Are there any plans to bring the Linux versions of Saints Row 2 or 3 over to GOG ?

Steam just got it so they really should.
Linux versions will be instant buy for me.

Because I'm in Germany, I only get the censored versions on steam.
And there is no low-violence version of SR2 for linux.
I would really appreciate it honestly.
I remembler blindly buying the Metro series thinking a Linux version would be available shortly after the SteamOS versions but no...

Hope it'll happen sooner for the Saints Row series.
When there are no versions of a game within the next days after release on GOG there will be no more activity in this direction within the next years. I know this is not true for all and everything, but that describes absolutely correct my experience: No Metro, no Tropico 5, no Dungeons 2, no Dying Light, no Star Wars: Knights of the old Republic 2 and the list grow longer everytime there is a new release for Linux.

I'm quite sceptical too. I'm thinking about buying Saints Row 4 on Steam, because it has a Linux version and I'm not convinced that any version (even only the Windows version) will come to gog.

Edit: Even the OSX version of Turok is still missing.

Would be interesting if the Steam-version also needs the client to run!

Actually, it sounded like there may have been some movement on that. As in Judas' threats.

Aspyr rep stated they are working on this. Far too slowly, but it should be coming.

Well, it would be. Faulty memory on my part though. They only mentioned bringing the patch here and not specifically additional platforms.

What a shame, but they are also in best friendship though. Most developers and publishers seem not to care about the DRM-free Linux-versions here. :(
Hopefully GOG will try their best to get the native Linux versions.
It's on sale now... So hard to resist, but I think I will wait for Linux version to show Linux support.
