Flash Deals return • King of Fighters 2002 giveaway • GOG Connect • Deals up to -90%

Joy and prosperity! We wish you great games and happiness, and hope that these words stay with you in 2018 and beyond – in the Year of the Dog.

Chinese New Year, Lunar New Year, Spring Festival... regardless of what you call it, it calls for celebration! And so we bring hundreds of deals on games you should play in The Year of the Dog, a game giveaway, new GOG Connect wonders, and spectacular Flash Deals for that long-missing thrill of the hunt.
Check the dedicated FAQ for more details.

Come by the GOG.com front page and grab King of Fighters 2002 – free for 48 hours, until February 15, 2 PM UTC. A classic NeoGeo arcade fighter, King of Fighters 2002 is beloved for its broad roster of fighters and intense competitive gameplay, earning it a spot in the "Top Ten Video Game List" by Japan's arcade-gaming magazine, Monthly Arcadia.
The codes expire March 6.

Remember Flash Deals? They're back on GOG.com! Relive the anticipation, the satisfaction, that feeling when you get a ridiculous deal right before it's gone. Flash Deals come and go every hour – starting with Deus Ex GOTY Edition (-85%), Vikings - Wolves of Midgard (-70%), This War of Mine Soundtrack Edition (-80%), Thief Gold (-85%), and Shadowrun Hong Kong - Extended Edition Deluxe (-80%).
Look out for more sudden bursts of savings with Tropico 5 (-80%), Shadow Warrior 2 Deluxe (-65%), Thimbleweed Park (-30%), Icewind Dale: EE (-80%) and many more popping up throughout the sale!

Plus hundreds more deals all throughout our Chinese New Year celebrations, including Hellblade (-30%), Stardew Valley (-33%), Cuphead (-15%), Divinity: Original Sin 2 (-10%), lest we forget The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt GOTY (-60%), and more as cheap as 90% off.

kohlrak: Yeah, but this isn't one of those gaes, so you're still wrong.

Zoidberg: Yes it is. Go check it.
My current computer does not fit the minimum requirements for running the game, so I can't. What I can find out, however, is that the game does indeed have a ini file with the controls in it. This can be edited manually and the changes will be seen in the game. This means that the controls are configurable (without the in game menu), but it also implies that it's a setting that's changeable by the game. You just don't know how to do it, which is fair criticism of the game for it's horrendous interface (which is pretty much where all it's issues come from), which i wouldn't debate, but to say the controls aren't configurable is incorrect. If it's not in the in game menu, check for a secondary editor like a launcher or something.

You don't have the minimum requirements?

I'm talking about King of Fighters 2002. You too, right?

Even if there is an ini file, I don't care much going through the hassle. I'm fed up of that lazy way, it's just bad UX.

Oh, i thought you were talking about Deus Ex 2: Invisible War. Nvm. Yeah, the KOF games have no configuration options, last time i checked, but that was on andorid. I never installed the PC versions that i got. They're more for backup.

Ok, seriously, why even say that the flash deals will be "gone forever" if you're going to have so many repeats this early into the sale?
Posted February 15, 2018
For now it's really disappointing, indeed. I think it's third time we've got Kathy Rain as a flash offer.

However I've grabbed Thief Gold and Deus Ex Invisible War in a decent price so far and let's just be happy that my wallet is safe.

Nice sale. The freebie I skipped for once as I am totally 100% certain I will never ever play it but thanks for offering it.

RWarehall: Of note: Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak and it's DLCs were added to the main sale. The only new additions today besides Flash Sales.
it's weird, but I don't see it being on sale. :/

I've definitely seen Kathy Rain and Invisible War in the flash sale last night, and now they are reappearing again.

Same here, no sale, just the regular price.

They were 70% off when the promo initially started, and disappeared soon. [1]
After RWarehall mentioned the reappearing, I bought two DLCs with 70% off.
The discount disappeared again.

SeduceMePlz: I don't like flash sales, but with the current format, you only need to check the site every six hours to see all discounts. Leaps and bounds better than the insomnia sales.
When you have to work even that is too short. A schedule of 24 hours, or at least 12 hours, would be much better.

DremPSB: What else was on flash sale?
Here's a list.

Marketing staff must be short of ideas if they have a CNY sale (doubt there are many chinese based devs and customers here...).....oh well its a sale :)

I must have been sleeping during that time. :(

Hopefully they will add the sale again at some point.

Thanks for the info!

Yeah, I saw it too and was debating whether or not to pull the trigger. Passed on it for now. It'll be on sale again in the future (probably a good chance at a steeper discount). I have so damned many games backlogged that I really don't need another one unless it's completely dirt cheap.
