    Aside from having a massive sale on right now, GoG is giving away free copies of Mount & Blade. All you need to do is login, scroll down and click the appropriate banner.

    As if that wasn't good enough, they're also giving away free copies of 'Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition'. All you have to do for that is click the appropriate banner once a day for seven days straight. You also get a movie with it called "The Gamers: Director's Cut". No idea what that's about.

    Thanks for the heads up on that! I've always been wanting to play it, but was having problems with it when it was first released. Didn't realize they were even doing a big sale and would have missed this.

    Mount & Blade is totally bonkers. I kinda wanna try it out. Maybe I'll find the time during the holiday break.

    Ok, I gave it a try and first thing I get from it is a strong Pirates! vibe from it. This game is pretty awesome and I can see it getting addictive :D

    How do you give away steam keys? I have a couple I'd like to give to my nephew.

    If you have a key (usually a hyphen-separated string of numbers and letters), you just send it over and they can redeem it in Steam by going to Games -> Activate a product on Steam.

    If Playstation owners get on it quick PSN has Plants Vs Zombies: Garden Warfare for PS4, Mirror's Edge for PS3 and Need for Speed for PS Vita all for free, I think it's only available for a few more hours.

    Thanks for that, I just grabbed Mirrors Edge!

    Out of curiosity, how did you find out about it? It wasn't advertised with any off the offers that I could see, indeed I had to use the search engine just to find the listing. Even then it didn't list it as "free", just a "download" button, sans price. I had to check my translation history to make sure I wasn't actually charged! PSN has a bloody awful design IMO. ;)

    Well, it's online store UI functionality designed by the Japanese ;)

    ^That certainly explains the clutter.

    P.S. "Translation history"? Derp. I meant "transaction". :p

    I don't want to come off as too dismissive, I do appreciate their console UI design (XMB was great albeit a bit slow when launched in-game), but Japan and Everything-The-Internet is still a weird relationship ;)

    Not games but I bought the Humble Comic Bundle and they've given me 3 extra copies of Bob's Burgers #1 to give away, anyone want one of them?

    I have download keys for Assassin's Creed: Unity and Assassin's Creed: Black Flag for Xbox One. Post here which one you want. For each game first person to ask gets the key in a PM.

    Well since for some reason people aren't instantly jumping on that, I'll happily take Unity off your hands Chris.

    I would ask but I don't have an Xbox one. Shame.

    Does anyone want a demo code for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate on the 3DS? Nintendo sent me one a few days ago. First to reply gets it. Likely only works in Canada or US eshops.

    Yes! I've always wanted to try a Monster Hunter game, but I'm not sure if I would enjoy one. A demo would be perfect.
