Some people at gog may want to try again with the Cinemaware games to correct the botched releases Cinemaware did in regards to the different prices between Steam and gog and some of their games never even making it to gog.

Voted! I hope this means we can finally get the so called "Cinemaware Anthology: 1986-1991" here on GOG.

So much for the deal we were supposed to get since a year ago to get the rest of the Cinemaware games here. Though, I can imagine Starbreeze studios would want to make some of that half a million Euros back by releasing the games here, so there's still hope.

"The classic Cinemaware games are concepts that still in this day are epic imaginations."
The guy sounds really passionate, and I could believe that he did indeed grow up playing these games, but then he says this:
"We will make them excel in excellent VR-experiences at our location based IMAX centers."

VR? What the... I don't even... Sounds like George Lucas.

It's been more than a month since the acquisition, and the Cinemaware games still haven't been removed from the catalog. Is it because Starbreeze hasn't bothered to ask GOG to remove them, or is it a sign that future "cinemware IP" games will arrive here as well?

Hell if I know, maybe they're still finalizing some legal stuff or waiting for contracts to run out?

Could be that the contract signed with GoG by Cinemaware is guaranteed to persist for a certain amount of time regardless of new ownership and such.

Well... Starbreeze has some games on GOG's catalog. Maybe that eases things somehow.

Riddick and Enclave, but neither are published by Starbreeze.

Hmm... that complicates matters.
Guess we'll have to wait and see then.
