The game hasn't been in our catalogue for a whole week and we're already adding more cool materials! This really means the Holidays are coming ;)
[url=/en/gamecard/oddworld_abes_oddysee][/url]The Oddworld universe is full of breath-taking places and odd but charming characters. Thanks to the Oddworld Inhabitants' help in getting the artworks, we're adding another pack of great wallpapers with Abe and his fellow Mudokons. And if you've always dreamt of having Abe's head as the Windows mouse cursor, you'll definitely like the Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee Desktop Theme :). The additional materials are available, after you purchase the game, on the “My Account” page.
Cool, nice going guys.
However, there is a spelling mistake in the title. Now you are basicly saying that although the game has not been in the catalogue for a week you are adding materials regardless (even though nobody can access them as the game is not in the catalogue ;).
Edit: "The game hasn't been in our catalogue for more than a week and we're already adding more cool materials! This really means Holidays are coming ;)" would be more accurate.
Edit 2: So, it's not the title but the lead. Sorry.

Yes, I know... but the title of their announcement indicates otherwise. Thus, it is missleading/wrong
Edit: It just caught my eye, not a big deal.

Hmm, I'm reading the news post and it looks alright to me (though I'd probably have said "hasn't even been in our catalogue for a whole week and we're already adding more..."... has it already been edited since it first went up?
Thanks Zer0, we don't want anyone to be confused.. so news has been edited and corrected :)

I would think at the bottom it would say "post edited x hours ago by x"

Only if it was edited on the forum and not when I edited it from the news manager directly :)

My pleasure. Granted, I may be hypersensitive to these kinds of things. When you twist words for work, you sometimes get caught up in nuances.
Though I prefer using the classic style of Windows XP, the wallpapers are great. Currently I'm using BASS's wallpaper which is pretty neat, but my next patch of wallpapers would be from this pack.
Thanks a lot, GOG.
LOVE the wallpapers.
Thanks for all of the cool stuff, GOG!
