GOG.com announces the release of Grim Fandango Remastered for Windows, OS X, and Linux, offering an updated edition of the LucasArts classic. This is also available on Steam and probably elsewhere as well. In addition, GOG.com also announces that LucasFilm on GOG.COM: Wave II continues" (not to be confused with Wave III, which would be a whole different thing), as they have added Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II, Star Wars: Republic Commando, and Star Wars: Starfighter to their DRM-fee marketplace, with each carrying a 20% launch discount. Here's word on the Grim Fandango remake:

Grim Fandango is just one of those games, it doesn't really need much of an introduction. The unique blend of Mexican folklore with film noir stylings - Tim Schafer's last and greatest hurrah as LucasArts' adventure-gaming-extraordinaire - is widely considered to simply be the best adventure game ever made. Grim Fandango Remastered refreshes and refines the award-winning title, finally making a piece of history available to everyone - hassle-free with no need to leave the dry land. The remaster modernizes the game's presentation and gameplay in a way that improves, but does not distort, the original experience. That means higher quality models and textures, but a familiar unaltered art style; the same musical score as before, re-recorded in higher quality with no unnecessary compression; and perhaps best of all: a new point-and-click interface - but one that is fully optional - the original tank controls are just a few clicks away.
