GOG.com Not Really Gone 276
gspr writes "On Sunday, Slashdot and many others reported that DRM-free games site GOG.com was shutting down. Now the site is back, revealing that it was all a hoax. According to the site: 'Now it's time we put an end to all the speculations once and for all. It's true that we decided that we couldn't keep GOG.com the way it was so we won't. As you probably know by now, GOG.com is entering its new era with an end of the two-years beta stage and we're launching a brand new GOG.com with new, huge releases.' So it was all an advertising stunt."

I have the original box for Discworld II - Missing, Presumed...? but the discs are, sadly, long gone.
I can't be the only one who noticed the irony.

Apparently they'll be selling Baldur's Gate when they relaunch. Given that, I don't think I'd care if they had choked a puppy. I would still forgive them.
