Just noticed the deal as said in the titel - Pick 5 & Pay $10 and was wondering if it would be possible to redeem the codes in Steam? All games I'd like to have are available on Steam, so I was just wondering if I could redeem the serials in there? Does anyone know?

Thanks in advance!

No, GOG games are DRM free and you don't get or need a key to be able to install and play them

Nope, only valid at GOG.

Yeah, as far as I know, nothing you buy on GOG is redeemable on Steam or come in the form of a Steam code.

Does Steam give you codes for GOG.com?

Although I hold no ill will towards steam, I'd still like to encourage the OP to give the GOG promo a try. Like Iain said, the installers are DRM free and available to download play anywhere, and in some regards better than steam.

In his defense buying Steam keys on other sites is pretty damn common.

OP, it frustrates a lot of us that this question is always asked because the core philosophy of GOG.com is DRM free downloads, the opposite of Steam.

Don't remember GOG ever offering Steam Keys for any game. So the answer to your question is no, all GOG games don't come with Steam Keys and are redeemable only on GOG.

Sorry for the incredibly late respons to all these replies. As is probably quite noticable, I prefer having my games on 1 platform and (possibly unfortunate now) this is Steam, not GoG..

And my apologies if this question was asked before already by other Steam-users. I thought I had bought games on here before and added them to my Steam, but I must have mistaken this site for another.

I had gotten some other deal already on here, so I'm not completely in the 'Steam-only' fanbase.. Perhaps if I had known GoG earlier, I might have tried to gather all my games in here..

Either way, thanks for all the replies! Really appreciate it.

Flowius: snip
I say stick to GOG my friend, it is superior to Steam in every way. All the games are DRM-free, older games are modified to work on newer systems, prices are low, the community is the nicest on the web and, of course, they sell Sacrifice. Buy Sacrifice, trust me, it's on sale right now, it's one of the best games ever made, but one of the least-known as well.

Hey, while you're here, get the free Duke Nukem! It'll make your visit worth your time.

No GoG game is steam redeemable but you can add it to your steam launcher with the "add non steam game" function

@ Licurg - can only confirm what you are saying on the community at the moment.. ;) Never heard of Sacrifice, will check it out for sure.. Thanks!

@ Foxhack - Duke Nukem was exactly the reason I was here ;) I am still getting the e-mails with good deals. Thanks for the tip though!

@ Reaver - That might be an idea indeed.. Well, I'll sure keep checking the great deals over here from time to time :)

It's a 3rd person RTS game, the first of it's kind and the only one to get it right. Basically, you control your main unit(wizard) from a third-person perspective, and you also summon units, build buildings, etc. Also, the production values are insane - The music is amazing, the voice-acting is the best outside of the Legacy of Kain series, the storyline is awesome, there are 5 distinct campaigns, so replayability is not an issue, and the gameplay is like nothing you've ever played before. Buy it, don't think, just buy it.


EDIT: Here's the link, it's just 5$ now:

I thought Steam had a feature that allowed you to link all of your games to it. You can't download them from Steam, but you should be able to link it so it shows up on your Steam launcher. (how to do this, I'm not 100% sure on. I haven't actually done it myself)
