S2 @ GOG.com

If there's anyone here who hasn't done it yet, you can vote for System Shock 2 on the "Most Wanted" games list over at Good Old Games. Here's the direct link: http://www.gog.com/en/wanted/

It is currently the number one most wanted game there, but I don't think a few more votes could hurt

I wonder how hard CD Project (they run the site, right?) have tried to get it and Planescape thus far...

Voted. I wasn't even aware that section was on the site. Seeing the game on GOG would be great because then I can buy it knowing for sure that I would be able to get it to run correctly on my machine.

If you mean CD Projekt (http://cdprojekt.com/) then no, I don't think so. If they did, The Witcher would be advertised all over GOG.com

It's actually them. They obviously consider The Witcher to be a good new game

Holy crap, that surprises me. Well, I've learned something new today! Cool.

The fact that "CD Projekt Red" isn't mentioned anywhere threw me off, I guess. Then again I haven't read all the fine print.

CD Projekt are cool, the huge free updates for the Witcher etc... It makes me think they would have tried to get System Shock 2 up there considering how wanted it is. *Shrugs*

    Too many games on the list are on Steam already, they really should put system shock 1 and 2 up on GOG.

    It's not that easy, mostly the difficulties are because GOG has no DRM in their games, that's where the publisher pulls out. And so far there are no Take-Two/EA games on the site

    I'd take it even with DRM that leaves you with 24 hours left to live.

    If GOG could they certainly would. SS2 has been leading their most wanted list for months now.

    SS2 + GoG = Instant buy.

    I think it would be for quite a few people.

    GOG guys need something like "buy all instantly"-button.

    I probably had all games at one time in my live, but I don't keep stuff.

    Steam needs some competition (direct2drive, stardock, gog, ...) just a healthier economy this way?

    I was going to post about this, but I'm glad to see that there's a forum thread for it already.

    System Shock 2 has been at the top of the GoG.com list for a long time. So has the original System Shock as well as Planescape. I own my own copy of Planescape, so all that's left seems to be some sort of deal to get these games out there. I really hope it happens.

    Add me to the list of people who would pick up SS1 and SS2 immediately if it shows up on GoG.com
