Disco Elysium is 25% off on Steam. I’m tempted to get it and at least see if I like it. It seems like something I’d love.

That said, I could probably wait another six months, play the games I already own, and get it during the winter sale when it’ll likely be 50% off.

Wreck fest is only $15.99 on Humble Bundle’s website. I may get that instead.

Just spotted the Kane & Lynch collection on Humble Bundle for £3.

Oh man this link so heavy, I just need to drop it somewhere.

Do I even want to ask what that is?

One of the files is called WaifuHugger so probably not.

It's a prototype of my current project.

There is, in fact, a completely non-pervy reason for that.

It's being reported that GTA V will be available for free between today and the 21st on the Epic Games Store, to keep forever as long as you redeem it. 

Edit: It seems like it will unlock at 4pm UK time.

Update: 11:58 a.m. ET: “We are currently experiencing high traffic on the Epic Games Store,” Epic announced on Twitter this morning. Epic says users are currently encountering slow load times, 500 errors, and crashes.

My first thought was "Well, now I have a good reason to join Epic Games Store"

then I realize I've 100%ed it twice, and have no interest in the multi.

[Baddar]

Managed to get on to redeem it. The £10 bonus credit should come in handy too. 

[GhostMachine]

I tried to get it last night, but their verification e-mails take about 5 to 10 minutes to come through, and it kept saying my 2 step verification codes were invalid. Tried 3 different codes then gave up.

 

[Baddar]

Yeah the verification code took longer than other sites would usually send them. Worked for me though, just haven't tried to download it yet.

[GhostMachine]

i may go back and do it again later this evening. Won't be downloading it until I free up some hard drive space.

Alan Wake is just over £1 online, presumably because it's joining Game Pass in a week.

A real blast of a game, this. American Nightmare is worth a shot too but it's not as compelling.

Plus, you get to murder a horde of demons during a metal concert using pyrotechnics. The song itself's a damn good one too, has an early post-Sabbath Ozzy vibe to it.

[Baddar]

I bought it.

I remember loving it, my first game on Xbox. Will definitely play through it again at some point. The relatively small download file was also a bonus.

[Bobfoc]

I saw Alan Wake as a good game that was a few niggling flaws away from being great. Brutal Legend was another such game released at a similar time.

Epic Games' freebies keep on coming. The next few weeks, according to a leak:

Civilization VI - May 21st

Borderlands: The Handsome Collection - May 28th

Ark: Survival Evolved - June 4th

@AnTEOLnio Inoki, Pillars of Eternity 2 is 50% on Steam. 

[TEOL]

Don't I have enough games Meacon?
