Sir Carcass

...Dungeon Keeper

Big Classy

Black & White? (Sticking with the EA theme here)

Sir Carcass

Well, Dungeon Keeper was Bullfrog, which is owned by EA.

Big Classy

Well, I knew that, obviously. I mean c'mon.

Yessss.

The only thing is this would mean it isn't Lucasarts which would make me sad.

But EA would be great as well.

Big Classy

You guys can hate me but I'd rather it be EA. I have fond memories of Road Rash (that was EA right?) and if they get the old FIFA games on there....... ALLMYMONIES.

Darmak

I would shit my pants if they managed to get Dungeon Keeper on that. Not just shit them, I'd shit through them and knock my chair back from underneath me. It would lift me slightly into the air, shit spraying everywhere, it'd be awful.

New clue!

What game made monsters fear you?

X-Com?

(Etherial Leader has panicked. Chryssalid has panicked. Silicoid has panicked.)

august

The only thing is that Outlaws clue is in a very traditional Western font. If that isn't hinting at the game Outlaws, someone has some 'splainin to do.

EDIT: But on the other hand Dungeon Keeper is the only real appropriate answer to the new hint, so...

But 2K owns X-com. What other games does 2K have that would fit the clues?

Someone @ GOG.com forum may have found the most solid evidence for Square-Enix/Eidos:

If the outlaws clue doesn't mean Outlaws someone at gog.com must be prosecuted for war crimes.

The 'the' makes me suspicious. "Ride with outlaws" would have made perfect sense, but no, it was "Ride with *the* outlaws". That makes me think that the 'the' is essential.

Anyone know of any games with a gang or team named "The Outlaws"? I'm not sure if there were ever any Just William games (I guess Bully, perversely, is closest!)

heenato

Except the font used for the "what game made monsters fear you" is used on the back of the box for dungeon keeper.

Death_Claw

Shit can´t wait until I get home from work tomorrow and find out which games will be on there. The only problem being I just moved and got more things than I should these last few days from steam, still I can live with eating crappy food for a few weeks, EA or LA the games they seem to be hinting at will get my money the moment I see them available...

Drez

Things I want:

Quest for Glory series (too lazy to install from disc)
Full Throttle (too lazy to find the disc)
System Shock 1/2 (too lazy to get the game working in Windows 7)

Just do this for me, GoG. Just do this for me.

Drez

"What game made monsters fear you?" is definitely Tetris.

Drez

Actually, my first thought was Clive Barker's Undying...which was an awesome game that also needs to show up on GoG. I actually own two copies of it, but that would require me to put the CD in my DVD-ROM drive and everything which is such a hassle.

I still wish activision had just waited a few more months to gobble up sierra. Boxed sets for most of the quest series except the best one.

It's also the same font as Diablo.

Elimination

Now its saying "What game made you feel like a hero?"

mattclem

That is one heck of a weird 'k'.

Big Classy

Haha, completely missed that.

Look again, it says "What game made you feel life a hero".

Spoiler:

Weird, I know.

I don't think Omikron runs on Windows 7 at all, so a GoG release would be nice. I've been thinking of digging it out and trying, but I hate to be disappointed.

I would love to see an Omikron 2. Imagine the visuals on modern systems...

The "f" in "feel" is different from that character in "like" so no, you're wrong. It's actually a long s. So it actually says "What game made you feel lise a hero" and as we all know, lise is a nickname for Alisa, which is the Slavic counterpart of Alice which means we're getting a Russian localized version of Tetris. It makes sense.

And the reason I brought up Quest for Glory was that question. "So you want to be a hero?"

You just blew the mind right out of my head.

New clue!

Spoiler:

Zxerol

It's totally this

cwoac

Alone in the dark would be the obvious choice, but that was infogrammes, which (according to the all knowing wikipedia) is now atari, who are already onboard to gog, aren't they?

Zxerol

I'm also totally not serious.

Although that game was actually fairly decent, from what I remember.

TeeMan

My money is still on Thief

Kelor

Chrysalid nighttime terror missions were pretty fucking scary.

If it is xcom, I'm not frigging buying it *again* Done that enough times already.

But Thief made you *love* the dark; the dark was your friend.

cwoac

I wonder if they are all teasing the same game. Even ignoring the fonts, that would be a pretty special game. dungeon delving nyctophobic space cowboys? I'm sold

Actually, I'm pretty sure every clue could be construed as pointing to Ultima (the series as a whole, not just one title). Yes, including the space travel stuff.

Sir Carcass

Well, I guess we'll find out in about 4 hours (as well as what today's Steam sale is)

TeeMan

Haha oh man, Adam West's voice in XIII sounds really out of character considering every time he speaks I instantly think of Family Guy. Sucks the drama right outta the scene It's awesome

Also, this game in general is actually kind of great. It's like a late 90's non-run&gun/HL shooter polished to within an inch of it's life. I like this era of FPS so this'll be a good ride The lack of any auto-aim what so ever has given me a bit of a learning curve though, curse you modern mechanics!

hamdingers

So... none of these clues make me think its Dungeon Keeper.

Not even "What game made monsters fear you?"?
