Rise of the Triad 2013 is free on the front page of GOG right now. Limited copies available.

Thanks for the heads up!

I've been curious about that game, but never enough to pull the trigger. This is perfect.

 

[Delusibeta]

And GOG just got flattened. Better luck next time.

 

[Shadownet]

I played it for free through Steam Family Sharing and I still wouldn't recommend it at the price of free.

So someone need to pay me to play it?

 

[JaseC]

Anyone know how many units the most recent SimCity game sold?

1.1m in its first two weeks, with sales thereafter dropping like a lead balloon (relatively speaking) to hit 1.3m after a month. If Skylines' sales remain constant, it'll hit 900k at the two-week mark and, funnily enough, hit 1.3m come April 10th (i.e. ultimately match SimCity's first-month performance).

 

[GaussTek]

Jesus, people are hammering GOG because of Rise of the Triad? -___-

Anyway, I think I managed to get mine, but I guess I have to wait to get the confirmation e-mail first.

 

[crazyrabbits]

Looks like the site's getting hammered. Don't mind another entry in the GOG library, but this is tough. Maybe it'll clear up in a bit.

 

[Hero Prinny]

The horror

Sup guys.

ouch, and here i thought my connection was shit once everyone gets home(its so bad I can't play online games cause it lags to the point where its just unplayable) but that takes the cake.

Free's free.

Not bad for word-of-mouth grassroots "advertising", and I suspect it'll continue to do well in the long term instead of fizzling out.

Tried but I cant get through.

 

[chronomac]

I can get to GOG's homepage, hit log in, and put in my password but then I keep getting the "We've overwhelmed..." error.

Who said anything about playing?

 

[Hero Prinny]

got a key without any hassle at all. just took an extra second or two to load the page. idk what that game is but free is free bruh.

 

[Dsyndrome]

Damn you work restrictions not letting me get free games at GOG...

 

[someguyinahat]

I think There came an echo has a neogaf emoticon.

That's exactly it. And now, you all* have a chance at getting it for yourself!

*not all

 

[Baron_Calamity]

"Thanks! You will get your game soon."

Victory!

Steam key?

 

[someguyinahat]

Steam key?

If it's on GOG, you'll likely get a DRM-free copy, so no.

 

[Bigby]

Steam key?

Nevah on GOG.

 

[Baron_Calamity]

Steam key?

Does that answer your question?

A few questions for SteamGaf before the sales roll over.

1. Does Assassin's Creed 2 still require an internet connection to play?

2. Do Brotherhood or Revelations require any interaction with Uplay?

3. Does 3 still run badly on AMD gpus?

Paging Jasec...

I'm not sure about question #3

Brotherhood and AC2 are not part of the sale unfortunately.

Revelations does require uPay. I think only the first AC doesn't.

Thanks for the heads up, but looks like I might be too late, homepage won't even load

2. Do Brotherhood or Revelations require any interaction with Uplay?

3. Does 3 still run badly on AMD gpus?

1. Assassin's Creed 2 dropped their "always online" requirement, but it still requires the game be launched through Uplay.

2. Both Brotherhood and Revelations require Uplay. Launching these games through Steam will launch Uplay.

3. For performance issues in AC3, check out the PCGW article on it. It looks like the only issues with AMD is that the game has terrible performance when running under Crossfire (multiple GPUs).

In an effort to promote our services, we have set fire to our web server. Enjoy!

 

[MrNelson]

Hmm, I thought they were all on sale.

At least I'm ready for when they actually do go on sale then, thanks!

 

[Parsnip]

I was tempted to pick up some of the older AC games on Steam, I always played them on 360 before. But alas, they are not on sale for some reason. So I grabbed Freedom Cry and AssRev.

Somewhat amused that Freedom Cry standalone is -75% while Freedom Cry DLC is -50%

Still a better strategy than pretending to close down that one time.

Bring on the weeklies.

3. Does 3 still run badly on AMD gpus?

1) Not outside of the initial key activation, no.

2) Yes. Every internally-developed Ubi game since AssCreed 2 uses Uplay, with the exception of Rayman Origins, I Am Alive and Grown Home.

3) If you're using the same GPU, then probably. The game hasn't been updated in yonks and AMD would have stopped AssCreed 3-specific optimisations not long after it released.

Yeah, I probably would have bough AC2 and Brotherhood had they been on sale too. I did pick up Revelations and AC3 though. AC2 and Brotherhood will probably be on sale sometime this year.

I plan on binge playing as much of the AC series as possible this year with maybe the exception of Rogue and Unity. Going to wait for the prices to drop on those a bit more.

 

[zkylon]

happy bday to everyone, specially monk for being such a bizarrely nice guy

Saints Row V. No longer an open world game about crime, just conniving politics.

I'd play it.

i actually was hoping saints row 4 would have a bigger focus on "politics". not necessarily like actual politics but like doing your presidential campaign against some stuck up old white right wing dude and other shady folks. obviously you don't campaign the legit way and just shoot stuff and do more harm than good and get your voters by winning over turfs by shooting more stuff and other dumb stuff

would've been funnier for me at least. also more white crib

Whelp, time to finally buy the game

 

[SteveWinwood]

This is a... bad idea.

maybe he had already planned for hell

 

[JaseC]

This is a... bad idea.

The best, Jerry. The best!

 

[Stallion Free]

This is a... bad idea.

I would actually recommend he add Far Cry 3/4 to the mix.

 

[paperspace]

Why did the Ubisoft-sale end early?

I looked at the store page for Valiant Hearts a couple of hours ago, it was 11 hours left

 

[JaseC]

I swear the Mighty Quest DLC packs had 30 hours remaining on the discount when I checked their store pages earlier. They best not be pulled before going on sale again.

Edit: ^ Nice to see I'm not crazy.

 

[Tizoc]

Only 1 item on sale today :V

 

[r3n4ud]

Only 1 item on sale today :V

Its 126

 

[Backlogger]

I have gaming ADD, so while I'm really into it right now, I'm sure it won't last

It was announced last August.

 

[r3n4ud]

Was wondering why Oceanhorn wasn't releasing. It's out tomorrow, d'oh! Hope the controls are fine.

 

[zkylon]

dead state is prolly gonna go lower but for 20 usd on sale it's pretty good value

lasted me 90ish hours and despite the clunkiness there's a lot to love in it

I'm more surprised about Atari still being around.

 

[Turfster]

I'm more surprised about Atari still being around.

This is like the 15th incarnation of Atari.
It keeps being resurrected.
