Love CDProjekt.

They have hinted that this was done in part to allow Aussies (and other gamers who suffer from censorship) to get the uncensored, premium, DRM-free version of Witcher 2 from their site.

These guys are worth your money.

If you are ausie then change your country to USA download it and play it.. No censhorship :)

Love GOG and their policy :)

I didn't even knew that there was a MechWarrior 5 until now. But more platforms is always good.

ZeekQuattro1562d ago

When I can get a hold of a new Xbox this game will be on my must buy list.

itsmebryan1562d ago

I know what you mean. I have never had this much trouble getting a new console this long after launch. Smh

I saw "Mech" and automatically thought of MechAssault. Man I wish they would bring that little spinoff back.

Man o man, I remember playing the shit outta this when original xbox lauched...it was the best of its kind...good times

patriz4201562d ago

Man o man I'm dumb...I was thinking Mech Assault!!! They need to bring that back ASAP

Elit3Nick1562d ago

The two belong to the same IP, BattleTech, so you'll see some mechs shared between the two, although MechAssault played more loosely with lore.

It’s not the first time a CD Projekt RED Twitter account caused controversy.

It sounds that CD used the #WontBeErased in support of sexual liberty in the face of a presidential administration gone crazy over genitals. This isn't the real issue though as GOG latched onto the tag to promote its site which seems a lot less noble even if the poster truly wanted to show GOG's support for the trans community. They deleted it so perhaps the saw how linking a sale to this campaign could have unintended reactions. Nothing to really see here.

annoyedgamer2443d ago

There is an army of tumblrites following GoG waiting to smear them after they were successfully shamed into retracting a joke about assuming gander a few weeks back. This is likely tied to that.

OB1Biker2442d ago

I love how Kotaku is losing their sht every time. Tbh they poke fun at the # protest culture but all the same making a lot of people in the world aware of issues in the US they wouldn't be aware of otherwise.
I say there s nothing shocking but the press making a fuss of it.

"It sounds that CD used the #WontBeErased in support of sexual liberty in the face of a presidential administration gone crazy over genitals."

I see Nothing crazy in being logical and making sense. There are men and there are women and some of them THINK they are the opposite.

Eonjay2441d ago

Some of them identify personally with the opposite. They have free will. You want to impose your will without regard to what they want when it has nothing to do with you. They aren't hurting you. This situation isn't limited to wanting to control sexuality however... some people think they should control every aspect of your life from what you eat to what you can wear and they feel s moral obligation to force you inside of their 'logic'. Its a sickness to not be able to tell where your sphere of influence on someone's body should end.

PowerOfTheCloud2441d ago (Edited 2441d ago )

Eonjay

People can identify with who and what they want, but the law should be based on proven facts, not subjective moods. Sure i can personally identify as t-rex, but i can't expect special treatment because i'm a member of an extinct species.

BTW Wouldn't be surprised to get banned for this, lol

AK912442d ago

I wish GOG had the balls to stick to their guns and not retract their statement after getting heat from people who can't really do much to discourage their work.

bigmalky2442d ago

You would think people copyrighted these dumb social media slogans.
