Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, Hollow Knight, System Shock 2, and more!



UPDATE: Don't dilly-dally for too long, guys - the free game offer is going away soon! In case you've missed it, <span class="bold">Retroism has also joined the fun</span> with a funky catalog which includes the Hyperdimension Neptunia series, Uprising 1 & 2, Requiem: Avenging Angel, Sid Meier's Colonization, and plenty of other gems you need to discover.



Just when you thought this blissful downpour of deals was at its end BOOM! - our massive <span class="bold">Weekly Sale Vol. 20</span> comes around to prove you wrong. Look at these sweet sweet discounts - and all you have to do is stick your tongue out and taste them! While you're at it, don't forget to take advantage of our special offer: make a purchase on GOG.com during this week and a FREE copy of Double Dragon Trilogy is yours. Pretty cool, right?

Now let's go check out some of the hot stuff that's on discount:


That's how platformers should be: fun, colorful, energetic, and playable with friends. Rayman Origins excels in all those areas and is full of spectacular-looking areas for you to explod--- ermm explore. You really don't want to miss out on that one.

Nothing short of a modern classic, Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun brings back the isometric stealth/strategy genre and gives it a welcome brush-up and a wonderful Japanese spin. The end result is an addictive must-play experience for all fans of the Commandos series.


But that's not nearly all of them. There are 70+ deals here, including Hollow Knight, System Shock 2, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt GOTY, Caesar IV, and Pillars of Eternity, among others!

The <span class="bold">Weekly Sale Vol. 20</span> will last until July 3, 10PM UTC.

NOTE: Your free copy of Double Dragon Trilogy will arrive in a separate email. Make sure to redeem it right away - the codes will expire on July 10, 21:59 UTC.

First DRM somehow makes it onto the store, then sales stop having bundles and extra discount, galaxy becomes a bundled requirement even for games that can be played in single player, and now gifts are being sent as codes that expire.

GoG is getting worse by the day.

Oh, god, did a janitor spike the server gnomes' water supply with Starforce?
More seriously, "DRM" (by some people's definitions) has been here virtually since the beginning.

PromZA: [...] then sales stop having bundles and extra discount, [...]
Some sales don't have proper bundles (i.e., with an actual bundle discount), some do...because some people (like me) don't like them, and some do.

With regards to Galaxy being bundled with offline installers: hasn't happened yet (as far as I'm aware). If you mean something else: Elaborate, please?

That, too, has been a thing for a long time. The only difference here is that they're invalidating some codes that previously said "Expires: NEVER" without any notice (prior or otherwise) that this would be happening. Which is pretty shitty. Put as long as it's only freebie codes that were "no strings attached" (i.e., not the "Buy x/spend at least $x.xx to get this game FREE!" kind), I won't get too up in arms over it.

Themken: Ah yes, that Retroism sale is nice. :-)
Nicest of nice, I might add. Pretty impressive titles on that promo, huh?

Swampland: Has there been an oversight in the pricing of the Icewind Dale Enhanced Edition? It's listed as 15 something Euros for me while both of the Baldur's Gate Enhanced Editions are 5 something. I already have all of those, it just struck me as weird.

Feels like the smaller percentage Icewind Dale received was originally intended for the Planescape Torment Enhanced Edition?
I was going to ask the same question.

I got me Unreal 2 and DD trilogy for very cheap, very nice gift thanks. I feel like the Great Powerful Universe is paying me back for a good deed I made before LOL

Witcher Adventure Game and Raiden IV are very temptingly-priced. I think I'll go for them.

Someone who entirely misses the point...

Ooooooh, DotEmu's trash Double Dragon emulations, what a generous gift you've bestowed us this time.
Posted June 27, 2017
Is Double Dragon similar to the Neo Geo releases in that you could just yank the roms out and play them in MAME or another arcade emulator?

high rated

No, just someone who's been here long enough to have seen a lot of "Certain doom is just around the corner! GOG will add always-online DRM to all their games any day now! You'll see! You'll all see!" posts. Also, someone has to criticize the more hyperbolic accusations (or, at least, someone should).

Unless there's a phase 2 for this sale, I'll only be getting Raiden 4, which in a rare turn is cheaper on GOG than on STEAM. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come.

Just noticed that after the Summer Sale, Blackguards got a price cut. And now it's already on sale for -85%. Tempting but I have to recover after the last sale.

Bambusek: So, any game purchased on GOG this week provides with free Double Dragon or only something from this sale (ie. I want to buy Homeworld: Emergence - will it count??
Any game. I bought "Incoming" from already closed Weekly Sale no. 19 and received my promo code in a few seconds.

Yes, I think that is true.

So aside all the Galaxy malarkey, is DD trilogy any good? Does it deserve the low score that it has?
