Good Old Games is offering a challenge to its user base: reach 6 million downloads and then you’ll be able to get Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars Director’s Cut for free — but only for 48 hours. Now that’s downloads, not sales, so don’t start clicking your way through your wishlist just yet. You’ll need that cash for this weekend’s sale.
Not only will the classic point-and-click adventure game be free, but lucky downloader six million will receive the entire GOG catalogue for free! That’s a fair amount of games for sure, so start downloading now; I know there’s some games I’ve purchased and not downloaded yet. Heck, you get three free games for creating an account, so get on it!
My awareness and respect for Good Old Games has really risen over the last few months, especially as I thought that Steam was the final word when it came to PC downloads. Whether it’s offering a great range of retro and classic PC titles to their regular sales, I find I’m spending more and more money.
