Well, a 2007 game here just means that now Colin McRae Dirt is officially old enough. Awesome. I'll just keep waiting. :D

Given that the earlier Colin McRae 2005 was recently removed because of licensing issues outside GOG's control and the forum outrage that followed, making the team promise to avoid such licensing issues in the future, don't hold your breath.

It's not as good as any GTA game or memorable like the first Driver, but it's still quite enjoyable. Loved the music - they put together some great artists.

Pc Guru's (hungarian gaming magazine) full game is Driv3r in this month.

Wow. Those physics just aren't right. But fun to watch anyway.

Sorry, but I think parallel lines is not good and not old at all :S But then again, I just played the Wii version some years ago :P

Damn, i thought it was Driver 1. That game was awesome, unlike the other sequels. :( Give me Driver 1, i'll pay 10 bucks for it. :D

Solution, buy and download it quickly. Want Dirt. :) And Grid.

Very poor game in my opinion. If you are a huge GTA, Mafia, Saints Row...fan and want something near similar, maybe you enjoy it. Poor graphics, decent BSO and control, but boring missions...
PD: BSO means OST :)

Controversial game. Love it or hate it. Wide spread of Metacritic ratings (lots of 80, lots of 60) says it all.

Firek: I think it's because of the game's bad press - it didn't sell very well, because it was a sequel to Driv3r, which wasn't too popular with the reviewers and gamers. Many people would think the series could only go downhill from there, or something...
only played it for a bit and enjoyed the gameplay and setting immensely and I know at least one team member who absolutely loves Parallel Lines. :) It's a matter of preference and giving the game a chance. :)

By the way, I like that you guys release some games not universally liked. I see them as having the "GOG stamp of approval" so to speak. So despite some people really disliking it, I am still curious to check these games out. :)

Well, at least those who bought the games can still download them. It's more a question of grabbing them while you can (or waiting for a soon-to-be-removed sale).

Navagon: Well, at least those who bought the games can still download them. It's more a question of grabbing them while you can (or waiting for a soon-to-be-removed sale).

The conclusion, as I understood it, was that: Because the need to make the games unavailable for purchase stirred up pretty strong emotions (and not the good ones) among the GOG community, the team will try to steer clear of similar license deals.
I may of course have understood it wrong, and I hope we at least get a chance to purchase the games we want, even if outside forces may require they be made unavailable after a while.
