adaliabooks: Brilliant! :D

Or just give us a random picture every now and again unconnected to any game just to give us something to do ;)
You mean something from ancient times like these? :P

Ghorpm: Awww... but we love Enigmatic Hints so much!

Thiev: Probably no one is gonna post any guesses until the actual release, so what's the point? I think I'm the last Blue that had this topic pinned and it's time to let it go.
Well, it is sad, but i see your point. Anyway, even if its gone, this last one was great! :) Of course, only if you really hinted new big sale... ;) But a Mafia game is a fine too, i guess... :)


So, now we can speculate IF there is a Mafia game coming to GOG, will there be first, first and second or all three parts of the series. :) Or it is a big sale after all? :)

Thiev: You mean something from ancient times like these? :P
Yes. Yes. I keep telling you that you should be doing something like this. I even said so when I visited.
That works too, but I was thinking just give us a picture (and clue) that looks like an enigmatic hint but isn't really hinting any game. That way SCPM can't use his tricks to solve it and it will keep the rest of us busy for a few days ;)

We get bored easily you know :P
Oh yes, and other stuff like it, like the puzzles for the... I believe fifth anniversary too?

Other than that... Sad. Any way to just stop SCPM from posting in the thread? In which case if he knows it won't matter and the rest can still guess.
(If not, guess I should unfavorite the thread too, since I gather it'll die for good? :/)

Hmmm, there are very few games that fit to that hint and the 9.000 votes clue, narrowed it down greatly!

Glad we'll have another 2K game here.

That means we get 1 game closer to NOCTURNE!

My guess would be Mafia II, since the first game isn't even available on Steam and the third one only just came out last year, while Mafia II has already been bundled. Then again, Mafia III doesn't seem to have been well received, so who know, that could be an incentive for 2K to be less reluctant about selling it DRM-free on GOG? The most interesting (but in my pessimistic view least likely) event would be if GOG had exclusively managed to make the first Mafia game available on PC again.

EDIT: After checking the wishlist, I see that the first Mafia game is the only one with over 9.000 votes though. So maybe they actually did manage to bring it back?

Thiev: Now I remember why we stopped doing Enigmatic Hints. There is little point in keeping that tradition nowadays.
Alright, alright I won't do it anymore. :(
If Mafia 1 relases this week that would make a lot of people here happy, myself included. :)

Still, if that will be case I'm a bit concerned how they have managed to bring it here. Mafia was unavailable for a very long time and as the game includes a lot of licensed music many fans think that a an expired license for these music tracks might have prevented a re-relase. 2K Games was asked about the reasons many times but declined to comment:
(German) http://www.gamestar.de/artikel/mafia-2-ploetzlich-wieder-auf-steam-aber-wo-ist-mafia-1,3273448.html

Meanwhile there have been similar issues with GTA Vice City which had 10 music tracks removed from the STeam version of the game once some licenses expired:

17 tracks were removed from San Andreas:

I really hope we won't get a butchered release...

As long as I'm personally ok with threads like these (and the upcoming games and oldies and classics and features and wishlist and and and and etc coming to GOG) I can't stress out the fact that such discussions tend to... uh.. get me anxious. In a not so good way.

- "Yay, it's (today at leats? who knows!) MAFIA!!" HUZAAAAAHHH!!!
- "Yay, my game on the wishlist is growing in votes, hooorraaaay"
- "GOG where's my ________ game, eh"?

This, to me, works like a rat race. An endless one.
Not so good to the health. It's only about wishing and wishing and wishing and ignoring the fact that there are TONS of amazing games already out there and... I'll stop here.

*my 2 centavos for today* ;P

First one had few legal issues with used music. If GOG managed to resolve that - first one will get here.

Or they need money to cover expenses on Mafia III development so they will be ready to get anything they can.
But will Mafia include the original music score or have some of it removed?.The first situation would be pretty amazing to say the least,but i am somehow leaning towards the latter which is still cool.Just bring it to us GOG and 2K ;).Cheers

Do we have a default release day for classic games at this point?
