It rhymes with the Finnish word for pony, so you know it's great. :p

And swedes not recognising the game title think it sounds similar to "oh, no" when I mention it.

So, yeah. "Oh, no! Pony!" There's no mistaking it, it is an awesome game.

Fuzzyfireball: Vivisector is very possible, GOG already has 1C Publishing.

jefequeso: But the demand just isn't there. Most people haven't even heard of the game, and many that have don't really care about it one way or the other.

Still, the fact that they have the publisher is better than I expected. Maybe...VIVISECTOR FANS UNITE!!!!!!!
Theres probably no demand for it because you can buy it in pretty much every other digital service out there. Im sure they have it on Gamersgate and GMG, and i think ive seen it on Amazon too. The most requested games are usually the ones you cant find anywhere else, like System Shock. Also, many people didnt like Vivisector, and it isnt very famous.


Oh, and ive just found a sealed copy of the first Homeworld catching dust on a local games store for something like 7 dollars. I went ahead and bought it, guess it was a great deal.

Only problem is that it can sometimes be a chore the get running on newer systems. Which is why it'd be kinda nice to see it get the GOG treatment.

Doesn't completing Sands of Time unlock the original game in the start menu? I'm sure I heard it did...

Oh yeah. This place needs Oni. I'd buy that in a blink. I hope the Anniversary mod is coming along nicely.

Hmmm, FF9? I dont think it was released on PC, was it?

I dont think it would be that hard to get Squenix on board. They dont seem to be hard to deal with. But i do think it would be difficult to get FF7 and 8 here. For some reason Squenix does look like to have totally forgotten about their PC ports at all. The good thing about getting Squenix on board would be the possibility of getting Eidos games, like Thief.

You are right !
I play FF9 on PC but using an emulator !
;P
My bad.

Anyway I don't thing there are a chance to get FF7 on GOG.
Square will never release that games without the CD-Check or some form of DRM on it.

Chaos Gate, The Neverhood, Grim Fandango, Star Wars: Dark Forces, Traitor's Gate, Myst III Exile, any good Talonsoft Wargame such as Rising Sun, Nam/WWII GI, Sam and Max games, Homeworld 2. I'm sure there are more...my memory sucks.

I wasn't going to list them but I'd probably insta buy Road Rash, Thief 1 and 2, and any other super classics I missed growing up.
