I get all the reviews on the game card now. :) But they are still "closed" (i.e. displayed with the lovely "Read more" button). Is there any way to display the full reviews and also the full goodies and full GOG description?

Edit: I found it. You have to be logged in to get access to the options.

And the reviews are opened now. :) It looks like there's no option to also open the game description, the goodies and the system requirements though. But at least this only requires a few clicks.

You can use this:

All hail, Eli too!



I see no-one did the Konung games covers yet, so here they are. Hope you like them.
I don't know their IDs as I don't have them, sorry.

Cheers for the covers.

From MaGog's entry for Konung 1 + 2:
"Unbundled into 2 sub-games (in this order): [Names Unknown] (Konung 1 = 1455290088; Konung 2 = 1455290259)"

You're welcome.

Seeing the IDs, I wonder if there's a pattern to them. I mean the games were released together, yet their IDs are quite far apart.

They don't delete the game page data when they remove the game, they just hide it. As seen when "Freedom Force vs The 3rd Reich" recently returned, as it reappeared with the original votes and reviews intact (which is why FFv3R has 495 votes and 21 reviews, while FF has only 47 votes and 4 reviews).

While on the subject on unlikely wishes, I still hope that GOG begins selling PlayStation titles bundled with a PC PSX emulator.

Actually, they're not far apart, as IDs do not increment by one, but rather by 100-200. So these are either consecutive IDs or perhaps separated by one.

I suspect IDs are actually in hexadecimal, not decimal, and possibly having one or two CRC digits, but never bothered to actually check it.

P.S. We recently got one game with an ID beginning with 2, which was a surprise.

Could it be that the last digits are for different versions of the same game? Hero edition, Kickstarter edition, Royal edition etc?

Not AFAIK, but I didn't study it closely. It's hard to tell because many get released together.

In the past, when IDs were at 12..., they used to increment by 10, IIRC.
Now, with IDs at 14..., many tend to increment by 99.

Someone should research it. All the information is on MaGog.

Thanks for doing those Hyper, I'll get them uploaded as soon as I can.

And thank you for the IDs :)

And thank you both for continuing to be my assistants in all areas, I really appreciate it :)
You too probably now as much about the script as I do at this point ;)
I got a little excited when someone in the unofficially announced games thread suggested they were dates in milliseconds, but that 2 one destroyed that theory...

I might look into it at some point if I get a chance, it would be handy for utilising SPCM's leak if we could predict likely IDs...

Is it possible to just pull a list of IDs from MaGoG? (I suppose some other data might actually be useful though, release dates and series at least to spot any similarities etc.)

No. The closest is to select only the Image/Forum/ID column, get all the fields of that column alone, then post-process it.

I always thought they were Unix timestamps. That would make a difference of about 3 minutes for the 2 games.

But that definitely wouldn't fit into my theory.

I thought so. As I said, I'd probably need some extra data anyway so I'd probably just do a normal search with the columns I wanted.
Thanks :)

THIS IS GOG!
