We didn't choose the thug life. We've been blessed with it by fate.

Omerta: City of Gangsters, an organized crime simulation that will let you dominate 1920s Atlantic City as a mafia boss, is available for pre-order on GOG.com for only $33.99. That's 15% off the regular price! The offer ends on Thursday, January 31, at 10:59AM GMT, when the game is released.

Omerta. Remember the word. Back in the day, I wouldn't have to lay it out for you, kid. Everybody knew how it works, even a complete cafone. You don't talk to the law. There. Easy as that. Anyone who talks is a rat. And a rat deserves to be popped, just as any vermin. So, whether you are a made man, a goodfella, a wiseguy, or just a thug, you live by that one simple rule. You never talk. Even if the coppers ask you to rat out your worst enemy. Even if by telling them something you could easily wipe out your whole competition. You don't do that. You just don't. Unless you want to end up like Eddie the Eel. Funnily enough, it turned out that he couldn't swim. At least not in the concrete boots he couldn't. But I digress, kid. There's really just one thing you need to remember: Omerta. As in: shut your pie-hole. Capisce?

Omerta: City of Gangsters brings life to the prohibition-era Atlantic City, where you struggle for power against the law enforcement and--most notably--other mob families. It's a multi-layered urban simulation complete with turn-based tactical combat. You're an aspiring gangster slowly recruiting a gang of partners in crime, working your way up the criminal food-chain, and hoping to--one day--become the Capo di tutti Cappi, the boss of all bosses. With over 15 hours of gameplay in each unique playthrough, 20 detailed territories to claim as your own, and a cooperative or competitive multiplayer modes Omerta: City of Gangsters is the organized crime simulator we've been waiting for!

Pre-order Omerta: City of Gangsters before Thursday, January 31, at 10:59AM GMT for only $33.99!

Oh, by the way--since this is a pre-order, this technically doesn't count as our 500th release. You'll have to wait for that till tomorrow, and there's a good reason to visit as then, as we have something special planned to go with that milestone.

But now, back to Omerta:

Wishbone: The game card says 1920s Atlantic City. Which is it then? 20s or 30s?
1920s ...definitely 1920s. Nothing to see here, move along ... :P

Nice edit. You broke the OP completely ;-p

Maybe it's time to look at some of the newly introduced forum bugs?

What Wishbone said. Hopefully someone has noticed the URL/edit bug that broke the OP.
The Gamer Hub has some singleplayer videos of the beta(?) on Youtube. The guy playing is not the sharpest knife, but he does a decent job. The game seems interesting, I think I'll take the plunge.

They should have. After all, I did explicitly state that the OP was now broken. On the other hand, they haven't done anything about it yet.

nijuu: Is this like the 3rd most expensive release (on GOG) behind TW2 & Tales of Monkey Island collection???
True, but in Steam cost 45 € (60 $) without the discount. And here is 25 €, so for me is a very good prize.
Going to be interesting to see how they handle the inevitable DLC for this.

xep624: No, of course not - but do not forget that Chaos Chronicles is coming out from JA: Back In Action team. BTW: did you like the new JA? IMHO the game was worse, but it took 100 hours of my life anyway...
I didn't like it that much, to sluggish, especially the inventory was shit. Didn't actually buy it, but i've played the demo. Didn't knew the background of the Omerta team though. O.o

Is that why it still hasn't been fixed?

Ah, covering our tracks now, are we? :-D
Any chance this comes with a soundtrack?
This looks very cool to me but I will wait on reviews and user feedback before I'd ever purchase it. I'll also wait for the price to drop because I am just a poor old gamer.

I hope this game winds up being really good, popular and sells well. It would make another good argument for dropping DRM from new releases.

fuzzybunny566: technically we already reached the 500th game EVER available on GOG, since XII was removed from the catalogue

Anguille: XII? What is that?

I am a big fan of Haemimont, they produce good quality games and always have (starting with Tzar). As i am no fan of DRM i was about to wait but now i have no reason to hesitate anymore, thanks GOG. Will preorder this asap. I hope you bring other older gems from Haemimont here (like Rising Kingdoms, Glory of the Roman Empire or the Punic Wars).

Happy guy!
crap, i meant XIII. but in a search just now, i've learned GOG has removed 8 other games that have not yet returned. so we're at like 509 now...hehe.
