Sword-wielding gamers, shirt-ripping retailers, cake-eating customers, and ass-kicking Heads of Marketing--you will find that and much more in this series of short videos we have prepared for you guys to watch over the weekend. You can watch the first one below, but stay tuned because we will upload a new video at 12:00 PM EDT every day until Monday.

What are they for? What are they advertising? We won’t say--you know how we are--but you can look at our [url=http://imgur.com/a/TOsf2#0" target="_blank]“Making of”[/url] album for the videos here, if you’d like to speculate wildly ;)

Find out what we’re up to when the “Newer, Fresher, Bigger” GOG.com lands Tuesday at 09:00 AM GMT. Hope you guys enjoy the videos!

The DRM Knight -- [url=http://j.mp/GOGvid1" target="_blank]watch it now[/url]
The Regional Ripoff -- [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRdfYwvGTos" target="_blank]watch it now[/url]
The Complimentary Cake -- [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iXd8w2wdz8" target="_blank]watch it now[/url]
The Refined Gamer -- [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvaNgCTncLk" target="_blank]watch it now[/url]

Roman5: yeah, I know, my question was: how did it get like that in the first place? was it a broken laptop donated by someone from the team or something? :)
You may buy a laptop from "ex-lease" which is completely broken for like 10 bucks :P

El_Caz: Looks like the batch of new (as in "recent") DRM free games is right around the corner.
I wonder if Treasure adventure game was the first "new" game...

iainmet: Surprised no one at all has actually noticed or yet mentioned the little red valve on the back of the knights helmet. Start a game by Valve on Steam and it has the head with the valve sticking out of the eye, you have that very same valve on the back of the knights helmet!

bazilisek: They haven't been using the eye one for years now. These days it's a black man with a valve on the back of his head, just like the knight.

Yeah you're right there thinking about L4D2, first thing that came to mind was the guy with the valve in his eye! Either way its that same red valve from either of the variations!

See this is what I'm really curious about, how did the team get it :)

Also: That laptop should be given away as a prize in a future contest

GOG. I love you. Don't ever change. Unless for the better. If that's even possible.

:-D

Roman5: Also, just out of curiosity for the GOG team: What kind of Laptop is it and how did you agree to trash it? that laptop took one hell of a beating

Who is the person who puts on the Armour?

Where was this shot? In a Cafe in Poland?
It was an already-broken laptop. We actually had two identical (broken) ones. And we wrecked the crap out of 'em.

Jurij wore the armor. He was a great sport, especially because we didn't tell him beforehand he'd be wearing it for about five hours. I think he sweat out a kilo or two of water while filming, poor guy.

Oh, yeah: and we actually shot it in the common area of the office downstairs, but after spending a couple hundred bucks on dressing the room up like a cafe.

Probably this. It is easy to find some broken laptop.

I want that armour!

TheEnigmaticT: I'll post again since you probably didn't read my last post, but if you want to keep the two next commercials a secret, you should really remove them from youtube until tomorrow and sunday.

I have copies, but I won't post them out of respect :P

I turned 'em private, since apparently simply having them "unlisted" was insufficient.

Nope, all good now :)

The problem wasn't the unlisting, it's your linking system, pretty easy to change a digit.

Do I get a cookie?

Aaw, no cookie :(

Respect fading... fading... gone.

Hmm, now where should I post these HD GoG commercials?

gibbeynator: If that was a shot at Valve... it doesn't make sense. If anything, it looks more like they're praising Valve.
Well ... now that you mention it...

GOG.com: “Newer, Fresher, Bigger”
So DJ Jazzy Jeff is joining the GOG team? I thought he was at a Tibetan monastery trying to obtain peace after having to put up with Will Smith for so long.

If someone from the cast is going to join GOG please have mercy and let it be anyone else but Will Smith. He can't sing, he can't act, and he aint got no game. Please dear GOG have mercy on our poor souls.
