I'd love to see Risen here. I recently bought the 360 version and tried my best to love it, but the 360 version is just too awkward and glitchy. I hear the PC version is much better, but it has SecuROM on it, even the Steam version. Maybe the game will drop in price enough once the sequel comes out that a GoG version might be viable.
You know I keep seeing this "360 Risen Port was Terrible!" Honestly I bought the game on my 360 and have played it through 2-3 times and it really isn't that bad of a port from PC-Console but maybe I have a high tolerance for weird controls, the only thing I can say negative about it is that some of the rock faces seemed stretched across and not smoothed out otherwise great game on the 360 I'd definately suggest it to any RPG Console player.
As always: you should bugger the developer / publisher if you'd like a specific game to appear here, not the GoG guys...

TheEvilAlex: What I meant is, I wish that Pyrhana Bytes would partner up with GOG and we would see they're new games treated like The Withcer 2 is.
You guys are aware, that the main problem here was, is, and probably will always be - DRM free?

We now have the first upcoming major release offered drm free from day one since.... years? Decades? Ages?
Yet you wish / dream / demand (pick what suits you best) another major release from a different developer / publisher to get the same treatment? I have no idea what you're smoking, but I want that too....

My friend says the same thing. And I'm guessing it's because he liked Gothic 1, but hell, I finnished Gothic 1, 2+NOTR,3 so maybe I would enjoy it to.

Yeah I do. Piranha Bytes arent that kind of dev's that worrie about they're game beeing pirated, they expect it to be pirated. They have proven them selfes as a great developer through out the years, and they have developed, a small, but dedicated fan base that will buy any of they're games. Taking out DRM will only expand\strengthen that fan base. Also if it gets released on GOG it will probably grab the atention of all the Witcher fans, and this site doesn't lack those.

- I honestly don't want to start with the Gothic / PB fan base. There's so much controversy in that alone, we could fill several pages about it. Let me just point out that imho a lot of them are closing in on a "fanatic" status, with it's positive and all negatives sides.
- how big is the chance, that someone is a Witcher fan, but hasn't touched or at least is aware of the Gothic / Risen games? 2% maybe?
- again: you want PB releasing their stuff here - ask them, not GoG.
