Mysterious Countdown Ticks Away at GOG.com

[MR T3D]

my first instinct was TIE fighter, but i suppose Deus Ex would make sense.

 

[SharedProphet]

My first thought was that it would be one or more Ultima games.

 

[Jared]

The end is nigh!!! Oh noes~~~

seriously though...I have no idea. I'll be watching though!!!

 

[InventiveHero]

River City Ransom.

 

[Andy Chalk]

Two characters that complement each other beautifully: JC and Paul, perhaps?

Hmmmmmmmmm?

 

[reg42]

Hmm... this intrigues me...

 

[Zerbye]

How about the #1 game on GOG's "Most voted by the community" wishlist? I'll wager System Shock 2.

Supposedly "Official Hints" posted by a moderator in the GOG forums:
1. The return of incredible karmic awareness.
2. Where history overlaps with the present time.
3. They are two different characters, but they complement each other beautifully.

It'll be a huge fanfare, than an ad will come up saying 'Want to know how to get ripped in 4 weeks?'

I just know it.

My friend got so pissed with those ads that he took the background image and "ripped" everyone on his MSN FL. Pretty good photoshop skills, better than those used for the actual adverts.

Although I haven't played it, perhaps it's Ico? Reading the comment about the "two characters" seems to make this one valid, but I could be horribly, horribly wrong.

Although that doesn't make sense considering Ico's not a PC game...

Two different characters, but they complement each other beautifully... Here's an idea: Sam & Max?

I'm sure the first clue comes into the plot somewhere.

Oh, so it's Final Fantasy VIII?

If it was, I'd be a happy man.

Can't see it happening, though.

I, suppose with that hint, one of the original Sam & Max games is a possibility...

Good idea, but Sam and Max are the antithesis of "karmic awareness".

 

[LTK_70]

I noticed when I bought Real Myst just yesterday. I'm gonna hold off speculation just to be surprised tomorrow.

"Expect the unexcelled".

Sounds right.

 

[Spitfire175]

Planescape Torment?

That would be too good to be true.

I predict some wall coloured blandness.

 

[George Palmer]

Clearly its "World of Care Bears". Duh!

 

[Faulty Turmoil]

Maybe it's a countdown to the end of the world?
