It looks like it's still in beta, so it probably will come to GOG after the release, or if they'll start the beta program (aka "early access") before that. I'd prefer the release version of course.

I'm now playing the Linux release of the Quest for Infamy that I got on GOG. It's a very good game (it was funded through Kickstarter).
In the process I also learned about the AGS engine (it's open source engine for making adventure games) and dealt with some bugs there.
Yep, they promised the countdown during their last Q&A. So it's probably Disney (I hope so). May be we'll see the classic Lucasarts adventures and the Outlaws on GOG
There is a hidden hint that it's indeed Disney / LucasArts. Take a look at GOG countdown on the front page. I just saw some numbers there which used the font from the Monkey Island! For example 10 in the minutes position.

GOG leaked some information about the upcoming games. It's going to be 30 titles, with 6 appearing as a first batch (details here). You can just wait a bit more for the official announcement if you don't want to spoil the list.

I guess so. They prepared some post in advance (it takes time) but probably forgot to make it private or something of that sort. It was removed soon afterwards, but Google already sucked it in.
THIRTY! :victory:
Oh boy, I so hope for Jedi Knight series and KotOR II in the near future :animier:
Prices don't look discounted so far. Some are even higher than GOG regular classics.

Yep. Nice thing they added them but nothing too great price wise.
That's fine. I am positive during one or another GOG sale they will have a SCUMM pack.
In case anyone didn't already know, Sam & Max Hit the Road is a seminal adventure game, both hilarious and excellent. I'd like someone to work on an Enhanced Editions of this game, with HD hand-drawn graphics and movie-quality animation.
And just for bragging rights I have a Max and Crossbones T-shirt I bought from the Telltale merch store back in the day. Both the store and the shirt aren't available anymore so I decided to stop wearing it. Should probably frame it or something.

Also, GOG apparently will release these games gradually over the course of the year (which is their usual practice in order not to flood new releases), so Loom and Full Throttle will have to wait.
X-Wing...Tie Fighter...games of my youth...I am...so moved...
I still remember the first time I launched TIE Fighters intro on my brand new 486 DX2 66Mhz, the fastest PC in the neighbourhood at that time. And the sound of jaws of my all friends that gathered around hitting the floor.

Hah, nice. I remember one of the Kickstarters for Doug TenNapel's sketches was offering a Neverhood T-shirt. But I didn't know about that one, only found it recently.

Fond memories for me too, I'd have to say not my favourite space fighter games, but extremely fun, definitely 2 of the best, kept Star Wars alive imo... and Admiral Thrawn ! Cracker antagonist.
