Hi

Great site - have just discovered.
What about getting Gods - the Bitmap game?

Thanks.
It'd be better if they packaged it with the other BB games though. I managed to snag a copy of the compilation off eBay that comes with Speedball 2, Xenon 2 and Magic Pockets.

But if you want it, you can vote for it here:

I refuse. :p

More seriously, GOG's catalogue is growing slowly but surely, and usually most have no idea where it's going. If GOG has struck a deal with whoever owns the rights to that game's stuff, it could be added. Without such an agreement between the parties, all is lost! Except if they make a deal later on. It's all very complicated, kind of like dating many people at the same time.
I had assumed all classic developer studios would be EA's or Squeenix's property by now, but apparently they still retain the license for their games:

I think the ones I most want to be added are the Z series.

Yes!!! Z and the sequel, Steel Soldiers or whatever it was. I'd buy them instantly.

Gods alone is not worth $6 at least for me, but maybe that is because it is a mere platform jumping/puzzle game, almost like a SNES game. They should either bundle it with other Bitmap Brothers games as suggested by someone. Or, introduce a new lower price point, like $1.

Frankly, to me Gods and Magic Pockets were generic shovelware already when they came out, not sure if I consider them great classics, but then not all GoG games necessarily are. Speedball 2 would be great though (but I have it already).

What the heck was that game I had that was like Speedball in 3D? I think it was PS1 era - may have to see if I can dig it out at some point...
