It'll be nice to see the other games on here. This will also give us some insight into how long it takes GOG to tweak games from when they get them until they are released. Both the Big publisher (started 6 weeks ago), and OddBoxx(starts now) :P At least for those of us who are curious about such things.

"Starts now" for OddBoxx isn't necessarily true, it may very well be "starts when the veritable mountain of games from the new publisher is done".

The Oddboxx site has changed now so that it doesn't mention GOG:
Hi Chumps,

As you might have noticed, we’ve been saying the Oddboxx has been released on Amazon when it hasn’t yet been made available on there. This was a surprise to us, we were under the impression the folks at their end would have put it up by now. Evidently they haven’t, but the word is that they’ll be made available by the end of the week!

Please don’t yell at us if they’re not! We’ve delivered the games to Amazon and can only chase them up on it. Fingers crossed!
But it is good to know that they are coming to GOG, being as we've had confirmation from TheEnigmaticT.

DukeNukemForever: So, is that a hint that it is not LucasArts? Because their adventures work perfectly under ScummVM and don't need much time for testing. So, we need a pbuslisher with many buggy games.
It's almost certainly Squee. GOG have effectively ruled out the possibility of it being THQ. So to me Squee seems the most likely candidate.

A pretty pointlessly negative comment about not wanting to buy something, even though nobody even asked? It could only be lackoo. :P

I have this general complaint with all weekend deal and release threads. Messages along the lines of, "I have no interest in this." or "No buy," are rather annoying. It's all selfish sounding.

If you find those comments annoying then I apologize for the ones I've made. I didn't mean to bother you or anyone when I say that.

Whenever GOG posts a sale or a new release I know a lot of people aren't going to buy it. I don't need a show of hands. It goes without saying.

Or at least it should go without saying.

I can't say I've noticed you do that. But lackoo damn near ALWAYS does that. Which is the main reason I pointed it out. Plus there are various different ways of saying you're not interested and lackoo has never really bothered with the polite way.

Don't worry about it. I never remember who posts those sorts of messages anyway.

Really. All it does is just demean GOG's morale.

I tend to do that whenever a new RPG or sim game shows up. I just have no interest in those two genres. I was being impolite when I did that without meaning to, so I'll back off on doing that for the forseeable future.

On the other hand when I say I'm wishlisting something I mean it. I added the AITD trilogy to my wishlist damn near immediately after they were posted. I intend to buy them once my issues with the eBay buyer are sorted.

Much worse than the sound of someone removing their tongue from GOGs ass just long enough to utter the word instabuy?

To be honest I do kind of agree with you, just making the point that an empty post is an empty post whether that be positive or negative in nature.

Hey, that takes effort you know. It's stuck tight and deep in there. Which is why I seldom bother going through said effort.

On the other hand, you don't hear me complaining about releases either, instead most often making jokish remarks like this one :-)
