But its just as likely to be "free attractive members of whatever gender you're sexually attracted to and who are definitely on for it with every purchase".
I mean sure I'd buy a couple of games under those circumstances but I think EA is about as likely

Yeah, since EA has been dipping its toes into the Steam waters for awhile now, maybe they're looking for other ways to make moo-lah.

EDIT: And another thing: Maybe the fact that System Shock 2 has been on the top of the GOG.com Wanted list for quite awhile might have something to do with it, bc isn't EA the owner of SS & SS2 now?

Nah, because I asked about whether it was RTS (i.e. Command & Conquer) or whether it was turn-based (i.e. Civilization).
I think it's EA. It feels right, esp. since they own SimCity (turn-based strat to a degree) AND Command & Conquer (RTS).

It's Sega.

I am gonna keep my expections down so that i won't get dissapointed later. My prediction is that tomorrow's announcement is gonna be okay for some people and awesome for others.

dudes:
evil=sinister
genius=mastermind
they were dropping a mad hint. i will bet someone a gifted gog it's evil genius.
on that note, i'm excited, it's a really good game, and it's very unique. i like new experiences in gaming.

They definitely own them NOW, at least everything from Rome onwards, its just a matter of whether they have the earlier games in the series
Then again, there IS the Total War Eras box set which has the following:
"Total War: Eras gathers Windows-XP-compatible versions of Shogun: Total War, Medieval: Total War and Rome: Total War in one pack for the first time ever, together with their expansion packs - Mongol Invasion, Viking Invasion, Barbarian Invasion and the brand new Alexander. The ultimate collection for any Total War fan, the box includes an exclusive 40-minute documentary on the making of the Total War series, a glossy Art of Total War souvenir book, a CD compilation of the award-winning Total War soundtracks, exclusive art cards and more."
Firstly that implies there might be a single licence holder.
Secondly that would be a sweet pack to have on GOG

That was pretty much the way my thought processes ran

That would be cool. Always kept hearing how fun that game was, but I never got around playing it.
Overall I just like to see the announcements though, doesnt matter if its games I yearn for or just some complete randomness. It always brings a smile to see there's new stuff that I can acquire

Strategy.. :X

No way it's EA or Sega -- if it was they would've made a big fuss beforehand like they did with Ubisoft. :)
Assuming the days come when those happen though, I will faint from joy. Also Capcom.

If the hint is as transparent as it looks it couldn't be anything else than Evil Genius, a game I've never heard of before.
But. The game isn't made or published by any studio with droolage-grade IPs to my knowledge. So why is it considered to be a big announcement?

it's published by sierra which is owned by craptivision/blizzard
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evil_Genius_%28video_game%29
if they were added, then it would indeed be a drop your pants situation.

From that wiki link, Sierra sold the Evil Genius rights to Rebellion - Who are still independent. (as far as I can find out at least)

Rebellion used Sierra for publishing for a long time, like AVP and etc..
so I think it's either Sega or Craptivision.
