serpantino: I'd be interested to know a bit about how GOG finally managed to get this on here. Not too interested in the game itself but I'd love to know a bit of how GOG wrangled this one out of rights limbo.

timppu: "Do you remember where you were when System Shock 2 was re-released on GOG?"

I was in a meeting, so I missed it completely. :(
I was at work :P

Pidgeot: If you only take those parts and decode them correctly, you get a secret message.

The decoded message reads "Remember Citadel!".

Roses are blood-red,
Violets--mana-blue,
Love is in the air,
And some Wi-Fi too!

...I wrote in today's Cupid's Cupcake promo (you know, the one that probably nobody noticed). It's hardly poetry, I know, but I thought it wasn't that bad. Then I misread your post and thought you were calling me a Vogon, becuse of my crappy boring writing. I felt bad. But then I noticed, that it actually says Vorlon. Oh. That's a relief. A Vorlon I can be.

Yes.

The crystal shard in SS2 has many more edges than just three! God damn it, T! I keep telling you that you need to learn your games ;-)

tarasis: My god, you are going to release the cancelled but nearly complete Sierra B5 game aren't you.

:)
I wish. I was so upset when I heard they cancelled that.

BreOl72: Instabought and downloaded!

Btw: Nice shocker on the main page, when shodan opens her eyes.

Question: Two Installers, [english (2.0.09) and german (2.0.0.5)], what's the difference?

Only the changed colour of blood, or something else?
The German version doesn't show people who are hanging from ropes. There are a couple of them and one is in the Med section.

Have you tried running it as administrator? All the problems I've had with GOG games were fixed like that.

0ndori: Tried as you suggested with no results.
Have you contacted Support for help?
