GOG giving away free PC gaming classics

Tuesday, August 16, 2011

If you are one of those people who think nothing in this world is free, it’s time to pay a visit to the Web site for GOG, which stands for Good Ol’ Games. The company is literally giving away two adventure game classics -- for free. 

Solely devoted to preserving computer game classics of yesteryear, this new Web site has announced it's giving away two beloved point-and-click adventure titles: Beneath a Steel Sky and Lure of the Temptress. As a special bonus, Beneath a Steel Sky (71MB) also includes a digital comic book illustrated by famed graphic artist Dave Gibbons.

Many of the games offered at GOG, which cost either $5.99 or $9.99, can no longer be found in stores, and are guaranteed to work on current hardware, such as Windows XP or Windows Vista. Registration is free but required.

Examples of the DRM-free games offered here include Unreal Tournament, Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games, Toca Race Driver 3, Operation Flashpoint, Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee, Simon the Sorcerer, and Fallout. All but one of the 62 games come with digital manuals, too. Between two and four games are added each week.

"The free games are a sort of ‘thank you’ to GOG users who have been supporting us since our beta launch," said Adam Oldakowski, managing director of GOG, in a company statement.
