Weekend Promo: Fading Summer Favorites
Get Commandos Series, Soulbringer, Creatures Series, Realms of the Hunting, Guilty Gear Games, and more assorted classics 60% off!
Summer's almost gone. The days are growing shorter--at least for those of us on the Northern Hemisphere and not living close to the equator, that is. Fret not! Longer evenings mean more time for gaming, and we've got just the right selection of games to make the late summer entertaining for you. Action, adventure, thrills, comedy, and strategy--it's all there in our assortment of titles from Digital Game Factory and Blue Moon Red Owl, or--just to keep it sweet and short--our Fading Summer Favorites, 60% off. Let's look at some of the games, shall we?
Commandos Ammo Pack and Commandos 2+3 bring you in the middle of World War II and put in command of a small squad of elite soldiers performing missions no one would think possible. Think Dirty Dozen with captivating real-time gameplay full of stealth, tactics, and challenge. The first title, including the original Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines and the expansion Commandos: Beyond the Call of Duty, is available for only $2.39. The other, containing the game's both explosive and gripping sequels, can be yours for only $3.99 this weekend.
If you're an RPG fan and you enjoy deep games that take some dedication to complete, you should take this chance to discover Soulbringer, a somewhat obscure and underrated gem with gripping storytelling, versatile combat and magic system, and multiple endings. This is one of those games that just suck you in whole. The exquisite writing and great original world construction make it a very deep, satisfying and involving experience that exemplifies the definition of role-playing. This amazing, game you might have never heard of before, can be yours for only $2.39 this weekend.
That's only 3 out of 19 titles you can get 60% off in our Fading Summer Favorites weekend promo. Make sure to click through our promo page to see the whole selection. The offer lasts until Tuesday, September 3, at 3:59AM GMT. Don't miss out!

Weekend Promo: Square Enix Invasion
Deus Ex, Legacy of Kain, Thief and more great games are on sale 60% off this weekend!

FRIDAY 13 SEPTEMBER 2013
NORAD HEADQUARTERS
EMERGENCY BULLETIN
BREAK BREAK BREAK
NORAD HEADQUARTERS HAS DETECTED SUSPICIOUS TRANS-DIMENSIONAL ACTIVITIES ON SENSORS; SUSPECTED INFESTATION OF NONCORPOREAL ALIENS IMMINENT
Prepared remarks from CENTCOMHQ
Good Morning, Gentlemen
As of 0615 hours this morning, we have confirmed massive signs of a noncorporeal invasion force that is determined to directly hijack our entertainment and slowly invade everyone's minds. Fast work by some of our Unusual Circumstances SpecOps team has funneled these aliens into a containable area, though. We have managed to secure them in a select list of video games--specifically titles like Deus Ex, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, Thief™ Gold, Anachronox, and a few more--and the non-corporeal aliens are currently inhabiting the enemy A.I. routines. That means we can find them, we can fight them, and we can kill them.
The space-time rift that the aliens are using to invade is unstable and our physicists project that it will close on Monday the 16th September at 23:59.59 Eastern Time. CENTCOM has arranged for a video game retailer to steeply discount the usual price of these titles to facilitate intervention--they're all 60% off for the duration of the invasion.
You've been contacted because you're part of the elite few who can handle an assignment like this: we need you to buy these games, install them, get in there, and kick some alien butt. The world's counting on you, soldier.
Go get 'em.

In our Strategy First catalog it's not hard to compose such a delicious meal.

We know you'd like to go ahead and dig in, so let's just name a few dishes from our Strategy First and Seconds weekend promo, shall we?
We've got games from the Jagged Alliance series, if you like army rations served with a rich turn-based tactical sauce. We've got Space Empires IV Deluxe and O.R.B. Offworld Resource Base, if your taste in strategy calls for something otherworldly exotic. There's also some hot and spicy auto racing in Flatout, for those of you who like fast food. Finally, there's some all-time American favorites smelling of grilled beef, BBQ sauce, and popcorn in Pro Pinball: Big Race USA. What a delight!
Sounds yummy, doesn't it? But that's only a small taste! Go to our Strategy First and Seconds promo page to sample the whole 60% off buffet! The promo lasts until Tuesday, October 1, at 3:59AM GMT. Don't miss out on the feast!

