It’s on like Donkey Kong! Have a burning question that needs answering? Feel the need to find out what it sounds like when a Frenchman, a Polish native, and an American with hearing in one ear try to sing “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey?* Ask us any question you’d like, from now until noon or so EDT, and we’ll pick as many as we can to answer for you. You can either leave a comment here in the forums, or else hit us up @gogcom on Twitter and ask us there instead.

Sadly, Marcin has contracted a case of food poisoning and is busy at home being wretchedly sick. We know, you were looking forward to more meme-y goodness. We hope that we will suffice, by ourselves.

This is our eight surprise in GOG.com's Holiday Celebrations. Don't know what we're talking about? For the first two weeks of December, we're going to reveal a little something for you once a day, until December 14 when we reveal the BIG surprise!

*Note: We will not sing Journey--or anything else--no matter how much you ask.
GOG has been constantly worked on since the official launch back in September. What are your current top three priorities in terms of fixing and adding features to the site and service (not including publisher deals, promos and games)?

While I appreciate that you want to make all the games compatible with Windows 7, what do you predict will be the toughest games to get working?

Can we expect to see more Win 7 compatibility updates in the near future?

Furthermore, would it be possible to implement a feature that tells us you've updated the game since we last downloaded it?

How long do you think it will be until the support message system is back up / replaced? What is the best means of getting customer support in the meantime?

Will you make it possible to have user wish lists optionally viewable by others at some point in the future?

Is a PM system possible?

What were your first PC gaming experiences?

There must be some gems in there to give you enough inspiration to keep GOG running.

Here are a few different questions:
1)Will you ever support online only games that may have issues on new systems like Ultima Online?
2)Are there any plans to extend the catalog to include older indie games such as Avernum?
3)Have Eidos/Square shown any interest in GoG? A simple yes or no would suffice as legal mumbo jumbo would stop you from talking about it anymore I'm sure.
4)How far back do you consider going for games?
5)Since acquiring Torment and Baldur's Gate how much easier has it been to get big publishers in talks?
6)What are some of the games YOU guys want to see on here?
Hi!

I'm wondering what your thoughts are on making it easier for linux users to play the games? I'm thinking of things like the packaging of the dosbox games or any other more general ideas to improve the situation?
where in the hell is system shock 2 already? is that not the definition of a good old game?

seriously, who owns the I.P. to system shock, because that is the game I've been hoping for every day since gog.com was started.
What are your plans in improving the current 'hidden' wishlist?
I've got a few questions.

- Do you know who holds the rights to games that Sir-Tech self-published (especially the Wizardry series)? If so, have you any plans for a deal? Their games are at ridiculous prizes on eBay.

- Any plans on making deals with publishers that made some of their games freeware (like Revolution)? That may attract quite a few peoples to GOG.

- Are you planning to add some kind of "update history" to the game installers (probably on the game shelves). That would be interesting to quite a few computer savvy GOGers (or anyone who wonders if any of their games had been updated since they last downloaded). I know it has been asked with the last compatibility update, but there has been no answer.

That's all I have now.
Do you expect to add new price points to future games?

Anymore GodGames published titles coming such as Oni or Heavy Metal FAKK 2?
Here's my question. (OK, technically, three questions, bur they belong together.)
Is there one game in the GOG catalogue which you find SO GREAT that, if you could, you'd give it away for free to every GOG user so we have no excuse for not playing it? If so, which game is it?
If there are more than one such games, which ones are those?
I have some more questions! (I don't know how you are going to answer all the questions on this forum!)

Would you ever consider releasing games for other systems with the use of emulators?

What are your all time favourite retro PC games that are not on GOG at the moment?

If you guys could pick one publisher that you could get a deal with - who would it be?

Thanks for listening!

Question

Dear GoG Monks
I wanted to ask that since you allready have Sierra games up on the site when will the Quest for Glory series be added (really really want this game :) ) and how would it be released? (an example would be Heroes Quest, Quest for glory, and Quest for Glory 2 in the first back then the 3rd, 4th and 5th in the second pack????????)

Thank you :)
