Delixe: You are all wrong. In Dragon Age you play an Outcast and Orion is mentioned in Mass Effect so it's clearly EA coming to GOG.

This could be it! :p

I guess that aside from some new releases we might see a new site layout.

It seems like the fish puns are over now. Good. It was giving me a haddock.
I had to write this just for the halibut.

Miaghstir: The font is one I don't think I've seen used here before, any idea if that's a hint as well?

Mentalepsy: I think that's just Atari's logo font, more or less.

Ah, that's the one, just a condensed variation of it. I could of course have walked a step or two to look at my game shelves and figure that out myself, but I was hoping it was a hint for a game using that font in its title or something. Also, well, I didn't actually remember the Atari logo other than the middle "A".

Vitek: Does it also mean there will be no weekend deal this week?

No deal this weekend.
Gotta save our money for the Tuesday's releases. :)

WOnder if it's MOO,MOO 2, or a combined package like what GOG did with Lords of the Realm.
Masters of Magic is the one I really want,since I have MOO2 on CD. I suspect it will be the Dos version of M002 with a DOSBOX wrapper,, since the Windows version has a lot of issues with Windows XP and it's sucessors. Makes no difference, since the Dos and Windows version are exactly the same.

It's definitely Atari's logo in the countdown background... Can't wait to see what GOG is preparing for us... :D

mystral: I hope it's MoO 2 since it seems to be almost universally acknowledged as the best in the series.

Mortons4ck: I've heard that the original MoO was much more balanced (I've never played MoO2 so I can't really comment on the hearsay)

There are enough fanpatches out there for any balancing demands. Most parts can easily be edited by tools too.
MoO2 is imho the best 4X game ever, but if GoG and Atari should have the brilliant idea to set a $10 price tag I will gladly refuse and be happy with my disc.

I'm still hoping for the Alpha of the Duke Nukem Forever Beta.

So you are fine paying $40 for example, for Sins of a Solar Empire collection, but refuse to pay $10 on a classic and genre-defining game? With no discs, no patches annoyance, win7 support, etc?
I don't get it.
EDIT: What 4X PC GAME is better than this and you can get for $5 or $6?

Ohhh you little... uber troll. :)
Agreed, a condom is well spent money. Although it feels like drm sometimes... uh, but yeah it's necessary evil. ;)
