Thanks to our high-tech, magical device we've managed to extend the month of April till the 35th to bring you the new and exciting site update as promised in late April (some of you believe it's May already, but you're wrong ;)). As we teased last week, we have to take the site down for a short maintenance tomorrow (Thursday) to put up all the new and slick features.

We're expecting the downtime to be sometime around 3AM EDT (or 7AM GMT) and should only be a few hours. During this time you won't be able to buy or download your games on GOG.com, this means the maintenance will effectively prevent you from taking advantage of the GOG.com Gem Promo. That's why we're going to extend it for as long as the maintenance will last.

Be sure to come back tomorrow and check the new features as well as to see what's the last secret release from Atari - and now speculations begin!

dwbridges: Wait... those sound like cold months! Great - "MORE" Winter is coming!

Curunauth: OOh! yes please!
"More winter", is that code for "Morrowind"?

lackoo1111: Off topic , but will there be any Activison release from the city building series ? ( Pharaoh Gold , Master of Olympus: Zeus Gold , Emperor: Rise of the Middle Kingdom )
Ooh I'd like to see Master of Olympus:Zeus as well. I bought it a while back when I lived overseas, but when I moved I somehow lost my second disk :( To me it's like a better version of Ceasar III.

If it was I'd be the happiest person on earth since I've been afraid to upgrade from XP for years due to fear that Morrowind would stop working on my computer. I really highly doubt it is MW though.

It's Indigo Prophecy / Fahrenheit, you silly geese.

Leroux: Awesome! Now that's what I call great customer service! It also explains why the weather over here is still acting so strangely. Now, could you please extend the hours of the day as the next step? A general increase of human lifespan would be much appreciated, too! ;)

Cook: We're working on it, unfortunately the main power source for the machine, which is a hamster, said to us (yes, it's a talking hamster!) he's done for now. We're trying to bribe him with some GOG games and weird food that came to The EnigmaticT from his homeland, but nothing works so far. If we have an update we'll let you know ;)
Does this hamster happen to be runehamster?

I'm running Morrowind just fine on 64-bit Windows 7, so I'd say you don't have anything to worry about.

dwbridges: Just remind the hamsters that the dinosaurs were first and we ALL know how things turned out for them. We wouldnt want repeat now, would we?

joshykins: I really hope its NWN 2. When it first came out I never really gave it any attention, I still have the box somewhere but god knows it the CD's are still in there.
avatar
dwbridges: I would jump up and down with glee over this one but somehow I doubt that NWN2 is it. It just recently showed up on steam for $19.99 and I suspect they aren't quite through trying to get that much out of it.
Excellent point! Yeah now that I think about it, it would make sense to hold off on NWN 2 unfortunetly. One can always dream!

However a few days later a video apology by 2 men of the cloth will come out and all will be well...

Oh hey just before you go is it too much to ask for some additional General Discussion boards? We need a little bit more space. I propose at least adding a "GOG.com Site Discussion" board.

That is good to hear. I just remember all the horror stories of people having to fight to get vista to run MW. They got it to work, but not without some major finagling. I suppose that is what I get for hanging out on the mechanical issues section of Bethesda' boards.

chautemoc: It's Indigo Prophecy / Fahrenheit, you silly geese.
This I would support since my PS2 version gives me a headache. I really dislike consoles when there is a PC version available. Do not ask me why I bought the PS2 version and not the PC one. I have no answer.
