Additionally, today GOG announced the launch of the GOG Dreamlist. As GOG say: "The GOG Dreamlist is a way to tell us, “This game mattered to me”, and to help us convince publishers to bring it back. Your votes keep the fire burning, even when negotiations get tough – for the games that are worth the fight."
