Limited-quantity deals round-the-clock | Tired-looking sheep.



UPDATE: Time to go to bed, everyone! It's been a fun, intense, coffee-fueled week but the sheep has finally saled on this Insomnia sale so everyone can now get their (hardly needed) beauty sleep. Or go try out those fine-looking games they snagged moments before stocks disappeared. So long and don't let the bedbugs bite. Slay them for precious XP, instead.

Hey GOG,
can you add browser notifications for new deals?

On the other hand, simply offering a list of deals would be much faster.

mkess: Funny. I look for exact the opposite. The uncensored versions of games. Sometimes it is hard to get them in germany.

MarkoH01: Regarding nudity in games it is easy to get those games in Germany - unfortunately it i not the same with violence/gore.
so nude is not crude, but crude is brute in germany?
weird way of looking at things there, as for nude.... the whole world has watched enough of that i guess.

I know. I am looking for Violence. As example: the old Fallout 1 or 2 games were censored. It is totally different to play this game, setting the president on fire in fallout 2. It's more satisfying to see him burn and stumble,before dropping dead as charcoal. Instead of simple falling down, with no visible injury.

Did you know, that you are not able to solve all quests in Fallout, because they cut out all children?

Or that the german version of "Sleeping Dogs" is much more difficult, because they cut out most of the finishers? Besides that the version wasn't patched properly.

Or try to play "Dying Light", a good game in my opinion, without jumping through a few hoops, because some people think zombie games should be on the "Index"

And yes, nudity is far less a problem here in germany than brutality. Maybe they should use the same scale for games as for movies. They aren't so different. They are both art.

If only the deals were better, these are pretty much the regular sale discounts.

well i dont know, cause the games are not in the same order as on the list

Dead Synchronicity: Tomorrow Comes Today 75% $4.99
Hunie Pop 60% $3.99

might be the onese i want to try... but if the list on that site is all the games, i guess i am not waiting for these 2 to recyclr again.

You do realize the remaster is relatively new?
Posted March 21, 2016
There seems to be a definite slowdown on the already seen games.
Not by much though.

Hunie Pop is back again, now somebody explain to me how does that count as simulation?!

That's easy, it's a 'dating' simulator. I hear they are very popular in Japan.

Back OT:
Xenonauts is $8.50

and gone. That didn't last long.

Some Ethan Carter game is $5 now.

This goes a bit OT but since the games are already repeating: even if they would treat games like art we (Germans) still would have problems with violence the same we have already with movies (BPJM, Index ect.). What you might mean is that having things like swastikas in games would not be a problem if the games were treated like art (which at the moment is not the case).
