM?

And forum saturation would reach 1000%, complete with five hundred different threads asking "BRING SO-AND-SO TO GOG!"
And the difference would be?

Not with that handy dandy "My Posts" link at the top of the forums. :)
so it was empire, probably atari at release, and then majesco.
This is interesting (from the GDC website):
"Also now confirmed is a 'Risks and Rewards of New Territories' panel, with CD Project co-founder Marcin Iwinski and Sega localization producer Rio Hasegawa discussing "the advantages of opening new territories and the challenges associated with localizing game content for [emerging] markets." "
So, the Erotic games are coming!
Wonder if they'll be the japanese ones involving tentacles & schoolgirls...

GDC 2009 Reveals Localization Summit Specifics).

However, if you go directly to the "(103) Risks and Rewards of New Territories" on the GDC website, it says nothing about Marcin being present.

So perhaps it has changed, or they simply left out the information from that particular webpage ?
