Here's your weekly Message From GOG returns!

Oh, happy day! Friday--also known as "the blessed day of freedom"--has finally come! And since it's Friday, here's a new episode of This Week on GOG, a short video guide to recent events, promos, and other happenings on the site. By the way, if you haven't already, you might want to follow the GOG.com channel on YouTube, so you won't miss our shows, specials, and exclusive trailers.

That's it from us today. Check out our Super 5 special indie release promo, our regular Strategy First and Seconds weekly promo, and have a nice weekend! :-)

Repulsive? Maybe its Re-Volt (as in revolting)
http://www.mobygames.com/game/re-volt
Which would mean that GOG is still raiding the Acclaim cookie jam somehow!
This one DID get a android an iOS version recently though so maybe these WeGo people have got the rights to all formats?

I've just had a thought - who votes that the first person to correctly post the answer to the enigmatic clue in this thread each week should win a free copy!

I certainly do! :-D

Whiplash?


But I'm also thinking along the same lines as Re-volt since they got Shadowman and from the clue above about revolting.
Point and click adventure fans must be having a ball these days. The whole front page is point and click adventures aside from Shadow Warrior, and recently also was also I Have No Mouth and Kyrandia. Although we did just get five new adventure/puzzle like platformers.

Aside from Thunderscape, it's been a little slow for RPG's (Lords of Midnight is supposed to be a strategy/RPG though).

I'm eagerly anticipating the next big RPG release :)

Finally!!!
I was starting to worry did you guys forget to dig out Enigmatic T from the sand. :)

Dzsono: I wonder how many times TET had to do that long description of Lo Wang before he got it right? :D

TheEnigmaticT: First try. Got it on the very first one. I was as surprised as anyone. :P
But surely it was sped a up a little?! In any case, I'm impressed!

HertogJan: London sounds like Square Enix/Eidos.
I can't watch the vid at work. If it's a racegame, it could be Rally Championship (Xtreme) or Carmageddon II and/or TDR 2000.

We already have them aboard, so that's not terribly exciting to me (unless they're working out a way to release FF7 on here). I was kind of hoping one of the Big 3 we're still missing had offices in London, but perhaps not. Oh well. :P

As for the clue, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi-Octane might fit in that it's still "repulsive" vehicular combat but no civilians are involved. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8m58KBhkzw
Hopefully the add-on will automatically be included: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hi-Octane#Addon

Looks like we're closing in on all the Bullfrog games that can be brought!

Really hope the Theme Park issues will eventually get straightened out. Could Theme Park Inc. or Theme Park World utilize nGlide?

I feel like there were not enough people frothingly happy at this return.
Glad to see This Week on GOG is back! As a side note, when you are playing the Shadow Warrior clip (0:59-1:33) it has icons in the top left for Mac and Windows. While Shadow Warrior Classic is available for both, Shadow Warrior is currently Windows only. Which was one hella tease. :(

Oh I'm so glad "This Week on GOG" is back :D I enjoy it a lot! Thanks for continuing it! ^^

AdamR: What was the hint? High speed game that is repulsive, but not a threat to civilians?
I will sit here and believe that it is Giana Sisters: Rise of the Owlverlord.
Sure, it doesn't really fit the description but I am soooo looking forward to that title.
Nice to have this gig back, good stuff!
Could the hint be Wacky Wheels?

I think you got it right, and I really hope you are right. It was a great racing game. Except, technically they cars might be hazardous to pedestrians if they stepped onto them (slipping hazard). :P
TET is back with his sexy voice! <3

Even my girlfriend agrees that TET has the sexiest voice in gaming, regardless of his enthusiasm!

Oh, and TET, I'd bite you any time! ;-)

Has she ever heard Karl Franz's voice in Warhammer: Dark Omen ? :-D
