Mentalepsy: I'm jazzed about the Bloodrayne games.
Unfortunately, like most of the games I want to see on GOG, I already own them.

Ditto. All good games (Psychonauts is absolutely fantastic), but yeah I too own all of them (the Majesco back catalogue). Except Mad Dog McCree. I'd like to see that.
Incidentally, Advent Rising is an underrated, good but not especially great, (and slightly buggy) third person genre shooter a la Halo (if it was third person). Character designs are very, very reminiscent of Halo. The story's pretty good. Worth the $6 if you like shooters or sci-fi.

I was feeling strange a bit because there were no releases, silence, then... this surprise, one publisher and two of their best titles.
Welcome Majesco. :)

Yay for Majesco!
Now I can try Psychonauts and Bloodrayne 2 (never played them) and I can play Bloodrayne 1 again (I've lost my CD).
This made my day.

Talking about BloodRayne, I had never got the chance to play it too.
I've only played some parts of Nocturne and Blair Witch, both horror games from Terminal Reality.

Great deal. Very interesting indeed.
I may try Advent and psychonauts in the future. I've played BloodRayne 1 before and it was... not THAT fun.

Faithful: Anyone play Advent Rising? I would really like to know what it is like as the images make it seem a bit sparse and lifeless.
Halo, if it was a third person shooter (no really, the designs and settings are very, very reminiscent of Halo) with auto-aim and a pretty good, if slightly generic, story. It's a short and fun genre game. If you like sci-fi or 3PS/Action titles it's worth it. If you don't, might not be your cup of tea. I liked it a lot. Pretty solid genre game, but nothing new or special.
The Terminal Reality games are all insanely great. I played them on Xbox though, excluding Nocturne and the Blair Witch Trilogy (which were great).

They do seem lifeless, huh. Anyways, it is very action packed, with lots of enemies jumping around at you. In the game, you can wield a weapon in your left and right hand. The left mouse button fires the left hand weapon, and the right mouse button fires the right hand weapon. Targeting is done via the mouse wheel. You scroll it to switch between the enemies on view. You can also manually, but you will be jumping around and dodging so often that it is easier to just swap targets with a quick flick of the wheel.
The fun part is when you get your powers. Powers can be equipped to your hand just like your weapon. Your powers can also unlock a second ability that you can choose between. Your speed power can unlock a time slowdown. Your shield power can unlock a personal shield bubble. You can move a single enemy around with your levitate ability, or lift up multiple enemies and toss them to the side. And more for your other powers.
The game really makes you feel like a powerful demi-god, but you are still very vulnerable to attack. The later game is all about using your abilities to annihilate hoards of enemies will minimizing the damage you take.
A flaw that most people originally touched upon when the game was released is the fact that your powers level up by using them. This is fine in and of itself, but all you need to do is spend a little while spamming your powers into a wall to have them reach max level.
Anyways, it is one of my favorite games, so I would recommend you pick it up. The only thing you have to worry about is the steep-ish system requirements. I remember it chugging a bit on my GeForce 6600 back in the day. Even today, maxing it out chugs my 8800 GTX a bit.

I wonder if we will see any of Majesco's other... less popular... titles on GOG, like Blow Out or Jaws Unleashed.
