It is that time of the year again. GoG summer sale is live.

Highlights are you can get free games when you spend money on games.

First Tier: Sim City 2000
Second Tier: S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky
Third Tier: Xenonauts.

Probably the free games might change later.

 

[Caj814]

Oooh they're striking before steam does!

 

[ashecitism]

Might pick up TW1 and/or TW2. But not sure I can play them anytime soon. Hmm.

 

[ebullientprism]

Are there gonna be daily deals? I want super time force ultra but I wonder if like steam sales it will be cheaper in a daily?

Don't seem to be daily. According to the page, a new set of deals will appear in like 10 hours.

Most likely new deals each 12 hours.

 

[gabbo]

May actually double dip on some of my older titles I have on Steam (STALKER titles), and maybe Jade Empire if it's a fun title.

 

[CapitalismSucks DonkeyBalls]

I haven't checked my GoG library in forever. Forgot I had a lot of great unplayed games.

 

[FaintDeftone]

Jade Empire is temping, even though I didn't care for it much on the original Xbox. I kinda want to give it another shot.

 

[Shantom]

Astebreed is £2.49. Very good deal.

 

[EnlightenedMint]

Oh shit, lichdom battlemage for $5 sounds like a pretty good deal.

 

[Fox318]

I wonder if Galaxy will have achievements working soon because of the sale.

You can redeem Stalker games on GOG. It worked for some people with their steam versions. Just grab the CD-Key from steam and try here : http://www.gog.com/reclaim

 

[Piston Hyundai]

Duke Nukem 3D for $1.19, and you get Sim City 2000. Good stuff.

 

[The_Poet]

Is guilty gear x2 any good?

 

[oneida]

Is guilty gear x2 any good?

I'd advise against since there's no online multiplayer mode. GGXXAccent Core just dropped on steam, buy that instead.

 

[NealMcCauley]

Thanks for posting. Finally grabbed Witcher 1 and 2. Figured I'd give those a spin before trying 3. Less than $4.50 for those and Sim City seems like a steal.

 

[Platy]

Needs more retro games on sale.

Will wait for the non retro to get on steam because of the dollar/platy moneys percent is not favorable right now =P

 

[nynt9]

I can't check out :/ whenever I click check out it goes back to the home page

 

[BRocknRolla]

Nothing for me right now. Maybe La Mulana, but I'm just not seeing a whole lot of interesting stuff right now. Hope it improves. It's a shame because I actually want Xenonauts, but it looks like there's no way I'll be hitting that amount.

 

[Dice]

nm "select" games

 

[Kaneda Shotaro]

Stupid question, probably asked a million times etc.: can I activate these on Steam?

 

[vagabondarts]

Got a bunch of games already. :3

La Mulana, Olli Olli and Super Time Force Ultra

 

[Phanatic8390]

I hope the Star Wars space sims go back on sale. The May 4th bundle was too pricey considering I only wanted 4 of 6 games.

 

[Tizoc]

Is guilty gear x2 any good?

You want the new Guilty Gear game that's on Steam, as it is a much better port.
Only get #R (on gog) if you want to see how the game played as both #r and the one on steam are the best ver. of Guilty Gear XX

 

[Nzyme32]

Shit! I don't have enough money for all this!

Might pick up TW1 and/or TW2. But not sure I can play them anytime soon. Hmm.

If you have them on Steam, you can use the key to redeem a backup via GoG

 

[Lafazar]

Stupid question, probably asked a million times etc.: can I activate these on Steam?

No, not ever. GOG is staunchly anti-DRM.

If you really want a DRM-free download plus a Steam Key, you can get that sometimes on the Humble Store/Humble Bundles.

hm? does this work mine aren't working.

Are there any valid reasons to play #R anymore? I used to be a huge GGXX fan, but haven't really paid attention to the changes in the most recent versions.

All I remember is that the stages are different, they took out blood, and there's a bunch of new mechanics that feel kinda unnecessary...

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

So, what are the rules for GOG sales? Is there a Steam Daily equivalent?

 

[suberzat]

Nothing really caught my eye

 

[Majukun]

the last federation seems interesting..anyone tried it already?

 

[Linkark07]

So far only bought Act of War. Loved that game (still has my physical copy though).

Waiting for Star Wars Battlegrounds and possibly Trails in the Sky and Shadow Warrior.

 

[Avinexus]

Yeah, it worked for one of my Stalker games a couple months back.

 

[Nzyme32]

[Anteater]

might pick up prince of persia sands of time if they put it on sale

 

[Tenebrous]

Witcher 3 on sale - Yours for just £44.99! Laughable, really.

 

[PuppetSlave]

Picked up alcatraz 1954. Heard it was kinda good but quite short but at that price it doesn't matter that much.

 

[Dice]

So, what are the rules for GOG sales? Are their a Steam Daily equivalent?

They never go cheaper than they first show, they tend to rotate out quickly, but they repeat before the whole thing is over. They have a bigger range now with all the newer games, but they'll spam 80% discounts on old games pretty often. They love doing package deals where you have to get them all for the sweet discount and it's dramatically worse even unchecking one, but if you already own titles in it they'll pull those out of the price. Oh, and you actually own what you buy!

It's only been out 2 weeks...

Let me know the prices for the Call of Duty titles during the Steam sale.
Witcher 3 is basically brand new.

If I can find the keys, I will do so.

 

[Lucifon]

I want to grab some of these but then feel like I should just wait for the Steam sale as I'd rather have them there...

 

[Tenebrous]

£39.99 to preorder the new COD game. I just don't see why CD Projekt Red get a pass for pricing a PC game at release for £49.99... I'm just glad I got it on day one for £29.99.

£29.99 is still a lot, I paid £13 for a copy of The Witcher 3 GoG code .

Might as well go as low as possible..lol.

Accent Core Plus changed the story mode completely, so there's that.

 

[spikejaw]

Thinking about Baldur's Gate Enhanced Editions... Does anybody know if they've finally patched out all the bugs?

 

[vagabondarts]

I'm hoping for this one to go on sale. Been wanting it for awhile.

 

[Houndi101]

The DnD Remade packet worth it? I already have regular gog versions of Baldur 1 & 2.

 

[Mephala]

Nothing I want at the moment.

Guys, buy Mount & Blade: Warband if you don't own it yet. Fantastic.

 

[stuminus3]

Now that GOG Galaxy exists I'm sorely tempted to buy DRM-free versions of all my Steam games.

DON'T DO IT, ME!

 

[Bytes]

No discount on The Witcher 3 Expansion Pass. That is not a hopeful sign that it will get a discount during the Steam Summer Sale :/

 

[human onion]

Aww yeah it begins!
