Buy any game on GOG.com and get the Witcher 1, too, free for a limited time!
This is the final week of our 5th Birthday Celebration. We're going to go above and beyond the call of birthday, though, and give you guys something incredible for our final thank you: buy anything on GOG.com--yes, anything--and get a free copy of [url=http://www.gog.com/game/the_witcher]The Witcher: Enhanced Edition with any purchase.

In case you don't know about it (how don't you know about it if you've found your way here?) the game has been lauded as:

"a fantastic RPG, and an amazing achievement for first-time Polish developer CD Projekt" (PC Gamer)

and

"one of the most engrossing, mature games in years" (Gamespot).

It's a definite must-have for all RPG fans and, frankly, all story-oriented mature gamers, and now, for an entire week it comes at an unbeatable price of free!

Combine that with the sale that we have right now on Divinity: Dragon Commander for extra promotional goodness, or find anything else that strikes your fancy and get a copy of the Witcher. Buy one for your friends--heck, at this price go ahead and buy one for people you don't even like all that much. ;)

This special offer lasts until Thursday, October 17 at 9:59 AM GMT

Apparently not. My Ultima 4 only comes with Ultima 4 haha. CXUW-Z8K6-V625-ERTH And nothing else in my email. So it looks like that message is just applied to all games in the catalogue, though free games don't give a copy of Witcher.

Yeah, I just tried it too and it didn't give me a Witcher code (that's alright, I already own it)
False advertising, GOG!!!

Already have it but +1, thanks GOG :)

What happens now?

-If the payment was successful, you will receive an order confirmation e-mail from us.

I received a PayPal receipt for the transaction, but no email from GOG as of yet.
Contact Support if you've got problems. They'll treat you right.

Yeah yeah, I'm just pulling yer chain ;) But look again at the picture: it DOES promise me The Witcher when I "purchase" (for $0.00) the Treasure Adventure Game. Though like I said, I don't actually want it because I already have it.

But what if we don't want the Witcher?

I mean, do you know how many people Gerard has slept with? Does he even know? I don't want him, certainly not without a thorough medical checkup! Also, emo manpain is seriously unattractive.

I foresee a lot The Witcher give away in the forum in the future.

I already got it (and two) in the summer sale but it is a nice promo.

To people tempted to get them both with this promo, just watch out for how large those two games are with the added content. I had to buy extra GB from my ISP because I did not compute their size first.

So nothing for me today but I got 3 games yesterday and I have a feeling that the weekend sale is going to be murder on our wallets.
Posted October 10, 2013
Great, this promo occurs shortly after I already bought a game....Thanks, Obama! =P

Thankfully, there is still plenty of games I want to get.

sebarnolds: What happens if we already own The Witcher ? Does it come as a giftable copy ?

Accatone: Yes, it does come as a giftable copy.
Thanks for the answer !
Posted October 10, 2013
Oh wow, it's also giftable if you already have it?

You spoil us so much! <3

The only free-with-purchase item that could ever possibly have any value to anyone here on GOG would be Mr. T's enigmatic hat.

You all know it to be true.

Do you want Vesemir instead?

I am actually completely uninterested in the Witcher universe entirely.

EDIT: Oh, and in a move that ticks me off a bit, GOG seems to just be adding this to people's account then they purchase? I thought there was a code that I could just ignore. Now I have to send a ticket in to get this taken off. For goodness' sake GOG, it's great that you love the Witcher but not everyone does.