Weekend Promo: Entertaining Interplay
Get Fallout series, Descent series, MDK, Kingpin, Redneck Rampage and many, many more stunning Interplay classics 50% off!
This weekend, we get back to the basics with our Entertaining Interplay Promo! Looking at this vast selection of classic titles one can't help but to ask: why are some of these still missing from my collection? Almost everything in this promo is a must-have for every classic PC-gaming enthusiast. Luckily you can grab everything you were missing with a 50% off discount this weekend. Let's take a look at some of the half-priced gems, shall we?
It's only $4.99 for each of the classic post-apocalyptic RPG, Fallout. That will leave you with enough bottle-caps to grab yourself a nuka-cola later. In the same price you can get the games from the Descent series. In this case, you should probably invest the money you save into some vertigo medicine. And speaking of vertigo, a game that starts off with a sequence of stratosphere free-fall and explodes into an orgy of bullets and badassery, MDK is available for only $2.99. Get into the action!
That's only a few of 34 Interplay games you can get 50% off this weekend. Make sure to navigate to the Promo Page, to see the whole robust selection. The promo lasts until Tuesday, October 8, at 9:59AM GMT.

Weekend Promo: Point-and-click-a-thon
Get To The Moon, The Longest Journey, The Book of Unwritten Tales, and many more amazing adventure titles 60% off!
Are you up for an adventure? Come, join our delightful Point-and-click-a-thon! If you were to install one of these fancy mouse cursor distance trackers, you could easily see that playing point-and-click games is like running a marathon for your tabletop rodent. The more you play, the more exercise it gets. So, in the spirit of keeping your computer peripherals (and probably your wrists) fit and healthy, we offer you a vast selection of excellent workouts. We've prepared 16 fantastic adventure games, out of which 13 have the time-proven point-and-click interface, and all of them can be yours with a hefty 60% off discount, this weekend. Let's take a look at some of them, shall we?
To the Moon is a unique indie adventure with lots of original puzzles and nostalgic SNES-era RPG aesthetics. The gameplay focuses on exploration of a vast world supported only by a dying man's fading memories. All of the interaction focuses on restoring and altering those pale fragments, filtering out the false ones, and--ultimately--allowing the patient to re-live a perfected version of his life in his mind. How much to visit the Earth's natural satellite? Only $3.99!
One of the most memorable and cherished titles in the history of adventure gaming is The Longest Journey, a magical story of two very different worlds, that seem to be doomed to collide. April Ryan, a young arts student, unwillingly drawn into an inter-dimensional intrigue, is the only person who can make a difference. What she doesn't know embarking on her quest, is that there's much more than meets the eye to each of the worlds, and that they're not as far apart as the first impression suggests. The game is available for only $3.99 this weekend. The phenomenal story had to wait six long years for continuation, but it finally arrived in the form of Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, a gorgeous and powerful vision that just begs to be explored. Yours for only $5.99.
The Book of Unwritten Tales uses the time-tested point-and-click adventure mechanics to present us with an unending series of gags and puns hitting the bulls eye on the fantasy cliche targets. The story, the characters, the settings, and the dialog--everything in this game is a twisted image of the fantasy meta-realm present in our popular culture. It does not stop at that! While constantly making fun of other fantasy games, it's very successful in being a good and enjoyable fantasy game on its own. There's an intriguing story to follow, lots of creative puzzles to solve, and plenty of gorgeous locations to explore. Whether you're looking for some lighthearted laughs or pensive puzzles, this game has you covered! It's excellent expansion, that can by all means "stand-alone", is present in this promo as well. Each of them will cost you only $7.99.
That's only a small warm-up for the full Point-and-click-a-thon. Run to the promo page to see the full selection of adventure games you can get with 60% off discount this weekend. Don't wait, because the promo lasts only until Tuesday, October 22, at 3:59AM GMT, and your mouse cursor has many miles to cover!

Weekend Promo: Ultimate Ubisoft
Assassin's Creed, Heroes of Might and Magic series, Rayman Origins, FarCry 1 and 2, modern Prince of Persia games, and many more unforgettable Ubisoft titles 60% off
Welcome to our unbelievable Ultimate Ubisoft promo. The publisher is famous for releasing original titles, full of pure gaming magic and memorable moments.

Rayman Origins takes us back to the 2D roots of platformer gaming, and reminds us why this kind of graphics and this kind of gameplay is a perfect match. Plus, it introduces a lot of fresh ideas while doing so.
Far Cry and Far Cry 2: Fortune's Edition will take you on a dangerous voyage through breathtaking locations filled to the brim with dangerous foes and ruthless beasts. This elaborate FPS titles were deemed revolutionary--not only in the graphics layer, but also for their huge maps allowing for some open ended gameplay. Are you ready to face the tropical heat?

