I'm wondering what the largest amount of games has been given away in a single giveaway on GoG? I'm curious to hear numbers larger than the 21 game giveaway I hosted(with contributions from others) in May (concurrently with a 5 game mini-giveaway for newcomers).

Probably AnonymousGiftBot's giveaway back in 2011.

ne_zavarj's giveaways of the last couple of years were pretty massive

This one, I think :

Johnki had a pretty big one early this year, can't remember what it was called, though.

Ah yes I remember that one - that definitely tops the charts in terms of giveaways :) I was referring to individuals or group giveaways though :)

Nice to see you checking out a post with the word "giveaway" in the title. I would have thought your shields(filter) would be raised :) Wow thanks for the link, I (mis?)counted 303 codes there. I realise that it can be difficult to quantify 303 codes vs $200 of GoGs, especially when the majority of those codes come from bundles but I was definitely curious to see the efforts some have gone to with giveaways :)

Maybe one by Skystrider back in 2011? Can't find the link though.

Thanks for the links everyone, I've got a much better idea of how big some of these giveaways can be :)

Ah, found it: http://www.gog.com/forum/general/the_witcher_2_2_0_countdown_give_away/page1

15 copies of The Witcher 2 (back when the price was over USD40 something, I think, if I remember correctly) plus 20 GOG games.

In terms of pure $$$ value, the biggest ones that I have seen were probably Skystrider's Witcher 2 giveaways:

I think Skystrider gave away around 30 copies of The Witcher 2 plus a ton of other GOG games. Keep in mind, this was when the price of the game was around $50 (if I recall correctly).

That one was pretty big indeed...
Unfortunately I left with an duplicated Trine 2 key... (but didn't want to complain, so, nobody's fault but mine! ;p)

I remember a $100 one from Starmaker too...
and a bunch of other big giveaways..

I cant remember offhand who did it (and too many PM's to check through) but earlier in the year one person gave out $500 worth pf gogs - great GA!

Wow those are some awesome giveaways! Thanks for sharing :)
