With 700+ games discounted up to 90% off, daily special Bundle Deals, a constant stream of exciting Flash Sales, and some fantastic surprise giveaways, we launch into the season of gaming joy!

The biggest celebration of DRM-Free gaming this season is right now, right here on GOG.com! It's warm and nice outside, the summer draws ever closer, so let's make sure it's full of fantastic games. There's no one good way to spend your summer, but we know well that gaming can make every single one of them better. So, whether you plan to stay inside, hike into the wilderness, or take a boat into the calm sea, we'll make sure your laptop is filled with great DRM-Free games you can enjoy anytime, anywhere. To that end, we're holding our [url=http://www.gog.com]2014 DRM-Free Summer Sale!

Each day we'll present you with at least two special Bundle Deals with a selection of of great classics and indies available up to 90% off! As usual, you'll be able to buy just selected titles out of the bundle with a slightly lower discount, or complete your collection with just the ones you're missing, retaining the higher discount rate. Let's take a look at our offers for today, shall we?

Today, we seriously mix things up to bring you both lighthearted comedy as well as dark and morbid horror. The Legacy of Kain Saga is the Full House of gaming with its family themes and colorful presentation. Across four episodes ironically titled Soul Reaver, Soul Reaver 2, Blood Omen 2, and Defiance the series explores the relation between Kain, a authoritative father with obvious god complex, and Raziel, his rebellious son with questionable fashion sense. The story also includes many of their relatives from extended family, that cannot help but to make a mess in their imaginary homeland called Nosgoth. Hilarity ensues! All this cheerful moments for only $5.96 (that's 75% off!). The other of our offers today, is bound to chill the blood in your veins with its terrifying setting alone. The Deponia Complete Trilogy takes place on a distant planet. A planet, that long ago must have been not so different from our own Earth. Yet now, it is a grim and dark place that suffered a tragic environmental disaster. The surface of the planet is now completely covered with waste. Toxic rain flushes the pollution deep into the ground, poisoning it and making the land barren. Way above, there's the remaining enclave of civilization, housing the remnant of the human race. Now imagine one of them, a defenseless girl, falls down to the toxic junkyard below. Even though she doesn't die instantly poisoned with every imaginable toxin, her future looks grim. The wasteland is filled with danger, and soon she'll find out that she is not alone among the towering piles of garbage. What strange mutated monsters could have survived in such conditions? And what do they eat? The horror! All the thrills for just $11.97 (that's 80% off!). There you have it, a mix of laughter and cries of despair to fill your weekend with gripping gaming. Or did we overdo the mixing?

On top of that, almost all of our catalog has been discounted by up to 50%. On top of that, our front page is overflowing with excellent Flash Sales on single games. You can grab them up to 90% as well, but don't take to long, as they come and go pretty fast! Why don't you head out to GOG.com front page, and see what's happening right NOW!

cmdr_flashheart: Wait, guys, this thread was posted 15 hours ago, and if we expect them all to appear in a 24 hour span, then that means that there's still 9 hours or so left.
Don't say that. I want to get to bed in the next hour or so. Otherwise tomorrow is going a long day.

skeletonbow: Does anyone still finding themselves becoming increasingly tempted to buy a particular game even though they've no real interest in it but for some reason feel increasingly compelled to buy it anyway?
Always.

To controll myself, I was told : Buy a game only if you are totally sure that you will complete it in the next 6 months.

To tell you the truth, it helps but only a little... ;)

I have extra tape if you want some for your eyes. ;)
If any unfortunate soul missed the opportunity to get Torchlight, let me know. :)

Ugh, why!

So if I decide to go to bed, how often do I have to wake up to make sure I don't miss it?
As much as I want to know what the next freebie is, I must retire for the evening.

Nope. I am saving for a house, so I don't get to spend money on games.

But, I am happy with the free games I got. =D

You might as well go catch some sleep as you're going to miss it somehow anyway... ;oP

*runs*

Yeah, it should run until 9PM EST I think. As an aside, I have to say that I absolutely love the fact that the world runs supposedly on UTC as the global time standard but that most businesses time everything they do in the world on North American time usually in the EST timezone's business hours. I love living in the EST timezone because of that. :)

The rest of the world knows it as "Eastern Standard Time" with respect to North America, but over here we all know it as "Earth Standard Time". :)

It looks like they're taking roughly 3 hours to go from coming soon to rotating off the list, so you'd probably want to check no more than once every three hours (a little less to be safe).

The late bird gets the Banished. ;)

I think all the previous giveaways were 3 hours. so probably something under 3 hours (although this one could be longer since you need to wait for the next set). Don't quote me on any of this though.

skeletonbow: I got a whole bunch of individuals that were genres I like just because they were so cheap even though I already have a dozen or 10 of the same type of game backlogged hehe. Like point n click detective / adventure /mystery / puzzle /whatever games for example, or RTS games, RPGs make up a huge chunk of it. :)
Not from this sale, but over time I've done the same thing. Have a backlog of a coulpe hundred games, with a handful coming from Kickstarter pledges as well. I just don't need to add to it, yet I find I still do periodically. I've added only a few games this sale - a couple freebies (Magrunner, Omerta), the Eschalon bundle (I already owned them from elsewhere, but wanted them for my GOG shelf), Aarklash:Legacy, andIL-2 Sturmovik 1946. Not too bad, all things considered. I did buy 35 gift codes though... o_O

skeletonbow: What I did tonight was go and update my wishlists on GOG/Steam/Gamersgate/Playfire and then import them into isthereanydeal.com and went through setting the notifications on all of them with target prices set at anywhere from < $0.80 on the low end to $3 as the regular max price, a very few at $4 or $5 and maybe 1-2 at $10ish. Going to try to just wishlist everything whether it is actual wishlist items or just "yeah um, maybe whoknows list" items, and with price points set, try to only buy games when a notification is fired. :)
I don't dare do that. I'll only end up buying 5 times as many games. I have a small wishlist here and on Steam, and I've still managed to talk myself out of buying any of them when they've been on sale... so far.
Adrenaline rush? More like another insomnia sale.

Having exhausted my sales budgets I'm depriving myself of sleep to snag the freebies. Hope the last one shows up soon... I've been up way longer than is healthy due to sales and real-life schedules. x_x
I should have been asleep 5 1/2 hours ago, but I just can't bring myself to go to bed before the last freebie shows up.

Hahahahaha! Crap, I've got 301 games on GOG now, and whenever we say such things we're not really accounting properly because how many of those are Might and Magic 1-84 collection and Geneforge 1-233434 with 934234 expansion packs etc. so 301 games is more like 389472347 games on GOG :) Then 260 or so games on Steam, zillions others on CD/DVD, Shinyloot and other DRM-free, various open source games etc. At the end of the day, I could play games 24/7 without eating, drinking or walking for probably 200 years and never finish them or never even start all of them. LOL

I've violated that 6 month rule more times than not then.... :) Of course, I classify "play a game" as installing it and playing it regularly with intent to complete it or otherwise fully experience what it is supposed to offer, or a serious attempt to do so. I don't count installation just to give a game a trial or test-run to see what it's like as officially being "I played it" though. :)
Argh. I have to go to work :( I don't really want to miss the last freebie...
