Up to 80% off FPS classics: Duke Nukem 3D, Unreal Tournament 2004, SiN Gold, Aliens vs. Predator 2000 and more!

This week's Weekly Staff Picks: Silver Bullets highlight some of the biggest, baddest first person shooters ever made - at discounts up to 80% off. That's Duke Nukem 3D, Unreal Tournament 2004, Aliens vs. Predator 2000, SiN Gold and Shogo! If you missed our Rise of the Triad giveaway, no worries - it's now 80% off for the remainder of this entire bloody affair. This is as good a time to get in on the fun, as we anticipate a big, important Rise of the Triad (2013) technical update! Soon, you'll be facing off against your Steam buddies on equal terms and equal footing.

The Silver Bullets promo will last until Thursday, March 19, at 3:59 PM GMT.

*Thanks everyone! We're all out of free copies of Rise of the Triad. However, you can now get it at 80% off in the Silver Bullets promo!
I'm a bit confused!

I didn't have Rise of the Triad (2013), so when I clicked on the giveaway button, I got the game added to my library shortly after, as expected.

Why is it then, that I also have an unredeemed ROTT code showing in my gifts section? I only clicked the button once, so I'm not sure what's going on!

GOGbears fucked it again!
Seems my clicking in "round 1" did something even if the effect wasn't visible. Because now after it reappeared, the banner says that I will get my game soon.
Still couldn't get the button to work, though it did work for my friend next to me. I tried going to the site on my phone, without even being able to press the button I got a "Thanks! You will get your game soon." message. Funny enough this now happens every time I try to open the page on my phone o.O Now I actually still don't know if I got the game or the mobile version of the webpage is acting up weird o.O

Sachys: Anyways, as to the promo, I'm vaguely tempted by UT 2004 - but hows the singleplayer - is it just a case of multiplayer but with bots?
I played all the Unreal Tournament games in singleplayer only (I'm not a multiplayer person either) and I consider them among the best first-person shooters. If you still have doubts with UT2004, go see some videos on youtube, especially the warfare/onslaught type.
OK thanks -- hadn't read through the rest of the thread! :-)

Clear browsers cache and check again
Everything seems back to normal. I was able to click the banner, hopefully the game will be added to my library. Thanks GOG!
Thank you so much for the game!
I already own RotT 2013, can I get a copy for gifting? And how?

Same thing I was wondering.
Thanks, GOG!
So, still no emails for some of us, right?!

Clicking the button to get it should eventually email you a gift code, unless GOG changed it to block users who already own it from getting one. It worked for me, but that was during the first period before the sale was down for a while.
