Maybe it IS the same drawing. Afterall, I have it on good authority (my own) that everyone in the GOG community has a special, ethereal connection with each other. :)
Wow, what a grand release. Awesome work, GOG and Night Dive Studios :) I'll buy it as soon as I finish DX.
Two hours passed and SS2 sells better than 89 games...

We don't even know when the list was refreshed so it can be even better...

wow...

I wonder if it can reach top 10 by the end of the week...
instant buy !

Does anyone know if whe have to install the ss2_v24 patch on top of the SS2 install ?
Can't say I'm overly interested in this, though I'll probably try it eventually, but the storefront stuff you guys did for this is amazing. More launches like this, please!

This + Rule 36 = I'm leaving.

It actually reminds me that I have a picture I made while I was testing my girlfriends graphcs tablet. I was randomly scribbling away (I have a complete lack of artist talent by the way) and I happened to save it for some reason.

When I saw the thumbnail, I saw Gatts holding the Dragon Slayer over his shoulder, and now I can't unsee it.

Need to try and draw a proper picture over my scribblings.
