Hi Guys, It's probably very obvious to those under 40 years old.
How can I gift Fallout and Fallout 2 (from the Promo) to a friend.
From the promo link it won't show Fallout or Fallout 2 as I already own them.
Adding them manually only appears to allow me to gift one game, so when I gift Fallout from the catalogue I can't seem to add fallout 2 without loosing the first Fallout from my cart (or take advantage of the promo)?
Help the aged :)

Gifting games from this 50% off promo isn't possible in any way, I presume...

AFAIK you cannot gift games via any promotions I'm afraid. You can gift them full price if you want, but you can't recieve a discount on promoted items.

If I'm not mistaken - any promo where each game has gotten a lower price, without requirements of buying another game as well, can be gifted, as you can only gift a single game at a time (as far as I know).

If your good friends with the person you want to gift the games to you could always log into their account and buy them.

Please note that this promotion cannot be combined with other promotions currently ongoing on GOG.com and it doesn't work if you're gifting games from the promotion!

I'm not sure, maybe its changed since then, but I remember somebody having trouble gifting with one of the previous non-bundle promotions. See here.

Cheers MaverickRazor et al...
I got him to log on and I bought them for him via his account :)

Yeah, I just looked at gifting Simon the Sorcerer to someone and it doesn't apply the promo price there either. Shame really.
