Confused...

In the deal of the week, you have the original game/DLC's,
The Japanese Incentice, AND the Gold Edition.

Doesn't the Gold Edition include everything? If so, why do you
offer all three for sale?

Gold includes base game + dlc. The Japanese Incentive DLC is discounted as well for those who already have the base game.

Kabus: Come on GOG! Call EA and release The Godfather games here!
Now you're talking! A buddy bought that years back and lent it to me and I got totally addicted to it for like a week straight and completed it several times. Awesome game! Eventually a few years later I found it in a bargain bin and bought it and installed it a few times on a much better computer meaning to get addicted all over again but got sidetracked by the zillions of games I've got kicking around now. ;oP Have it sitting about 18" in front of me staring at me every day and going to have to throw it on this beast some day again and have at it. I haven't had a DVD player in my PC for months now though, need to buy a new one for these old CD/DVD based games. Mind you, I think I'd rebuy many if not most of the 100-200 CD/DVD based games I own again from GOG if/when they're ever added to the catalogue here just for the huge convenience. The Godfather is Grand Theft Auto'ish but with a bit more mature storyline and mafia style action, totally addictive!

I never did get to play the second game though and never even saw it anywhere. Dunno if you can even buy it anymore either. One way or another... I have to get Godfather II for sure! GOG, help a fellow gamer out here! Please, oh please.... make us an offer we can't refuse! ;o)
I don't mind DLC, but this is muddied. Owning Omerta and the 4 DLC, I'm still being sold the "Gold edition". I'd like to see two things...

1. GOG should understand I wouldn't want to buy the gold edition just to get a single DLC. This is what I expect from a service oriented game site like GOG. Its the little things that set it apart from the massive retailers. As of now, when I visit the Omerta gamepage (that I already own) it tells me I can get the pack I already own as part of the gold edition.

2. If I were to buy the final DLC, my version should be upgraded to the gold version. (assuming single installer in the gold version).

IMHO, the thing people hate the most about DLC is the feeling of incompleteness. This setup really puts the spotlight on the fact that everyone who "completed" their game, no longer has a complete game. Giving people a way to "complete" their purchase without having to re-buy the majority of it would go a long way.
If you have the base game and other 4 DLC why dont u just buy the japanese incentive dlc by itself to complete your omerta collection here? (yes you dont get the gold edition icon on your shelf as others seemed to indicate)....

Well, you don't get one of you buy the Gold Edition. The Gold Edition as it stands on the store is a separate gamecard/product that allows you to buy the base game and the Japanese Incentive DLC for a lower price than if you were buying the base game and then added the remaining DLC.

In short, you don't get a unified installer or a Gold Edition cover. I hope that helps :)

cameroncr95: I thought this was "Good" old games?
Whats so good about this game?
Not sure I follow you - if your issue is with "good" then that's something highly subjective; if it's about "old" then it's quite funny coming from someone that joined GOG almost two years after they started selling new(er) games.
Can we get the gold edition in our library if we already have the base game and the expansion?

JudasIscariot: uy the Gold Edition. The Gold Edition as it stands on the store is a separate gamecard/product that allows you to buy the base game and the Japanese Incentive DLC for a lower price than if you were buying the base game and then added the remaining DLC.

Would be nice to write somewhere on the gamecard ; gold edtion isn't an unified installer. As it written actually it could be interpreted as just what you said or its contrary :s . Especially regardless the games shelves titles .....

Game title in the shelves : "Omerta: City of Gangsters (4 DLCs included) + 4 DLC"

well honestly that's not clear :

if i look in the detail ;

"Original game: Omerta: City of Gangsters (4 DLCs included) " (at the right, games are displayed in list)

"DLC: The Japanese Incentive"

it doesn't matches ....

regardless the non marked icon for the gold version , well it's a non sense..... why in this case i have the contrary for Divinity Dragon Commander : + DLC -> and the imperial edition is marked as owned.

You could do better to handle DLC / Gold edition, i see a good numbers of posts from users who are confused about this issue....

Gah, this is messy. Still is. Years -or a year- after release. It is March 2015 now, finally got 'round to this title and found some time to sate my curiosity about it, give it a try.

Now I have Omerta: CoG version 2.3.0 sitting on my GOG shelf (needs dusting), and right below, patch version 2.3.0.

I'd assume, based on the matching version numbers (2.3.0), that I do not need to download and install a patch sporting the same version number as the main download, naturally...

Naturally? Well, due to the fact that this whole packaging deal and every thread I found looks messy, with not one, but at least two patch-related threads (both still pinned!) and both old, I can't be absolutely sure.

(Side note: hence, I am now effectively 'necroing,' which seems to be considered a 'faux-pas,' or 'gauche,' or some bloody sacrilege against Holy Forum dogma in most places as soon as a month after the last post - have we become a race of gnats or one-day-to-live fruit flies, btw?)

So what's the deal with this '+4 DLC' vs. 'Gold' vs. 2.3.0 patch garbled mess(age)?

There's no clear information for the hopeful player about any of this in the details of the game (or even more fittingly, in the download details of the 'Library' of owned games when you click on the title in question and expand it).

Shouldn't there be such details, readily accessible and clear, really?... Pretty damn relevant, and easy to insert.

And I'm sorry, but what does this mean:

JudasIscariot: Well, you don't get one of you buy the Gold Edition.
Meaning: you don't get the bloody Gold icon (of 'awesome uberness') or such, "of" [sic] / if you do buy the Gold Edition? (Sure, makes as much sense as the rest of this garbled mess. In keeping with the garbled theme, I guess, but whatever...)

Translation, please? Final word about what's what?

(Hopefully by someone whose message doesn't need to be interpreted or decoded? Much appreciated in advance if any such individual, capable of a clear and unambiguous answer, knows for a fact and comes forward with this basic information. Semantics get a bad rap and some consider it a pejorative, but precise semantics and semantic logic have a perfect purpose in conveying a clear message, and are essential for anyone trying to communicate, let alone anyone representing an official source in some sort of public relations capacity.)

The difference is that the Gold version of the game also includes the DLC Omerta: The Japanese Incentive (which contains a whole new campaign). As far as I remember the Gold version (with the installed The Japanes Incentive) also never suffered from the game-breaking bug.

If you are not sure if you have to install the patch, just download it (it's just 10 MB) and try to install it on top of the installed 2.3.0 version. If you don't need it, the installer will tell you so.
Omerta, one of the worst rated games on GOG, does surely everything it can to get a bit of attention. What comes next? Another DLC and then a Platinum Edition?

So on the game shelf it will probably get unbundled again and look as if one would have bought the two items separately?

LOL... Cheeky monkey. ;-)

Sorry, Judas - but you did get JC killed...LOL. And, as a result (?!), now another JC got fired from Top Gear - all your fault, Judas! :P (Yep, all that is perfectly logical, I assure you. ;-)

Well, I guess --since I've downloaded everything that was there (patch included)-- I'll just double-click everything in the right order and install all there is in the download directory.

Then get into the foetal position and hope for the best?... :-)
Effing Kalypso & Sons & Co. Ltd. Inc. - and all their bloody progeny for ages to come...
May they wither and wilt of great pox and puss-oozing bubonic pustules for countless generations to come. (A bit too much?... :-)

(If you hear a loud "crash'n'bang," you'll know what happened: just another p*****-off customer... with just another f*****-up installation of Omerta: City of Gang-bangers feeling utterly and properly raped... Oh well.)
