Graymatter: If I buy one of the bundles and already have some of the games, do they give me keys/gifts that I can use to share those games?
From the page: If you already own any of the games included in this collection, a redeem code that you can share with a friend will be automatically sent to you via e-mail.

Now give me your spare code!

I don't feel particularly strong about any of the three games, but I voted for Firewatch because the other two are labelled as shooters. However, I suspect Shadow Warrior 2 will win easily.

I wish there had been more variety in the options to choose. 2 out of 3 are shooters, all of them are first person perspective. But hey, gift horse so don't look in the mouth?

I predict that the two "losers" will go on a big discount anywyay.

That's what happens when you don't read the big bold box right at the top. You ask stupid questions :)

Thanks

Yes, if you own a game in the bundle, it will be a gift code for you to send to a friend/loved one/enemy.

Let's see...

Should I get Owlboy, which costs $15 (sale price)?

or,

Should I get a bundle that contains 3 games, one of which is Owlboy, for $10?

Which would you suggest?

(Editor's note: I already went ahead and bought the latter.)

I have the same dilemma. I think I'll also end up getting the bundle, even though there will be an influx of tradeable keys for Homeworld and Dragon Age.

Is it a bug that the gift codes for those games expire after 14 days? I can understand it for free games that you give away as part of a promo, but in this case we paid for the games and so they normally shouldn't expire (or at least not after such a short time span).

Rip wishlist this is as dry as it gets

That's what I was fearing.
No deal for me then.

Another sale, and yet again we see literally same games getting the same discounts. Dragon age had like 4 or 5 discounts during past 4 months. Same for system shock 2. Same for every other game on this sale. Really?

Im glad to see Stellaris there (but what s the point to buy it without workshop?), but cmon - you're killing the whole point of such events. In past, I've used to be way more enthusiastic, but now... I think, I've only purchased one or two dlcs on summer sale. Not coz I've bought everything I want - I still have about 90 titles in my wishlist. Simply coz they never get any discount, while games, I already own, goes on sale over and over.

GaG, plz, do something

Happy birthday GOG! Let's hope we are all well & celebrate together in another 10 years again :)
I have a question the answer to which I probably already know, but here goes. I have Owlboy on my wishlist since release & now seems a good time to get it. The best way (financially speaking) is to get the current bundle which also contains Homeworld & Dragon Age. BUT, those are games I will never play (neither strategies nor RPGs in my tastes) and I do not want to fill my library with games I will never touch - I know I can "hide" them, but I would prefer if they were added to someone else's library who will actually enjoy them, either by trading or giving away the codes. So, I guess there isn't a way to actually get Owlboy for me & gift codes for the other two?

Personally, I have Supershot on STEAM from one of the humble bundles, and between Firewatch and Shadow Warrior, I'm more likely to play Shadow Warrior. So that's what I voted for.

I haven't done this mysel, but theoretically, could you check "Gift this order" during checkout and buy the bundle as a gift? That way you will receive a code; you could redeem only the game you want and then give the code to another person who can redeem one or the two other games?

With all the changes coming in, some good, some bad (mainly the latter in my opinion), can we at least have the ability to sort the catalog by current price?
