:-D Anyway to be notified when this launches?

Yeah, write a post-it note saying "Check GOG next Tuesday for EWJ" and stick it on your monitor.
New stuff announced every Thursday, new stuff up for grabs every Tuesday. That's supposedly how it goes.

Hope it's announced this Thursday then.

Er.
It's already announced.

Yeah, but it doesnt have a release date :(

It says tthe 7th, i cant wait, that was my freakin childhood playing the earthworm jim games. Most kids looked up to superman or batman or something i looked up to a worm in a power suit that rides around on a pocket rocket.

Looks brilliant. Back in the day, I always wanted to play this as it seemed to be a great platform game (rather like Zool, but with nicer graphics). which hadn't been seen often on the PC before. Looking forward to it :)

They'll likely release Interplay's DOS port of EWJ1. Was it similar to Activision's Win95 release? That was a port of the Sega Mega CD version (it had a terrific red book audio soundtrack), except enhanced with 256 colour graphics.

The DOS release is missing the Intestinal Distress level from the Genesis and 95 versions and the Big Bruty level from 95. :(

woooo... downloading now.

Well....
No problem installing (XP)
gamepad controls work fine.
EWJ1 seems to have some kind of graphical error on the left side of the screen (like a flashing edge where the graphics are slightly messed up)
Both don't seem to support V-Sync (even when forced)
I guess there may be some DosBox setting to fix these issues... I hope so anyway.

OK.. I tried every one of the different graphic settings, but there is still the same problem in EWJ1 (EWJ2 seems fine for some reason.)

Sure, thanks.
