Starting on this Thursday, we'll have The Witcher 2 on an eye-popping 40% off discount for 48 hours AND we're bundling in a free copy of The Witcher: Enhanced Edition with any purchase of The Witcher 2. We'll be running this from 11.00 GMT on Thursday 8 December until 10.59 GMT on 10 December, and it's the best bargain we're going to have on the Witcher series this holiday season!

Then, on Saturday, we will start a season of holiday celebrations by awarding a number of game codes to you guys! We'll have copies of Master of Orion I + II, courtesy of GOG and Atari, copies of Realms of Arkania I + II, and lots of codes for $5.99 and $9.99 games. We'll be giving them away through social media (that's Facebook and Twitter) as well as through our forums right here on GOG.com! Be sure to check in with us this weekend and you just might win an awesome game or two from us.GOG

The above is only an excerpt. Here's the source.

I am psyched! I'll be cleaning up my wishlist this holiday for sure! :D

Yeah just read it on their website. Some very nice deals here. Good time to get TW2 and TW1 if you are considering it.

Edit: maybe they should have made it like 50-60% instead tbh.

I was actually hoping they would do The Witcher for 4.99$ again so I can buy the first game, see if I like it, and then decide on whether I want the second game, but I guess that won't be the case!

And so the GOG.com Holiday Celebrations begin!

Today we're starting our holiday celebrations as promised with a 48 hour sale of The Witcher 2 for just $23.99--with The Witcher: Enhanced Edition for free! Celebrate the holidays by giving that special someone in your gaming life over a hundred hours of nonlinear mature RPG goodness, filled with intricate plots, beautiful visuals, and intense action, or pick it up for yourself if you haven't yet.

This is the best price we've had on the Witcher franchise so far--and a better price than we'll have on these two games when the holiday sale proper starts on Monday--so there's never been a better time to get these awesome games from our sister company CD Projekt RED. GOG

I hope so too. That way many of those foolish publishers will realize that punishing legitimate consumers with DRM is not the way to go!

Where are you from? And this will be the best offer that they will have on The Witcher series this holiday according to them. Once this is over, both games will be 50% off.

Many seem to do that. They got the first game, then realized the game was on GOG as well and bought it there too.

I was wondering whether I should wait till The Witcher: Enhanced Edition is 50% off so that I can play the first game and see if I like the series before buying the second, but after watching the video reviews on IGN and GameTrailers for the first and the second game, I think I'll go for the deal currently present on GOG. I am simply too hyped now. xD

Well the first and 2nd game play in their own ways so even if you like or dislike the first one it dont say if you would like / dislike the other one.

Well im not sure what kind of games you have played... So im not sure how to describe the games. Both games have "ripple" effects on the story. Things change and you have the ability to complete a lot of quests in more then one way or choices that lead you on some other path (its more noteable in TW2 however). However the gameplay is whats different in the two games.

Since I will be away for almost 2 weeks from my apartment and desktop computer for holidays, soon, any recommendations on what old-school games I should try out? I am favouring RTS and RPG games.

Empire Earth is fantastic, and free. I have no idea how anyone could pass this up, played this game around 7 years ago, loved it do death.