Weekend Promo: Activate Autumn
Get Arcanum, Pharaoh + Cleopatra, Vampire: The Masquerade, Quest for Glory as well as all the other "Quest" games, and more amazing Activision titles 60% off!
The days grow shorter, the weather gets nastier by the day, but as a trade-off, there's more time for gaming in the evenings. It's time to Activate Autumn, with a superb collection of 32 memorable titles. Oh, wait... that's wrong. What I meant was: 32 game boxes. Some of them contain more than just one game, so the actual number of discounted Activision titles amounts to impressive 55! And you can get them all 60% off until Tuesday November 12 at 4:59 AM GMT. Let's take a peek into some of the boxes!
Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magic Obscura summons the spirit of Fallout into a unique world where steampunk meets fantasy in a creative mixture of imagination and pure isometric RPG awesomness. In Arcanum, you get the absolute freedom to create any kind of character you want and pursue whatever quest you find the most fitting. If you're looking for a game that will drain dozens of hours of your free time and have $2.39 in digital loose change--here's your best pick!
Gabriel Knight, a tormented young writter, came to be a celebrity of the point-and-click adventure genre. The first game he stars in--subtitled "Sins of the Fathers"--features beautiful pixel-art graphics, over 7000 lines of fully-voiced dialog, and a dark story balancing on the verge of madness and occult. The game launched a successful and recognizable series that earned its place in the adventure games' hall of fame. Be sure to check the other two games that complete the trillogy: Gabriel Knight2: The Beast Within and Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned.
Quest for Glory 1-5 is an amazing collection of Sierra's innovative action-RPGs. Each of the five games can be played as a whole but you can also treat the series as one big adventure, as the character and his accumulated wealth can carry on from one game into another. Become a mage, a thief, or a knight and explore the five huge worlds, each based on a different culture and mythology, from Germanic fairy tales, through Arabian and Slavic folklore, right down to Greek myths. Experience the game that set many standards in the "new school" of computer RPG.
Those excellent games are but a tip of the iceberg of Activision awesomeness. There are dozens of other fantastic titles you can grab 60% off, so head out to Activate Autumn promo page and go nuts! Again, the promo lasts until Tuesday November 12 at 4:59 AM GMT. Don't miss out!

Weekend Promo: Fast and Adventurous
Atlantis series, Dracula series, Syberia 1&2, MegaRace 1-3, Moto Racer 1-3, and more Anuman games 70% off!
Here's a thing about coincidences: they happen. And when they do happen, they sometimes produce awkward outcomes. Seeing that we're offering a whole bunch of classic fan-favorite racing games, as well as some awesome adventure titles on one big sale, we decided to call the promo Fast and Adventurous. How clever of us, isn't it? A play on the Fast and Furious movie series title and the prominent game genres in the promo--seemed just perfect. Then, a day after we approved the title and made it final, came the news: Paul Walker and his driver died tragically in a car crash. Imagine, how stupid we felt. Now, all we can do, is to assure you that we meant no disrespect and many of us are big fans of Paul Walker's the over-the-top spectacular movie series. We're going to miss the man who made such a great job of entertaining so many people.
But we're here for the games, aren't we? 20 Anuman Interactive games get a 70% off discount. Let's have a look at some of them, shall we?
So, let's start with the "adventurous". The stories of the lost land of Atlantis have filled our imagination with amazing visions for ages. The adventure games fueled by those vision can set the mood for further exploration of the unknown. Syberia, although it can be seemingly easy located on a map, is no less mysterious and strange than Atlantis. At least in the phenomenal point-and-clicks by the visionary Benoît Sokal, it is.
If adventures aren't really your thing, and you're here for the "fast" part, you'll enjoy the classic futuristic racing titles MegaRace 1+2 and Megarace 3--all presented in oddly charming TV game-show aesthetics. There's also some of more traditional racing, with just two wheels this time, in the Moto Racer, Moto Racer 2, and Moto Racer 3 fan-acclaimed series.
That's only a part of our weekend promo. Head out to the promo page to see the whole list, pick your favorites, and grab them 70% off. The offer lasts until Tuesday, December 10, at 4:59AM GMT.

Weekend Promo: Codemasters Catalog
Blade of Darkness, Overlord, Leisure Suit Larry collection, and more Codemasters classics 60% off!
We bet you missed promos! So here's one for you. And it's as sweet as leftover candy canes, with the entire Codemasters Catalog of great games coming at you with a 60% off discount rate. After your wallet took a beating during our 2013 DRM-Free Winter Sale you might feel the impulse to walk away from such a great opportunity, but stop to think about it for one moment. Yes, the only logical move is to head right towards it. See, it was worth it! There's something new, and something old to be found on our promo page, to start the new year any way you like!
But maybe, just maybe, we should begin with something challenging, to burn all that extra pounds we gained over the holidays. Blade of Darkness (a.k.a. Severance) is an arcade fantasy slasher presented in third-person perspective, delivering a substantial challenge even to the most battle-hardened gamers. Known for gory and satisfying combat it boasts four different characters, each with their very own fighting style, specific weapons, and varied unlockable special attacks and combos. The game was praised for atmospheric level and enemy design, great graphics quality (wait till you see the shadows!), and gratifying combat. Exploring the game's many diverse locations and facing one formidable enemy after another, with death always breathing down your neck, makes the game feel quite on par with the recent super-hard fantasy fighting games.
What else do we have in store for you? Let's see. There are 2D games, and 3D games. Shooter games and strategy games. Racing games and soccer games. Games to cater to all tastes. And then, there's Leisure Suit Larry: Greatest Hits and Misses and Leisure Suit Larry: Love for Sail, famous for its poor taste, but still loved for great naughty humor!
Check out for yourself, head out to the Codemasters Catalog promo page! The offer lasts until Tuesday, January 7, at 4:59AM GMT.

Weekend Promo: Winter Quest Fest
King's Quest, Space Quest, Quest for Glory, and Police Quest series, as well as many other Activision classics, 60% off! Any Questions?
Nowadays, hearing the word "quest" your mind will probably follow the train of thought inevitably leading to the realms of role-playing games. But 20 years ago? In the 1990s, when Sierra Online was the towering mountain in the landscape of game development, the word "quest" was almost synonymous with an adventure game. Last week we did celebrate the fact that point-and-click adventure genre is doing almost as well as in the good old days. Today, we take a look back at the best that said good old days had to offer. Retrogamers, rejoice! For we give you the Winter Quest Fest, with all the quest titles form the GOG.com classic catalog, as well as many other memorable titles from the nostalgic treasure chest that is Activision catalog, with a substantial 60% off discount! Let's take a closer look at one of the adventures that await you, shall we?
Quest for Glory 1-5 is an amazing collection of Sierra's innovative action-RPGs. Each of the five games can be played as a whole but you can also treat the series as one big adventure, as the character and his accumulated wealth can carry on from one game into another. Become a mage, a thief, or a knight and explore the five huge worlds, each based on a different culture and mythology, from Germanic fairy tales, through Arabian and Slavic folklore, right down to Greek myths. Experience the game that set many standards in the "new school" of computer RPG. All that, for a mere $3.99. Let our user Rambutaan tell you a little more about that timeless gem!

Last week we did celebrate the fact that point-and-click adventure genre is doing almost as well as in the good old days. Today, we take a look back at the best that said good old days had to offer. Retrogamers, rejoice! For we give you the Winter Quest Fest, with all the quest titles form the GOG.com classic catalog, as well as many other memorable titles from the nostalgic treasure chest that is Activision catalog, with a substantial 60% off discount! Let's take a closer look at one of the adventures that await you, shall we?Quest for Glory 1-5 is an amazing collection of Sierra's innovative action-RPGs. Each of the five games can be played as a whole but you can also treat the series as one big adventure, as the character and his accumulated wealth can carry on from one game into another. Become a mage, a thief, or a knight and explore the five huge worlds, each based on a different culture and mythology, from Germanic fairy tales, through Arabian and Slavic folklore, right down to Greek myths. Experience the game that set many standards in the "new school" of computer RPG. All that, for a mere $3.99. Let our user Rambutaan tell you a little more about that timeless gem!

Today? Torin's Passage, Space Quest 4+5+6, and Quest for Glory 1-5.
I'm dropping my BFG membership this week. I'm a total sucker for a good sale and have a backlog of way too many unplayed games right now. One of my new year's resolutions is to get through my games. Can't do that if I keep adding new ones.
ETA - Oh and there's a slew of brilliant-looking games at Steam I'd love but am waiting to see if they hit GOG. It never ends does it.
But at least I'll try to slow it down a little.

lol~ TOO TRUE! I have soooo many games that I want to play, but not enough time to do so! Between work, home, autistic kids, and disabled husband, it's a wonder that I have time for anything!

Genki, did not know your DH was disabled. Wow, your time is rather limited, isn't it.
Oh and don't forget the time you spend online at this forum.
